Abstract: The astronauts are subject to the influence of low temperature when they perform tasks outside the spaceship. That the standards of the work efficiency of the temperature of the glove work are programmed is very important.This article studies the influence of low temperature on the work efficiency of the glove work when the skin surface temperature of the middle fingertip is normal temperature, 15.6℃ and 10℃, in which the strength, fatigue, sensibility and flexibility are made as evaluation targets. The experiment indicates: ① The influence on the work efficiency of glove is not obvious when the temperature is controlled at 15.6℃. Therefore the temperature of the middle fingertip skin should be controlled higher than 15.6℃ in glove design. ② The influence on the work efficiency of glove is relatively obvious when the temperature is about 10℃. The sensibility is influenced most obviously, and then is the fatigue, strength and flexibility do in descending order. The temperature standards of EVA spacesuit glove have practical reference purpose to design liquid and ventilation cooling garment.
