Disposable plastic cup

Nowadays, disposable cups can be seen in many occasions. Even in people's daily lives, disposable plastic cups are often prepared and given to guests when they come, so that they can be clean and hygienic. In fact, this is not the case. Using too many disposable cups or choosing disposable cups of poor quality can also cause great harm to the human body. Here I will introduce you to some knowledge about disposable cups!

1. How many milliliters are in a disposable plastic cup?

Disposable plastic cups (300ml-700ml).

Capacity: 150ml, 180ml, 200ml, 220ml, 250ml, 300ml, 320ml, 360ml, 400ml, 450ml, 460ml, 500ml, 600ml, 660ml, 700ml.

2. Hazards of using disposable plastic cups:

1. Plastic cups often have plasticizers added to the plastic, which contains some toxic chemicals. When you use plastic cups to hold hot water or boiling water, the toxic chemicals are easily diluted into the water. In addition, the internal microstructure of the plastic has many pores, which hide dirt. If it is not cleaned properly, it will easily breed bacteria.

2. Plastic cups are high molecular polymers and are not good for your body. However, drinking cold water or cold drinks will not cause much harm. If it is hot water or hot drinks, it will react chemically with the plastic cup to some extent, and may produce substances harmful to the human body, so try not to drink hot water in a plastic cup.

3. Notes

(1) Purchase at a regular supermarket. Transparent disposable plastic cups are made of polypropylene, a non-toxic and heat-resistant material. Therefore, as long as you buy products from regular manufacturers and check that there are no problems with the packaging and labels, you can use them with confidence.

(2) Be careful when choosing brightly colored plastic products. This product may be a recycled plastic product, which will produce harmful substances when exposed to heat. The following methods can be used to identify this type of plastic product: smell it, if there is a strange smell, it may be a recycled plastic product; put the plastic cup in water, if it sinks, it is made of recycled plastic; recycled plastic products are very brittle and have poor toughness, so if you encounter a plastic cup with poor toughness, you should also use it with caution.
