All the reference charts I use do not list it; accordingto the NIOSH Emergency Response Safety & Health Database, they do not specify the type of glove, only stating that double gloving is the appropriate prudent measure. I have seen 2 SOP’s from a University EH&S web pages which recommended using 2 pairs of nitrile gloves. Another consideration is to use the Silver Shield as an inner glove, and a tight-fitting nitrile as an outer glove for dexterity. As for permeation data, I have not found anything.
