Detection of glove defects and development of electrically conducting former

NBR gloves are considered to be one of the most extensively used safety goods worldwide Disposable gloves can be broadly divided into two many areas namely medical-health and non-medical. The gloves provide the necessary barrier protection against bacteria, viruses and chemical penetration. In the m...
