ABSTRACT:
Antimicrobial protection may be provided to protective gloves by mixing an antimicrobial agent in a glove material film so that the antimicrobial agent migrates to the exposed surfaces of the gloves when the agent on the glove surface has been depleted. Antimicrobial gloves suitable for use in the food industry may be manufactured using heat sealing/cutting of an extruded film that includes by weight percentages: polymer resin (such as polyethylene) 96 to 98.4%, ethylene vinyl acetate resin 1.0 to 2.0%, antistatic agent (such as polyethylene glycol) 0.3 to 1.0%, and triclosan 0.3 to 1.0%.
