FAQ

A cleanroom is a controlled environment in which all incoming air, water and chemicals are filtered to meet high purity standards.

No, it depends on the type of product and the cleaning levels; the required protocols and cleaning procedures can vary considerably.

Cleaning products may need to be steam sterilised (autoclaved) and/or irradiated. Since the surfaces must be disinfected, they may be required to remain moist so that the disinfectant agent has the necessary "contact time". Cleaning methods of different instruments and staff - for example gloves and hands - must be closely monitored to avoid cross-contamination.

STERLING Glove technology combines nitrile protection with latex sensitivity. The production process of these gloves increases the tensile strength, to further increase its barrier function. The process also allows a reduction in the thickness of the glove, so that less force is required to stretch the material. The result is a latex-free glove, but at the same time with the dexterity and sensitivity of latex. In addition, as 50% more gloves were added per package, the packaging is even more environmentally friendly. A customer using an average of 25 packages per month can save up to one ton of waste per year.

Yes, these gloves are created from a latex-free formulation, thus reducing the risk of allergic reactions to Type I latex proteins.

The nitrile formulation of the glove provides excellent durability and a protective barrier for low, medium and high risk situations (similar to latex). KIMBERLY-CLARK recommends vinyl gloves only in low risk situations.

The KIMTECH PURE G3 STERLING Nitrile gloves are recommended for cleanroom ISO Class 3 (Class 10) or higher category. The KIMTECH PURE G5 STERLING Nitrile gloves are recommended for cleanroom ISO Class 5 (Class 100) or higher category. Gloves differ in their level of cleanliness as regards particles, extractable substances and non-volatile residues.

No. Silicone is not used in the production of these gloves. In fact, gloves do not have traceable levels of silicone according to the most careful method used nowadays (FTIR - Fourier Transform infrared technology).

he KIMTECH PURE G3 & G5 STERLING Nitrile gloves have a higher tensile strength than the competitors. This is due to the patented manufacturing process that not only increases the tensile strength of the glove, but also allows for a reduction in mil thickness, thus allowing for a more durable and more comfortable glove.

AQL (Acceptable Quality Limit) of these gloves is 1.5. AQL refers to the probability of having defective gloves (for example, with micro-punctures) within a batch. The lower the AQL, The lower the probability of defective gloves. KIMTECH PURE G3 & G5 STERLING Nitrile gloves exceed ASTM standards - medical gloves standards - for their absence of micro-punctures and critical defects. ASTM standards are AQL 2.5 while our gloves have AQL 1.5. A low AQL for microphones is crucial - the fewer the number of microphones, the higher the level of protection barrier.

Yes, the gloves are static-dissipative. Both categories of gloves are tested with 3 different methods: Resistance with the person (ANSI/ESD SP15.1-2005), Volume Resistance (ANSI/ESD STM 11.12 - 2007) and Static Decay. The KIMTECH PURE G3 & G5 STERLING Nitrile gloves pass all 3 test methods.

The gloves have a very firm grip, making them a great choice for the semiconductor, flat screen, disc drive, pharmaceutical, medical device and biotech industries. The gloves have excellent grip on both wet and dry.

The glove has a textured structure on the fingertips to increase grip.

No. The only chemical interaction experienced by gloves is the normal chlorination process that removes residual dust and excess finish.

The use of Xenon lamps for photographic and/or scientific applications (strobe lights) has been known for decades, but there are many other industrial applications for lamps of adequate power driven by special power supply systems. By controlling xenon pulse lamps of adequate structure, so that they can still be cooled by air, the emission spectrum of the same is caused to shift towards UV (wavelengths from 200 nm to 400 nm, where the visible spectrum begins). These spectral components are very intense and possibly filtered (UV with wavelength below 280 nm generates ozone from the air and this can be a drawback in food/pharmaceutical applications), can be used to catalyze the polymerization of resins, thick film coatings, paints, glues. Elexind has been distributing for years the systems of Xenon Corp., the world leader in this type of systems that boasts a specific experience of over 40 years in the industry.

Brushes and wipes should be characterized by an extremely low and absorbent fiber release. It’s important that the surfaces are clean and dry, to avoid contamination and to limit moisture. Detergents and detergents must be finely filtered and tested to demonstrate low ion content.

For a long time it was not possible to make devices and circuits on low-cost flexible substrates such as paper, PET and polyethylene film, as it was necessary to reach temperatures above 160 degrees Celsius, which such supports can not withstand. In recent years, however, innovative conductive inks and coatings containing nanoparticles of metals such as silver, gold or copper have been developed and marketed, making them highly conductive once sintered. These inks can be used with / screenprint inkjet printers that are well suited for printing on substrates such as paper, PET and polyethylene film, as the process takes place at room temperature. Today, with the UV pulse technology provided by Xenon Corp. it is possible to photosinter these inks without damaging the substrate on which they were deposited with a printing process. The intense pulses of UV light, with a duration of a few milliseconds, allow to heat only the inks, removing the solvent by evaporation, leaving on the substrate unchanged only the sintered metal of the nanoparticles. This process allows the sintering of conductive layers even from copper nanoparticles, with very high conductivity characteristics.
