Mapa Professionnel Liquidproof gloves meet hand comfort
and protection needs for all work involving liquids with a low
chemical aggression factor: water, cleaning products, oily
foods, etc.
To choose the most suitable product for your needs, take into
account the gloves performance and comfort levels.
Quick tips
performance levels
The performance level of a liquidproof glove is directly linked
to its thickness. The thicker it is, the sturdier it is; therefore,
it protects for longer.
ight protection:
L
Gloves of minimal thickness provide protection for
applications in light aggressive environments (e.g. dry foods,
cleaning products, water, etc.)
tandard protection:
S
These gloves provide moderate protection for applications
in aggressive environments (e.g. fatty foods, aggressive
detergents, etc.)
igh-level protection:
H
Thick gloves provide protection for applications in very
aggressive environments (e.g. handling heavy, slippery or
rough objects; concentrated detergents, etc.)

Chemical Protection
Chemical hazards are not confined to the chemical industry. Many people in a variety of sectors.
are faced with chemical risks when handling less aggressive products, such as oils, acids, solvents,
etc. More than 100,000 chemical substances are now classified, and can be identified, due to
their unique CAS numbers. The table below highlights the performances of different materials on
a few major substances. For more information visit www. mapachemicals.com.
Choosing a glove that will provide the appropriate protection for each application is a
complex task, requiring the consideration of a certain number of parameters, such as: the chemical
family of the product handled, the contact time, the level of dexterity required, the associated
risks, etc.
In order to meet the diversity of hazardous situations that exist, Mapa Professionnel propose a
wide range of protective gloves designed using polymers, which, due to their intrinsic nature, will
behave differently with respect to the same chemical product.

18 PVC < C hemic a l Pr o t ec t ion
PVC
Principal qualities
PVC, or polyvinyl chloride, provides good resistance to numerous
acids and alkalis, and is associated with good mechanical
resistance where the gloves are lined with fabric. PVC does
not contain allergens such as proteins or accelerators, and so
is well-tolerated by users.
PVC is a material that ages well, as it is not affected by
prolonged exposure to light, ozone, UVs, etc. PVC gloves can
therefore be stored for a long time without any alteration in their
properties.
PVC gloves are not recommended for situations where they may
come into contact with chemical solvents (ketones, alkanes,
etc.). Contact with these products leads to the extraction of the
plasticisers, and, as a result, the glove
stiffens.
PVC gloves must not be used for
handling hot parts (>80°C), to avoid their
deterioration.

20 Natural latex < C hemic a l Pr o t ec t ion
Natural latex
Principal qualities
Natural latex offers exceptional flexibility and elasticity. Gloves
made from natural latex adapt to the shape of the hand, thus
maximising the user’s dexterity and comfort.
This polymer offers good mechanical performance, even with
minimal thickness. In particular, it has good tear and puncture
resistance, and it offers good resistance to numerous acids, alkalis,
alcohols and ketones.
It also has the advantage of staying supple in cold environments.
N.B.: In certain rare cases, the proteins found in natural latex can
cause allergic reactions. In this event, we recommend the use of
synthetic materials for sensitised users, such as a nitrile (p.22) or
neoprene (p.26) glove.
Natural latex is not recommended for use in contact with oils,
greases, petroleum products, strong oxidising acids and aromatic
or chlorinated solvents. The properties of natural latex can be
deteriorated by prolonged exposure to light, UV or ozone.

22 Nitrile < C hemic a l Pr o t ec t ion
Nitrile
Principal qualities
Nitrile, or Acrylo nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), generally offers
very good resistance to oils, greases and hydrocarbon derivatives,
as well as aromatic or chlorinated solvents.
Nitrile also gives excellent abrasion and puncture resistance. It
does not contain any proteins and has a very low accelerator
content, therefore, it is very well-tolerated by users, paticularly for
long-term wear.
On the other hand, nitrile is a naturally rigid elastomer. Thick nitrile
gloves may limit dexterity.
In addition, they are not recommended for cold environments
(<‑40°C), since these temperatures cause nitrile to stiffen, which
makes the glove more difficult to use. Note, that nitrile is not
recommended for prolonged contact with ketones, strong oxidising
acids, esters or aldehydes.

