What are KINGFA Biodegradable Nitrile Gloves?
KINGFA biodegradable nitrile gloves are an eco-friendly innovation that retains the superior performance of traditional nitrile gloves while incorporating advanced bio-degradation technology. Designed to decompose faster in microbial-rich environments (e.g., landfills), these gloves minimize environmental impact without compromising durability, chemical resistance, or tactile sensitivity.
How do KINGFA Biodegradable Nitrile Gloves degrade?
Biodegradation occurs when the gloves are buried in active soil. The biodegradable additives attract soil microorganisms, which secrete enzymes to break down the polymer chains or cross-link bonds, resulting in low molecular weight polymers. These smaller molecules are absorbed by microorganisms and metabolized into carbon dioxide and water, completing the biodegradation process.
What about the performance of biodegradable gloves?
KINGFA biodegradable nitrile gloves do not degrade under normal conditions and perform identically to standard nitrile gloves. Degradation occurs only in microbe-rich soil.
Key Features:
• Available in multiple colors, including green, blue, and purple.
• Exceptional chemical protection, effectively resisting chemical splashes.
• Beaded cuff design for easy wear and preventing cuff roll-up.
• Textured fingertips and overall surface, enhancing both wet and dry grip performance.
• Bacterial and fungal protection, ensuring excellent microbial defense.
• Superior tactile sensitivity, ensuring precise operations.
• Comfortable fit with excellent elasticity, reducing hand fatigue during extended wear.
• Latex-free, making them suitable for those allergic to natural latex and reducing the risk of allergic reactions.
How Long Does It Take for KINGFA Degradable Nitrile Gloves to Degrade?
KINGFA biodegradable nitrile gloves are a breakthrough in sustainable technology. Their unique biodegradation process accelerates the breakdown of the gloves in microbial environments. According to Intertek’s testing results, the gloves decompose quickly, thanks to enzymes and microbial activity. The gloves are eventually converted into organic matter and further decomposed by bacteria, fungi, insects, and worms into natural elements, thus significantly reducing plastic pollution.
This rapid degradation minimizes the long-term environmental impact on soil and water bodies, contributing to environmental protection and sustainability.
How Should These Gloves Be Stored to Ensure Optimal Performance?
Degradable nitrile gloves should be stored in the same manner as regular nitrile gloves. To preserve their quality and extend their shelf life, follow these storage guidelines:
• Avoid direct sunlight and prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light to prevent glove degradation.
• Store in a cool, dry place, away from high temperatures and humidity, to avoid premature aging.
• Keep in original sealed packaging to prevent contact with air and oxidative chemicals.
Under these conditions, the shelf life of the gloves is generally 3-5 years.
How to Choose the Thickness and Size of These Gloves?
KINGFA offers a range of degradable nitrile gloves in various thicknesses and sizes to meet different needs:
• Lightweight (2-4 mil): Ideal for medical, food processing, and laboratory operations, offering high flexibility.
• Standard (4-6 mil): Suitable for cleaning industries, food industries, and situations requiring both durability and sensitivity.
• Heavy-duty (6-8 mil): Best for chemical protection, mechanical maintenance, and other high-strength work environments.
Sizes range from XS, S, M, L, to XL, ensuring a perfect fit for different hand sizes.
Will These Gloves Affect My Operational Sensitivity?
No, KINGFA degradable nitrile gloves are made from high-quality nitrile materials, offering excellent elasticity and a snug fit, allowing for dexterity and precise movements.
These gloves are particularly important for:
• Precision instrument handling (e.g., laboratory research, electronic component manufacturing).
• Surgical and medical procedures (requiring tactile sensitivity).
• Food arving or intricate processing (ensuring nimble hand movements).
Thus, healthcare workers, technicians, and researchers can confidently use them without compromising on performance.
