Nitrile gloves are made from a synthetic rubber called nitrile, which is a type of polymer. The raw nitrile is mixed with chemicals and other ingredients to create a thick, liquid mixture that is poured into molds. The molds are then placed in a heated oven, where the liquid mixture solidifies and takes the shape of the mold. Once the gloves are cooled, they are removed from the molds and inspected for defects. Finally, the gloves are packaged and shipped to retailers and distributors.
