Safe use of disposable plastic lunch boxes

With the coming of summer and the hot sun, many citizens, including many office workers, are reluctant to eat out, and more choose to order take-out. Therefore, the use of disposable lunch boxes is more frequent, but there are some fresh ones. Known safety hazards, here, Juhong Packaging needs to remind everyone that for your own health, use disposable plastic lunch boxes safely.

   The disposable plastic lunch boxes we often use are mostly made of plastic PS and various plastic PP. The common ones on the market are plastic PP lunch boxes, PS lunch boxes and foamed lunch boxes. Cooking wine and vinegar are often used in the dishes we usually eat. The product of these two is ethyl acetate. If it is packaged in a plastic lunch box, the ethyl acetate inside may react with the material in the plastic. The result is that the pp lunch box becomes soft, while the ps becomes soft instantly, and harmful substances will be transferred to the food in the lunch box.

   As we said earlier, the original thick and tough disposable plastic lunch box slowly softened after it was filled with food. The reporter inquired about information and consulted experts learned that the lunch box may have encountered dissolved organic matter. Generally speaking, disposable lunch boxes are divided into two materials, one is "PP", which refers to polypropylene plastic, the other is "PS", which refers to polystyrene plastic, and foamed plastic is polystyrene. Various components such as ethylene, polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, etc. Experts said that the organic matter produced in cooking, except for oil, is ethyl acetate. These high-molecular organic matter is easy to dissolve and migrate when encountering ethyl acetate. Experts said that the main component of cooking wine during cooking is ethanol, and the main component of vinegar is acetic acid. After ethanol and acetic acid react, ethyl acetate is generated. Dissolve.
