The present disclosure relates to synthetic polyisoprene elastomeric articles including: one or more cured blend compositions of pre-vulcanized synthetic polyisoprene particles and non-prevulcanized synthetic polyisoprene particles, wherein the pre-vulcanized synthetic polyisoprene particles and the non-prevulcanized synthetic polyisoprene particles are bonded by mono-sulfidic and/or di-sulfidic, and poly-sulfidic crosslinks, wherein the poly-sulfidic crosslinks are present in an amount of 60 to 79 percent of the total amount of crosslinks in the cured blend composition. Methods of making synthetic polyisoprene elastomeric articles such as gloves or condoms is also disclosed. |
