Does a thin surgical style glove offer chemical resistance?

Thinner glove materials such as nitrile or latex tend to sacrifice chemical resistance in an effort to offer the best touch sensitivity and dexterity. This style of glove is not intended for complete immersion in chemicals and if so should only be used for a very limited time. Also be sure to check if the glove is compatible with chemicals you are working with.
