    Food-grade plastics do not dissolve harmful substances under normal conditions and at high temperatures.

    Ordinary plastics, on the other hand, will dissolve harmful substances at room temperature or high temperature, which is harmful to human health.

    So if you buy a plastic cup, be sure to look at the label attached to it. Generally, the products of regular enterprises will be labeled. And to buy well-known enterprises. I think the two brands of plastic cups, Fuguang and Xile, are good.

    Due to the different production materials and production processes, the adsorption capacity and smoothness of the cup wall are different. Some plastic cups are made of materials that are particularly susceptible to stains and are not easy to remove.

    In addition, the plastic products produced by some small manufacturers cannot meet the national food safety standards (the kind that smells of plastic), and can produce substances harmful to the body after being heated.

    In terms of physical characteristics: cups that are not easy to brush are definitely bad for health to a certain extent. Therefore, it is recommended to use glass or ceramic products. Especially the ceramic mug, it is easy to brush, but also insulated and durable!

    If your newly bought cup is resistant to high temperatures, then you can sterilize it with boiling water for 15 minutes, and the virus and parasite eggs must be inactivated within 15 minutes after the virus and parasite eggs are in a high temperature environment. Ordinary bacteria can also achieve basic inactivation in 15 minutes. If it is a spore of bacteria, it will take several hours to inactivate it by sterilizing it with boiling water.

    However, because bacteria are widespread in nature, new bacteria can be contaminated at any time after disinfection. Therefore, disinfection for 15 minutes can achieve the effect of killing viruses and insect eggs.

    What happens if you drink from a plastic cup all the time?

    Plastic cup is a commonly used water cup, once used for a long time, it will cause great harm to the body, after all, the plastic cup currently sold on the market is added to the plasticizer, because the plasticizer is composed of a variety of chemicals, when the plastic cup is filled with hot water or boiling water, toxic chemicals are easily diluted into the water, and the internal microstructure of the plastic has many pores, which hide dirt, and it is easy to breed bacteria if it is not cleaned.

    How long should plastic cups be boiled for sterilization.

    Some plastic materials are resistant to high temperatures and can be sterilized by high-temperature steaming, and generally boiled for three to five minutes after the water is boiled. If you can't withstand high temperatures, it is not recommended to boil it in boiling water, as toxic substances will precipitate, and the more you boil, the more toxic it will be. If you want to see how high the temperature of a plastic cup can withstand, you can look at the numbers inside the triangle below the cup.

Tie a knot at one end of the straw and you'll see the pentagon, then you'll find a chubby pentagon along the edges, and then finish by tucking one end into the previous stack.
