The meaning of numbers on plastic bottles (2)

“05″: Reusable after careful cleaning, heat resistant to 130°C. This is the only material that can be heated in a microwave oven, so it becomes the raw material for making microwave lunch boxes. High temperature resistance of 130 ° C, melting point as high as 167 ° C, poor transparency, can be reused after careful cleaning. It should be noted that for some microwave plastic cups, the cup body is made of No. 05 PP, but the lid is made of No. 06 PS. PS has good transparency but is not resistant to high temperature, so it cannot be put into the microwave oven together with the cup body and heated later. Don’t forget to take off the lid before the cup!

“06″: Avoid direct heating, heat-resistant to 100°C, commonly used in bowl-packed instant noodle boxes, foamed snack boxes, disposable cups, etc. It cannot be used to contain strong acids and strong alkaline substances (such as oranges), because it will decompose polystyrene, which is not good for the human body, and polystyrene is a carcinogen. Although it is heat-resistant and cold-resistant, it will also release chemicals due to high temperature, so it is not recommended to heat the bowl of instant noodle boxes directly in the microwave oven.
“07″: Use with care to avoid “Bisphenol A”, heat resistance: 120℃. This is a widely used material, mostly used to make milk bottles, space cups, etc. It is controversial because it contains toxic bisphenol A. Theoretically, as long as bisphenol A is 100% converted into a plastic structure during the production process, it means that the product is completely free of bisphenol A, let alone released. However, no plastic cup manufacturer can guarantee that bisphenol A has been completely converted, so it is necessary to pay attention during use: do not heat it when using, do not expose it to direct sunlight, do not use a washing machine or a dishwasher, and clean the kettle before using it for the first time. , Wash it with baking soda powder and warm water, and dry it naturally at room temperature. If the container is damaged or damaged in any way, stop using it immediately, and avoid repeatedly using the aged plastic cup.
Finally, LGLPAK LTD reminds everyone: try to choose safe materials to buy children’s water cups, use plastic bottles reasonably according to different materials, and keep safe!
