Raw Materials: Melamine dinnerware is made by heating and pressing melamine resin powder in a mold. Melamine powder is produced with melamine formaldehyde resin as the raw material, cellulose as the base material, and added pigments and other auxiliaries.
Production Process: The melamine resin powder is put into a mold and subjected to hot pressing under certain temperature and pressure to form tableware of various shapes, such as plates, bowls, cups, etc.
Features
Durability: Melamine dinnerware has high hardness, is highly resistant to falling, bumping, and is not easy to break. Even with frequent use and accidental drops, it can remain intact, making it suitable for various occasions such as families, restaurants, and hotels.
Easy to Clean: The surface is smooth and not easy to get dirty. It can be easily cleaned of oil and stains by simply wiping with hot water and detergent or putting it in the dishwasher. After cleaning, the tableware remains clean and as good as new.
Aesthetics: It can present a variety of colors, patterns, and styles through adding different pigments and adopting different production processes, such as imitating ceramic or wood effects. It is elegant and can meet the aesthetic needs and decorative requirements of different consumers.
Heat Insulation: It has good heat insulation performance. When holding hot food or drinks, the outer wall of the tableware will not be hot, making it convenient for people to hold and use.
Safety: Regular melamine dinnerware uses raw materials that meet food hygiene standards, which are non-toxic, odorless, and harmless to human health. However, inferior melamine dinnerware may release harmful substances such as melamine and formaldehyde when exposed to high temperatures or acidic and oily foods.
Usage Precautions
Avoid High Temperatures: Although melamine dinnerware has certain heat resistance, it cannot be directly heated in a microwave oven, nor should it hold food with excessively high temperatures for a long time. It is generally recommended to use it within a temperature range of -20°C to 120°C to prevent the tableware from deforming or releasing harmful substances.
Avoid Contact with Strong Acids and Alkalis: Try to avoid prolonged contact of melamine dinnerware with corrosive substances such as strong acids and alkalis, so as not to damage the surface of the tableware or cause the release of harmful substances.
Proper Cleaning: When cleaning melamine dinnerware, use a soft sponge or cloth, and avoid using hard cleaning tools to prevent scratching the surface of the tableware, which may affect its appearance and service life.
