Does Food Grade Silicone Really Have No Poison?
Sep 30, 2020
Food-grade silicone, as the name suggests, is a silicone product that can be in direct contact with food.Food-grade silica gel is non-toxic and tasteless, and has no toxic and side effects on human body. Its chemical properties are stable. Under normal conditions, except caustic and hydrofluoric acid, it will not react with any acid, alkali and salt.It has high transparency, no yellow, no frost and other advantages, especially to solve the problem of black rubber hose spray cream, blue products fade, soft, high tear resistance, high insulation, wear resistance, high temperature resistance, flame retardant, anti-aging, environmental protection, tensile type, stable performance and other advantages.

Internationally, there are two standards for the identification of food-grade silicone, namely the FDA standard and the European LFGB standard.Food grade silicone products that meet the two standards are non-toxic.
Silicone products are more popular in foreign countries, not so popular in China, many people, including me, have doubts about the quality of silicone products.And some products do have doubts.The issue is not whether it is poisonous, but how much consumers know about silicone products.
In fact, silica gel itself in addition to soft, fall resistant, high temperature resistance up to 230℃ , low temperature to -40℃ , can microwave oven dishwasher, and we usually use stainless steel, ceramic products, there is no big difference in food contact safety.
Silicone gifts, Silicone cosmetics products, Silicone kitchen utensils, Silicone outdoor products, maternal and child products and other silicone products are made of food-grade silica gel, which is very popular abroad, especially in European and American countries.However, Chinese people are slowly beginning to accept these products, believing that in the near future, it will be as popular as foreign countries.
Of course, the product will be broken if it is used for a long time, and if it is broken, it can't be used again. This standard is the same.Silica gel and ceramic stainless steel is the same, if the material has problems or processing technology is not standard, the same will produce toxic ingredients, adverse to the body.
