The Chemical Resistance Chart is offered as a guide and for reference
purposes only. The
chemical resistance ratings are based on published research data. Burney
Medical Supply cannot certify the accuracy of the data and therefore
does not represent nor warrant that the information in the chemical
resistance chart is accurate or complete. Burney Medical Supply gloves
have NOT been individually tested against the chemicals contained in
this chart. The barrier properties of each glove type may be affected
by differences in material thickness, chemical concentration, temperature,
and length of exposure to chemicals.
