Plastic cups refer to disposable containers used to hold beverages and tea. Non degradable products are the main source of "white pollution". The most commonly used disposable plastic cups are in beverage stores, hot and cold drink shops, milk tea shops, hotels, restaurants, and coffee shops, providing various plastic cup packaged takeaway drinks and on-site use.
This type of cup is an non degradable product, and many people throw it away after drinking, making this disposable plastic cup a major source of "white pollution".
Plastic cups are a widely used material, especially used in the manufacturing of baby bottles, space cups, and more. In recent years, milk bottles have been controversial due to their presence of bisphenol A.
Experts point out that in theory, as long as bisphenol A is 100% converted into a plastic structure during the process of making plastic cups, it means that the product is completely free of bisphenol A, let alone released.
However, if a small amount of bisphenol A is not converted into the plastic structure of a plastic cup, it may be released and enter food or beverages.
The residual bisphenol A in plastic cups releases more and faster at higher temperatures.
