A surgical glove has inner and outer surfaces. At least one of the surfaces is treated with a treatment consisting of a non-ionic hydrocarbon solution with a carbon chain in the range of 8-16 and containing a hydrophilic functionality with a pH within the range 4.5-6.5. After treatment, the treated surface or surfaces are dried, the glove packaged and then irradiated. The treatment controls the initial contact angle of the surface to be less than 70 degrees, so that liquid material will spread quickly across the treated surface or surfaces, thereby ensuring that the presence of the liquid, indicative of the glove having been compromised, is visible to the wearer or other observer as quickly as possible.内面及び外面を有する外科用手袋。少なくとも一方の面は、8-16個の炭素鎖を有し、4.5-6.5のpHを有する親水性官能価を含む炭化水素溶液からなる処理剤により処理されている。処理後、処理面は乾燥され、手袋は梱包され、照射される。処理は、表面の接触角を70度より小さく制御し、そのため液状物質は処理面を広がり、それによって、破損されている手袋を明示する液体の存在を、着用者又は他の観察者は出来るだけ速く視認できる。【選択図】なし
