In addition to Bev's comments, another thing to keep in mind when working
with plastics like gloves and nozzles, and especially with molded parts, is
that the supplier may tell you that there is no sulfur in the formulation
of the material.  This may be correct, but sulfur-based slip agents and
mold release agents abound in the plastics industry.  Sulfur appears to be
a very slippery material.  So it is not unusual to get sulfur on the
OUTSIDE surfaces of a bag, glove, part, etc.  Environmental sulfur is also
a concern, as Bev pointed out.  Got propane powered forklifts driving
around your plant?  You got sulfur and lots of it.
