Which is healthier, pe or pvc? Which is better?

Nowadays, many people buy food in plastic boxes. Some plastic boxes can even be heated in a microwave oven. However, some plastic materials are not suitable for holding food. Everyone should learn to identify themselves when buying boxes. Pe and pvc are two common plastic materials, so which one is healthier? Which is better, pe or pvc plastic?

The quality of pe and pvc depends on their uses. If used in food packaging, pe will be better and healthier. Pe, also known as polyethylene, is a thermoplastic resin polymerized from ethylene. Pe is odorless and nontoxic, feels like wax, has good low temperature resistance and impact resistance, and can be used in injection molding, blow molding, extrusion and other methods, and is widely used in fibers, films, daily necessities and hollow products.

Pvc is polyvinyl chloride. Additives such as stabilizers, lubricants, auxiliary processing AIDS, pigments, impact agents, etc. will be added in the processing process, which will easily cause food pollution. Therefore, pvc is not recommended for food packaging.

After reading the above explanation, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of the plastic material of food packaging. When we buy plastic boxes in the future, we should look at the ingredients before deciding whether to buy them. Similarly, don't just put food in plastic boxes to avoid harm to your body.
