Can silicone cups contain hot water?

Silicone has a wide range of applications in our lives. The silicone material is internationally recognized as a safe, non-toxic material, colorless and odorless, and is harmless to the environment.

Because after vulcanization, silicone has excellent high temperature resistance, low temperature, water repellency and physiological inertia,it is used widely.

  Silicone can be divided into general-purpose silicone, high temperature and low temperature silicone. Ordinary silica gel, which is solid silicone, has an instantaneous temperature resistance of 350℃, which means that the ordinary silicone can be taken out in a high-temperature oven for one second without any problem.

Moreover, the silicone cup has been tested to be safe to use between -40°C and 240°C, and the silicone cup will not undergo physical or chemical changes.

 The temperature resistance of the silicone cup is from -40℃ to 240℃, and its high temperature resistance is higher than the highest temperature of hot water.

Therefore, the silicone cup can be filled with hot water. Some people are also worried that if you use a silicone cup, will the silicone release toxic substances when exposed to hot water?

Of course not. The properties of silicone are very stable. Both chemical properties and physical and mechanical properties have little change with temperature. Therefore, you can use the silicone cup to drink hot water safely.
