Antimicrobial protection may be provided to protective gloves by mixing an antimicrobial agent in a glove material plastisol 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 a cold dip process with a plastisol that includes the following weight percentages of (a) a polymer resin, such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene polyethylene (PE), or polyurethane, 43 to 53%, (b) a plasticizer, such as DINP, 43 to 53%, (c) a stabilizer, such as CaZn, 2.7 to 4.7%, and (d) triclosan (2,4,4'-trichloro-2'-hydroxydiphenyl ether), 0.3 to 1.0%. |
