Abstract

A protective glove consists of two plastic films such as polyethylene welded at the periphery of the glove, whereat at least one of the films has protuberances on one side. At least one film having a thickness in the region of 0.01 to 1.0 mm is made with commonly separated impressions on one side for providing corresponding protuberances on its other side. Said protuberances are substantially evenly distributed over the entire surface of the film and lie at such a small distance from each other, preferably in the region of 0.5 to 2 mm, that the adhesion between the films is at least partially inhibited to facilitate the introduction of a hand into the glove.

Claims

1. A protective glove constructed of two overlying plastic films each having a thickness of 0.01 to 0.10 mm and both films having been deformed by embossing them simultaneously in overlying relationship so as to exhibit on one side a large number of embossed impressions each of which forms on the other side of the film a corresponding protuberance having a height of from 0.02 to 0.10 mm, said impressions and corresponding protuberances being substantially evenly distributed over the whole surface of the films and being spaced apart from 0.5 to 2 mm center-to-center, one of the films having its protuberances on the outside of the glove and the other film having its protuberances on the inside of the glove, and the protuberances on one film being displaced relative to the protuberances on the other film so that the protuberances do not lie opposite each other when the glove lies flat.
