Patent ID: 8656518

Claim:
A cut-resistant chemical handling latex glove comprising: (a) a cured, liquid-impervious polymeric latex shell, comprising a polymer, (b) a tacky adhesive coating, which is coated on the polymeric shell, and (c) a cut-resistant liner, wherein the liner is infiltrated with a polymeric coating, and wherein the liner is adjacent to the tacky adhesive coating and fibers of the liner are adhesively contacted with the adhesive, wherein the adhesion contact from the tacky adhesive coating (b) to the liner (c) has a shear strength permitting the tacky adhesive coating and liner to slip with respect to one another, whereby, when the glove is on a hand, pressing a cutting edge against the glove causes the tacky adhesive coating (b) to move sufficiently with respect to the liner and (c) to facilitate formation of an inward crease in a glove shape such that the cutting stress on the cut-resistant liner is less than would pertain if the adhesive contact from the tacky adhesive coating to the liner were non-slip.
