Insulating and Cold-resistant: Aerogel Gloves

Application Scenarios and Existing Issues of Insulating and Cold-Resistant Gloves:

In many industrial factories across industries such as steel, foundry, casting, photovoltaics, ceramics, glass, LNG, etc., workers often need to wear high-temperature insulating or cold-resistant gloves to ensure their safety. However, the use of traditional gloves often results in poor insulation and heat resistance, failing to adequately protect the safety of the operators.

The performance of insulating gloves needs to consider three crucial factors:

  1. The fire resistance of the glove material, meaning the glove should not undergo physical or chemical damage when exposed to high temperatures, such as combustion or carbonization.

  2. The duration of single contact, referring to the time it takes for the outer temperature of the glove to reach and exceed the temperature tolerable by human hands, according to the CEEN407 standard, which requires this time to exceed fifteen seconds.

  3. The flexibility of the gloves. If the gloves are too thick, although they can provide insulation and cold resistance, excessive stiffness can hinder operational flexibility.

Anchor-Tech Aerogel Gloves:

To address the aforementioned issues, Anchor-Tech utilizes aerogel fabric as a key material for the gloves. This development ensures gloves that not only guarantee insulation and cold resistance but also maintain flexibility. The aerogel fabric can withstand temperatures above 300 degrees Celsius, offering flame resistance, excellent insulation, cold retention, resistance to high-temperature steam penetration, environmental friendliness, and radiation protection. These gloves are suitable for high-temperature environments, household kitchens, liquid nitrogen, LNG, and other fields. Compared to traditional cotton gloves, these aerogel gloves demonstrate an improvement in insulation and cold resistance of over 30%.
