What types of formulations do natural rubber gloves protect against?

Natural rubber gloves primarily provide protection against dry formulations, such as powders, granules, and certain solid pesticides. These gloves offer a good barrier to particulate matter, preventing exposure to potentially hazardous substances when handling dry products.

While natural rubber gloves can provide some level of protection against liquids, they are not always the most effective or durable choice for handling liquid formulations. Various chemicals found in liquid pesticides may degrade the material of the gloves, reducing their effectiveness over time.

It's important to select appropriate personal protective equipment based on the specific formulations being used. For example, for handling liquid formulations, specialized gloves made from materials designed to resist chemical permeation, such as nitrile or neoprene, may be recommended for optimal safety and protection.
