Are silicone baby bowls good or not, and how to choose silicone bowls correctly?

Silicone baby bowls

With the improvement of people's living standards, silicone kitchen utensils have gradually moved into our life circle. With the continuous development of silicone tableware, the fierce competition between silicone products and the same industry also makes consumers unable to identify how to choose high-quality silicone tableware. How should you choose silicone children's rice bowls?
Safety is an important issue, it is related to the safety of children's diet, so be sure to make sure that it is a safety protection material when purchasing, otherwise it will cause unimaginable future troubles. You should judge from the following points for safety!

1. Raw materials
Silicone raw materials are currently flowing out from the source manufacturers, but the formulas allocated to different suppliers are different, and the materials of each company will have certain differences, such as the difference in hardness, springback tolerance, difference in the size of silicon molecules, and raw materials. Color difference, etc., and the raw materials of silica gel are also divided into ordinary glue, gas-phase glue (food grade), medical glue and other special glue. Usually, food-grade silica gel can be selected for the silicone bowl, which can be completely non-white. Good rebound, no odor and other effects, so when choosing silicone tableware, you must choose to understand the material standards of silicone product manufacturers.

2. Vulcanizing agent
Vulcanizing agent double 24 double 25 is a necessary auxiliary material for silicone products. It is related to the effect of the product after molding and curing. For example, whether the silicone product will emit a pungent odor after molding, and the deformation rate of the product will increase after molding. Etc., the common vulcanizing agents on the market are ordinary grade and platinum grade. The difference between the two is that the ordinary curing molding cycle is higher, which will produce a certain glue smell and the cost is low. Platinum vulcanizing agent is For low temperature molding, the processing time is short, odorless, good fluidity, good aging resistance, high cost, must be low temperature molding.

3. Smell and color
Whether the manufacturer conducts gas treatment, the standard for food-grade silicone products is that after the silicone tableware is formed, it must be baked at a high temperature of 220 degrees for 4 hours and then vulcanized to remove the compound residues and gases in the product, so as to ensure that the VOC testing and certification standards can meet the standards. At present, many silicone suppliers directly reduce this step in order to save this cost. Although the product can be used normally, it cannot reach the target when it has passed FDA, LFGB and other related testing and certification.

The above are the basic requirements for raw materials. When the silicone bowl determines that the raw materials have no effect, it is still necessary to judge the workmanship and appearance of the product, such as the black spot magazine of the product and the safety and practicality of the silicone product, such as whether the hardness is too high. The product is easy to be damaged, and it is not convenient to use, etc.
