DANGEROUS reaction of ACID and GLOVES

In this video we react fuming nitric acid with nitrile gloves and show that rather than being safe, nitrile gloves actually make fuming nitric acid even more dangerous.

But this is only a problem with fuming 100% nitric acid. The more common concentration of 70% does not set nitrile gloves on fire. Nonetheless for higher safety, vinyl gloves are recommended and if you can afford them, viton gloves.
