TPE wrap is the plastic industry is currently commonly used in a plastic raw material, because it can be molded separately and can be molded with other plastic materials wrapped, is widely produced into a variety of TPE sealing strips, sporting goods, cable, tool handles and other products. And then many TPE material manufacturers have begun to develop food-grade materials, can produce water cups, children's products. So food grade tpe material is toxic when heated, will it cause discomfort to the human body?

  For example, ice grids, water cups, water bottles such as water utensils, after each water, to the next day when used, we will generally use boiling water on one side to achieve the purpose of sterilization and disinfection, this operation will lead directly to the heating of tpe, whether it will produce toxins, whether it will be like the old days of PVC that release irritating polymer molecules?

  First of all, we analyze the processing of tpe, thermoplastic elastomer tpe molding temperature is generally 160-200 (individually molded soft materials), if it is a hard material or plastic-coated materials, the temperature is appropriate to raise the 230-260, and this process, due to the composition of the material formula has to operate the oil as well as other filler materials, high temperatures, yet will not be released or toxic or irritating gases and hazardous substances, is considered a new type of environmentally friendly materials. It is considered to be a new type of environmentally friendly material.

  At such high temperatures, there were no problems. For only 98-100 degrees boiling water, cleaning tpe material ice lattice, water bottles and other water items how can release toxic substances? In fact, many water bottles are purchased with instructions, written in detail above the requirements of disinfection and the corresponding temperature, generally can withstand temperatures above 110 degrees, that is to say, placed in a sterilizer or other high-temperature environment heating, can maintain the stability of the TPE material itself. Emphasis on the stability of the material itself, is due to the polymerization of the molecules have a certain degree of volatility, a long time in the high-temperature heating, and more than the product's withstand temperature, will significantly reduce the life of the product.

  Through the above arguments, I hope to help you have a clear tpe material? Clear understanding. Plastic Bo tell you: this non-toxic environmentally friendly materials, after heating is non-toxic, can be used with confidence. Therefore, at present, tpe is also used in the medical field to make gas masks, medicine bottle stoppers, breathing masks and other products, what is not to worry about.
