An elastomeric flexible article and method for manufacture has moisture absorbing characteristics. An example of such an article is a disposable protective glove that includes a first layer; and a second layer with an effective amount of super absorbent polymer dispersed therein, the second layer to be closer to a hand than the first layer, when the glove is worn on the hand. The second layer is configured to absorb excess moisture, when the glove is worn for a period of time, to facilitate wet donning and provide for breathability of the skin, and thereby to provide for a comfortable environment for the skin.

1. A disposable protective glove comprising: a first layer of elastomeric material; anda second layer of non-porous fluid impermeable elastomeric material with an effective amount of super absorbent polymer resin therein, wherein the second layer is the only layer of the glove with the super absorbent polymer resin therein, and the second layer to be an elastomeric layer closest to the hand than any layer of elastomeric material of the glove, when the glove is worn on the hand, the second layer configured to absorb excess moisture on the hand, when the glove is worn, and thereby to facilitate wet donning and provide breathability for the hand. 2. A glove according to claim 1, wherein the super absorbent polymer is selected from the group consisting of synthesized polymers, said synthesized polymers including polyacrylamide, polyacrylate, polyacrylic acid, polyacrylate sodium (or ammonium), polymethacrylate, polyvinyl acetate, maleic anhydride, polystyrene, and their copolymers (or terpolymers). 3. The glove according to claim 1, wherein the super absorbent polymer resin comprises polyacrylamide. 4. The glove according to claim 2, wherein the second layer of elastomeric material contains from 80 to 90% by weight of the super absorbent polymer resin. 5. The glove according to claim 3, wherein the glove contains from 0.1 to 10% by weight of polyacrylamide. 6. The glove according to claim 5, wherein the glove contains from 0.5 to 5% by weight of polyacrylamide. 7. The glove according to claim 6, wherein the glove contains from about 1.0 to 3% by weight of polyacrylamide. 8. A glove according to claim 1, wherein: the second layer includes an interior surface;the glove further comprises a preparation disposed and dehydrated on the interior surface;the preparation includes an anti-microbial substance; andthe preparation includes a buffer that helps resist change in pH during wearing of the disposable protective glove. 9. The glove according to claim 8, wherein the antimicrobial substance is acidic during a period when the protective glove is worn, and wherein acidity of the antimicrobial substance contributes substantially to anti-microbial properties of the antimicrobial substance. 10. The glove according to claim 9, wherein the preparation has pH within a range of 4.5 to 6.0 during a period in which the preparation is moist. 11. The glove according to claim 8, wherein the antimicrobial substance includes an acid that exists naturally in an edible plant. 12. The glove according to claim 8, wherein the preparation further includes a skin soothing substance. 13. The glove according to claim 12, wherein the skin soothing substance includes dehydrated aloe vera. 14. The glove according to claim 1, wherein the first layer is made from a material selected from the group consisting of a resinous material and a polymer material. 15. The glove according to claim 1, wherein the first layer is made of a single layer selected from the group consisting of natural rubber latex, acrylonitrile, nitrile butadiene rubber, vinyl, chloroprene, and polyvinyl chloride. 16. The glove according to claim 1, wherein the second layer is made of a single layer of fluid-impermeable material. 17. The glove according to claim 1, wherein the super absorbent polymer resin is evenly distributed within the second layer of the protective glove, and the second layer is configured to provide a smooth surface for contacting the skin. 18. A disposable protective article comprising: an outer layer; andan inner layer of non-porous fluid impermeable material to be closer to the skin than the outer layer and being a closest layer to the skin than any fluid impermeable material layer of the article, the inner layer having less proteins than natural rubber latex and comprising an effective amount of super absorbent polymer resin dispersed therein and said inner layer closest to the skin having an interior surface with a skin conditioning or soothing substance dispersed thereon;wherein the inner layer is the only layer of the glove that comprises the super absorbent polymer resin;and wherein the inner layer serves to absorb excess moisture from the skin and some of the skin conditioning or soothing substance will interact physically with perspiration from the skin and due thereto increase in ability to condition or soothe the skin. 19. The disposable protective article according to claim 18, wherein the super absorbent polymer resin is substantially homogeneously distributed throughout the inner layer. 20. The disposable protective article according to claim 18, wherein the skin conditioning or soothing substance is a dehydrated preparation. 21. The disposable protective article according to claim 18, wherein the skin conditioning or soothing substance also contains an antimicrobial agent. 22. The disposable protective article according to claim 18, wherein the inner layer comprises polyurethane, chloroprene or other polymer. 23. The disposable protective article according to claim 18, wherein the disposable protective article comprises a disposable protective examination glove. 24. A method for making a disposable protective glove for protecting skin, the disposable protective glove to comprise multiple layers, the method comprising: forming a first layer;forming a second layer of non-porous fluid impermeable material, the second layer to be closer to the skin than the first layer and to be a closest layer to the skin than any layer of fluid impermeable material of the glove when the disposable protective glove is in use, wherein the second layer comprises a super absorbent polymer resin dispersion therein or thereon to help absorb excess moisture on the skin when the disposable protective glove is used, and wherein the second layer is the only layer of the glove that comprises the super absorbent polymer resin dispersion therein. 25. The method according to claim 24, wherein the step of forming the first layer precedes the step of forming the second layer. 26. The method according to claim 24, wherein the second layer is formed having a smooth inner surface for contacting the skin. 27. The method according to claim 24, the method further comprising: applying a preparation to a surface of the second layer, the preparation including a skin conditioning substance that is activated by perspiration from the skin. 28. The method according to claim 27, wherein the first layer and the second layer of the glove are formed on a former and the preparation is applied after the glove is stripped from the former. 29. The method according to claim 24, the method further comprising: applying a preparation to a surface of the second layer, the preparation including an antimicrobial agent. 30. The method according to claim 24, wherein the step of forming a first layer comprises coating a former with a composition that includes latex, nitrile, or PVC. 31. The method according to claim 24, wherein prior to the step of forming a second layer, the super absorbent polymer resin dispersion is prepared according to a method comprising: grinding a super absorbent polymer resin; combining the ground super absorbent polymer resin with a dispersant and water; agitating the resulting dispersion for a period of time. 32.
