Tear-resistance might be something some gloves sacrifce in order to get chemical resistance. I think any rubber glove is resisstant to soap and water.

Found the incel.
For normal use, I get the box of nitrile disposables at the big box or HarborFright.
Years ago when I worked haz waste disposal I used triwall neoprene.
I did once have a pair of gloves melt on me. They were probably latex but it was too long ago to remember.
The chemical I was handling turned out to be meant to react with rubber, to rejuvenate dried out rollers.
LOL. That's funny.
Back in 1962, I put gasoline in a plastic bowl that food had come in, to soak parts and get them clean, and the plastic turned into a puddle.
In those days, they didn't label what kind of plastic it was.
