AS NZS 4179:2014 pdf free.Single-use sterile rubber surgical gloves一Specification (ISO 10282:2014, MOD)
Gloves shall be manufactured from compounded natural rubber or nitrile rubber or isoprene rubber or polychloroprene rubber latex, or compounded styrene-butadiene rubber or thermoplastic elastomer solution, or compounded styrene-butadiene rubber emulsion. To facilitate donning the gloves, any surface treatment, lubricant, powder or polymer coating may be used subject to compliance with ISO 10993.
Any pigment used shall be non-toxic. It is essential that substances used for surface treatment which are capable of being transferred are bio-absorbable.
Gloves as supplied to the user shall comply with the relevant part[s) of ISO 10993. The manufacturer shall make available to the purchaser, on request, data to support compliance with these requirements.
NOTE 1 Other suitable polymeric materials may be included in future editions of this International Standard.
NOTE 2 It is recognized that some individuals can, over a period of time, become sensitized to a particular rubber compound (allergic reaction) and require gloves of an alternative formulation.
NOTE 3 Limits of extractable proteins, allergenic proteins, residual chemicals, endotoxins, and residual powder in gloves may be specified in future editions of this International Standard, subject to the availability of relevant ISO standard test methods.
The measurement of width shall be at the midpoint between the base of the index finger and the base of the thumb. The width measurement shall be made with the glove placed on a flat surface.
The thickness of the double wall of an intact glove shall be measured in accordance with ISO 23529, with a pressure on the foot of 22 kPa±5 kPa at each of the locations shown in Figure 2:a point 13 mm±3 mm from the extreme tip of the second finger, the approximate centre of the palm, and a point 25 mm± 5 mm from the cuff termination. The single-wall thickness at each point shall be reported as half the measured double-wall thickness and shall comply with the dimensions given in Table 2, using the inspection level
and AQL given in Table 1.
If visual inspection indicates the presence of thin spots, then single-wall thickness measurements shall be made in such areas. The thickness at the smooth area and textured area of a single wall when measured as described in this subclause shall not be less than 0,10 mm and 0,13 mm respectively.AS NZS 4179 pdf free.
