How to clean and disinfect the newly opened water cup?

Buy a favorite water cup. After opening it, how will you clean and disinfect the water cup?

Our company has been producing water cups and selling water cups for many years. During these years of operation, we have encountered many similar ways to clean and disinfect water cups. Because many people have used it for many years, but this method is wrong.


Do you separate the lid from the body after opening a new water cup and clean them separately? This step is right here, what will you do next?


Many consumers do this

After they clean the lid and body of the cup in cold water, they will be boiled at high temperature, especially in a pot on the stove. I heard that this kind of advice from experts is the most thorough and healthy. Did you do the same?


Such an approach is wrong and is not recommended. First of all, cup lids are mostly made of plastic materials. The temperature resistance test of these plastic materials is usually around 70℃, and the water cup in the pot usually exceeds 96℃ after boiling. In this case, if the lid is boiled for about 1 hour , Then the lid will be deformed. Even if it is not visible after cooling, the tightness of the lid has actually been destroyed, especially the aging of the silicone sealing ring has been accelerated.

If the purchased cup is made of plastic as a whole, the final situation will be the same as the plastic lid. If the body of the cup is stainless steel, the single-layer stainless steel cup will destroy the electrolytic layer on the surface of the cup through boiling, but it will not cause other damage to the cup, and it will not be deformed. If the cup body is double-layer stainless steel and has been vacuum-treated, it is definitely not advisable to boil it in high temperature for a long time. Once an accident occurs, it will be very terrible.


If the double-layer stainless steel water cup is fixed in a high-temperature water boiling pot, the damage to the water cup will become very small. If it is not fixed, the water will naturally push the edge of the water cup when it is boiling, and allow the outer wall of the water cup to touch the pot wall for a long time. The water temperature in the pot will not exceed 100°C, but the temperature of the pot wall will be after a long time after grilling. The highest temperature can reach close to 300 ℃, this temperature has exceeded the temperature that the vacuum water cup can withstand, and there is a risk of explosion if the time is too long. Therefore, the method of high-temperature water boiling disinfection and cleaning is not advisable.


To use a new cup, just use warm water with a water temperature of about 50°C, wash it with a neutral, harmless detergent and rinse it off with cold water.
