Can latex examination gloves be heat sterilized in an autoclave?

I would like to know at what temperature latex liquifies or melts.

Definitely not. Just use a new pair of latex gloves.

They cannot be.

They would probably melt. Or at least partially melt and stick together. Either way you are going to have one heck of a mess.
