Abstract :
The electrical properties of three different styles of polymeric gloves were evaluated using ANSI ESD S11.11-1993 and ESD STM11.12-2000. Additional variables were applied to the test methods to help understand the applicability of these tests for measurement of the materials used in the glove & finger cot industry.
