Some common sense about the production and use of paper cups
Paper cups are a common beverage container. Here are some common sense related to the production and use of paper cups:
Paper cups are made from: Most paper cups are made from pulp, usually wood pulp or recycled paper. These materials have good permeability resistance and degradability.
Inner coating: In order to increase the water resistance of the paper cup, the inside is often coated with a thin layer of polyethylene (PE) coating. This layer of coating can effectively prevent moisture from penetrating into the pulp layer of the paper cup.
Environmental protection: Compared with plastic cups, paper cups have more advantages in terms of environmental protection. Paper cups are biodegradable and can be recycled or naturally broken down to reduce environmental impact.
Safety: Choose paper cups that meet food-grade standards. These cups have undergone rigorous testing and will not cause the migration of harmful substances into the drink.
Pay attention to the temperature of use: paper cups are generally suitable for cold drinks and warm drinks, but not suitable for hot drinks, because the high temperature may cause the paper cups to deform or burn.
Moderate use: When using paper cups, the principle of resource conservation should be followed. To minimize unnecessary waste, you can reuse paper cups, or choose recyclable paper cups.
These little common sense can help us better understand the production and use of paper cups, and promote the improvement of environmental protection and health awareness.
