<div>If you are looking for a glove that is protective against most solvents, most acids and most caustics the MAPA roll pruff clean room room glove is the best I have seen over the years. At Harvard we place the MAPA glove over the entry nitrile glove. We
mostly use them for acids and base chemicals but we do double glove w nitrile when working w acetone but not always. We encourage users to change gloves when they think they got any chemical on them.</div>
<div>Gloves are readily accessible (beside the wet benches at all times).</div>

<div>Shiva.. Doubling up on nitrile gloves is not the answer , you need to get the appropriate gloves for the different needs in you Lab... Acid/corrosive chemicals have a requirement by then the required gloves, for the rest nitrile gloves are ok....a few
outfits sell these gloves, talk to them about the different uses and what is available .... What did you use at UIUC???? <br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Recently I had issues with the Nitrile gloves in our cleanroom and I was exploring options to get a better one, its seems that Nitrile gloves are not good with acetone .It has high preamble rate than latex gloves. Based on my internet research
Nitrile gloves are mostly used in the cleanroom, especially in semiconductor/medical production.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Major of my users do use the Acetone and there is always a chance that they will get in contact with acetone, especially when they clean the spinner with acetone. And I am concerned because of this. I want to have your opinion regarding
this before I look into my options.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My vendor who supplies gloves recommends double donning the nitrile gloves, so that if the user gets in contact with acetone/solvents they immediately remove the top gloves if exposed to acetone. Else wearing the nitrile glove first and
a latex over.<o:p></o:p></p>
