REPLACED 10/1/2013 by IEST RP-CC005.4: Gloves and Finger Cots Used in Cleanrooms and Other Controlled Environments

This document is no longer being maintained as an IEST Recommended Practice and is for historical reference only. It may contain outdated material and has been superseded by a new version or another Recommended Practice.

IEST RP-CC005.3 updates the material in the previous edition of RP-CC005 and describes parameters and tests that apply to gloves and finger cots, using, whenever possible, standard tests approved by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) or government agencies. Where no such tests have been developed by these bodies, appropriate new tests have been devised. The specific intended use of the glove or finger cot being evaluated will determine which tests are appropriate for determining its acceptance or nonacceptance.
