Cooking enthusiasts and often in the kitchen busy housewives, without exposure to various types of glassware. But due to the lack of understanding of glass products, products and the market identification is not clear, a lot of housewives into use error. However, the glass material with different classification, slightly used improperly, may well hidden safety problems, such as sudden burst accident condition. Therefore, LOCK&LOCK experts remind consumers, buying a used glass products to brand and quality, do not buy.
Lack of understanding of consumers for glass products.
What kind of glass tableware into the microwave? How the consumer choice and use of glass tableware?
I visited the market found, many large supermarkets are selling a superb collection of beautiful things of glass tableware, many products are not clearly marked out, whether the material can be heated and points for attention in use and other necessary information. Ms Wu said consumers, she will buy a bit thick glass tableware and fresh-keeping container, " thick glass do not easily broken, some of the good quality. " When asked to buy glass tableware can enter the microwave or oven, she is not sure. " Should it, my bowl also into the microwave, interview the author understands, the majority of consumers with Ms. Wu, the glass tableware products is not clear. In fact, glass tableware supplies because of the different materials, applicable scope and matters needing attention are completely different. Consumer is when the choose and buy to see whether the material and use, to avoid accidents. At present, the market well-known brands of glass box, usually with a detailed manual, which indicate the product material, use of attention to matters, for example in the oven should be how to use, under what circumstances the use of danger. Some products are prominently marked products are heat-resistant glass or toughened glass. While some packaging products, also on the packaging label glass type and the use of guidance and other information.
The classification and characteristics of glass products.
A consumer reactions to their home LOCK&LOCK Glass, refrigerator, microwave oven, kitchen environment often use, with a good many years is still intact. While her friend bought other brands of glass have been replaced several times. It is understood, glass is good or bad, is the key material. On Market Kitchen glassware according to different materials, is divided into ordinary glass, tempered glass, heat-resistant glass three types. Ordinary glass has a " fragile" weakness. Glass was used in automotive glass, bathroom partition, telephone booths and other fields. But it also has its own inevitable weakness: when the surrounding environment temperature change suddenly, it may rupture. Therefore, the domestic and foreign media have many cases about tempered glass burst burst event reports.
Heat resistant glass applied to high temperature kitchen.
The author in the visited concerned expert learned, heat-resistant glass products is the most important point is to high temperature, safety is the primary issues. Compared with the tempered glass, heat-resistant glassware although impact resistance is weak, but it has superior heat resistance, and will not release harmful substances, the use of more security, peace of mind. While the glass due to heat, is not suitable in often requires heating kitchen environment. It is understood, heat-resistant glass linear thermal expansion coefficient of the lower can withstand rapid temperature change and more safe. General market in some so-called heat-resistant glass products, the coefficient of linear thermal expansion in 5 or even more. So, even if the purchase of heat-resistant glass products, but also to see the coefficient of linear thermal expansion.
Despite the heat-resistant glass production costs than the tempered glass more, technology requirements are also more stringent, but some of the well-known brand of the spirit of the masses of consumers safety concept, still insist on using heat-resistant glass production. And tempered glass is totally different, Glass series of vessels using heat-resistant glass containing high temperature resistant boric acid, even under the " Rainbow night " great temperature difference, also unscathed. Therefore in the process of using higher safety coefficient, heat resistance, transparency is also very good. LOCK&LOCK expert introduction, " we advocate of green philosophy of life, under the Glass series of fresh glass ware is adopted containing boron silicate composition of heat-resistant glass material, is safe and reliable, the coefficient of linear thermal expansion in 3.88 following, not only in accord with the regulations of the state in the " excellence in goods heat-resistant glass " coefficient of linear thermal expansion of 3.8 standard, and the glass industry standards of 4.2 linear thermal expansion coefficient of the standard is compared, is also quite low value.
"High-quality heat-resistant glass products best suited to keen on the microwave oven and oven cooking live housewives -- its high temperature resistant glass top can withstand 400 degrees Celsius temperature test, can put it in the oven or microwave oven cooking food. More let a person feel rest assured, even if it is just from the freezer is taken out of the Glass series of products, can also be directly into the microwave oven heating, no need to worry too much difference in temperature cause the glass to break. At the same time, LOCK&LOCK Glass series of product modeling fashion, beautiful crystal, can be directly end is placed on the table tableware using.
Heat resistant glass logo is still in the promotion.
A few days ago, China Daily Glass Association Deputy Secretary-General, senior engineer Zhao Wanbang expresses when accepting media to interview, the problem that exists at present is, consumers can not tell from the appearance of glass tableware specific materials, and on the market some products do exist marking ambiguous situations, in order to solve this problem, China daily glass association is carrying out heat glass certification mark. Association developed a strict examination system, authorized the production process control, strict quality clearance, service enterprises in the heat-resistant glass products add the certification mark. Then, the public can easily identify with the logo of heat-resistant glass products. In addition, Zhao Wanbang introduced, the relevant industry standards stipulated in commodity packaging catering toughened glassware signs, residents in the purchase may identify.
