reporter survey found that the market for sale of disposable paper cups are roughly divided into three kinds: one is made of white paper, mainly used to fill popcorn, fried chicken and other dry food, can not be filled with water; Can be used to contain frozen drinks, carbonated beverages, etc. , but the temperature can not exceed 40 degrees Celsius, and then is the "paper plastic cup", that is, the outer wall of the cup layer of paper, the inner wall coated with a layer of polyethylene or polypropylene film paper, cold drinks, hot drinks can be used.
people think that disposable paper cups can not be hot water, can not make tea, coffee. Ji Junxuan, director of the National Engineering Research Center for Engineering Plastics, said there was no such problem with polypropylene film cups produced by regular manufacturers. Polypropylene itself is non-toxic, resistant to temperature and extremely pure, and contains virtually no chemical additives. But there are some unscathed merchants choose inferior polyethylene materials, this paper cup poured into hot water, there will be a strange smell, long-term use is harmful to health.
some people will use waxed paper cup to drink hot water, Ji Junhui said it is dangerous, if the temperature of the drink is too high, the paper cup wall paraffin will melt, the paper cup will absorb water deformation. Paper cups produced by regular manufacturers use food-grade wax, which has little impact on health. However, there are still law-making enterprises in the market with lower cost industrial paraffin coating film, may be harmful to health.