26 Neoprene < C hemic a l Pr o t ec t ion
Neoprene
Principal qualities
Extremely supple with excellent resistance to chemical contact,
neoprene is an outstanding multi-purpose polymer. Neoprene
offers good chemical resistance to acids, alkalis, oils, greases,
alcohols, petroleum products, ketones, aliphatic solvents and
numerous industrial gases and vapours). In addition, it is a supple
material enabling dexterity and comfort.
It has excellent thermal properties, with contact insulation (hot
or cold), and fire resistance (suitable for applications in proximity
to flames). It also ages well, since it does not suffer from any
deterioration, due to prolonged exposure to light, ozone, UV, etc.
On the other hand, we should point out that neoprene has
poor mechanical properties when heavily stressed in chemical
environments. In those conditions, a thick glove with a cotton
lining is recommended, since this reinforces the mechanical
properties of the glove, and therefore, its durability. Neoprene is
not appropriate for prolonged contact with strong oxidising acids
and aromatic or chlorinated solvents, since these rapidly damage
neoprene.
The table below will help you identify the most suitable gloves for your needs.

Butyl
Principal qualities
Butyl offers excellent chemical resistance against ketones, acids,
esters and amine derivatives. It is a supple and elastic synthetic
material, allowing the user to retain dexterity if the material is not
too thick. As it is quite expensive, butyl is classed as a special-
purpose polymer, reserved for applications requiring very high,
targeted, chemical protection.
NB: butyl has poor mechanical properties when heavily stressed
in chemical environments. In those conditions, a thick glove, with a
cotton lining is recommended, since this reinforces the mechanical
properties of the glove, and therefore its durability. In addition,
butyl is not appropriate for prolonged contact with aromatic or
chlorinated solvents, as these provoke rapid deterioration of the
material.

for prolonged contact with aromatic solvents, sulphur-based
chemicals and amines.
The Mapa Professionnel multi-layer technology creates an
especially supple fluoroelastomer glove, with high chemical
resistance.
Fluoroelastomer is an expensive material. It is classed as a special-
purpose polymer, reserved for applications requiring very high,
targeted, chemical protection.
Beware: fluroelastomer is not recommended for prolonged contact
with ketones, organic acids and acetates.
*Breakthrough time: according to permeation tests carried out in MAPA laboratories, on the palm of the hand at 30°C.

P
erformance levels
The performance level of a heavy-duty work glove corresponds to its
ability to protect the user from knocks and shocks.
A thicker glove absorbs shocks better, and hence gives better protection.
In addition, a thicker range is sturdier, and so gives longer-lasting
protection.
To help you select the most appropriate gloves, we have categorised the
heavy-duty work range into 3 levels of performance:
Level 1: Light protection for applications in light aggressive environments
(e.g. handling light, mildly abrasive objects in dry and reasonably clean
environments)
Level 2: Standard protection for applications in aggressive environments
(e.g. handling moderately abrasive objects in oily or wet environments)

Cut Protection
Fact:
Comfort, ergonomics, dexterity and safety are the principal needs
expressed by users, especially for cut protection.
To combine all these qualities in a Cut Protection glove, new fibres
have been developed: High Density Polyethylene fibres (HDPE). HDPE
fibres make it possible to improve comfort and dexterity without
diminishing the level of protection.
Other technical fibres, such as para-aramide fibres, also provide a
higher level of cut protection.
Comment
The use of Cut Protection gloves does not guarantee total
protection (e.g. when a motor-operated sharp object is used). An
on-site study is recommended to determine the most appropriate
type of protection for a workstation. Do not hesitate to contact our
technical department for further information.

Biological
protection
Many professions, due to the handling operations involved,
expose thousands of people every day to the risk of biological
contamination. In the manufacturing sector, 1 employee in 10 is
exposed to pathogenic biological agents.
Blood Exposure Accidents (BEA) demonstrate the risk which exists
in a wide range of business sectors, of biological contamination via
the skin or mucus.
Blood Exposure Accidents refer to any percutaneous injury or contact
of mucus or damaged skin with blood or a biological liquid liable to
contain any type of pathogenic agent. The most obvious risks are
highly pathogenic viruses such as HIV, Hepatitis C or Hepatitis B,
the very serious consequences of which lead both employers and
employees to be constantly on their guard.
Fully aware of this issue, Mapa Professionnel decided to research a
new solution for managing this biological risk, beginning with a major
challenge: to develop a product that retains the ergonomics of a thin
glove (dexterity) with active reduction of the viral load transmitted
in the event of a percutaneous accident. The Mapa Professionnel
innovation, the BioPro glove, is designed to reduce the gravity of a
Blood Exposure Accident.
