Lightweight and easy -to -carry plastic bottles should be used by many people to use for drinking water, containing other drinks or storing sauces ...

However, Japanese experts Chika Suga shook his head, emphasizing that using plastic bottles in these three harmful ways is too toxic.

1. Reusing 1 -time water bottle

Although PET bottles have a lid that can cover and many people use them to make water bottles for use many times, the PET bottle is originally designed to use once, so do not fill the drinks into them.

Plastic bottles do not withstand high temperatures and cannot disinfect with hot water.Even when you wash them with dishwashing liquid, any dirt can multiply bacteria.Although throwing off the disposable plastic bottle after use is a pity, it is better to recycle and not reuse.

2. Put the disposable plastic bottle in the refrigerator to freeze

PET bottled drinks can not be frozen because the liquid will expand in the volume after frozen, which can cause the bottle to break.

However, if the plastic bottle you use has a "frozen" label, this can be done completely.The thickness of this bottle is thicker than the normal PET bottle, so the liquid will not break the bottle when expanding.Therefore, when you want to freeze plastic bottles, it is best to choose the right plastic bottle.

3. Put a liquid not a drink in a plastic bottle

Although plastic bottles are closed and easy to carry, some people give laundry detergent, salad oil and cooking oils, fish sauce, soy sauce ... to store or take away.

In subconscious people think that plastic bottles contain drinks.If it contains something that cannot be taken, it is easy to drink.Even if you know, it is impossible to make sure others will not drink.Therefore, to avoid danger, it will be safer if not other things other than drinks in plastic bottles.
