Experts suggest using stainless steel insulated cup, glass cup or ceramic cup to drink water at ordinary times, which is more conducive to healthy drinking water; however, it is strongly opposed to using plastic cup or plastic water bottle to hold boiling water or make tea, such as bisphenol A, which will be released in the high temperature above 100 ℃. However, experts also pointed out that if the cup or water bottle is made of PP plastic, it is non-toxic, because the processing temperature of PP plastic at the time of manufacture (℃) is 180-240, so boiling water will not decompose it. PP particles are natural and cylindrical particles, with bright and clean particles. The size of particles is 2mm-5mm in any direction. They are odorless, non-toxic and free of mechanical impurities, which will not cause harm to human body.
