With the continuous development of society, our living standards are also constantly improving, and our lives are becoming more and more refined, so people usually buy some cheap household items, but these seemingly easy household appliances are actually very harmful.
Take a look at these 5 "dangerous" household items that you have in your home?
Presumably, water cups are things that everyone often uses, there are glasses, thermos cups and plastic cups printed with various patterns on the market, but we don't know that the materials of these cups have certain standards, if they are unqualified cups, long-term use will cause some effects on the human body.
The once smash hit Internet celebrity potbelly cup is almost a must-have water cup, but as everyone knows, there are some water cups on the market that are made of PC material, and many parents don't understand the harm of these materials, but in fact, PC material cannot directly contact boiling water.
Otherwise, once this material is exposed to high temperatures, it will produce a chemical called bisphenol A, and long-term drinking of this water may also lead to endocrine disorders in the human body.
Therefore, this kind of PC material cup can only be used to receive cold water or warm boiled water, although there are many such cups on the market, and the appearance is also very good-looking, but it is also necessary to pay attention to safety, after all, practicality is the key.
So what should we pay attention to when buying this plastic cup?
When buying a plastic cup, we should go to the bottom of the cup to see what material the cup is made of, if the top is a PC, you can't buy it, but if the bottom of the cup has a label like the number "05", "7" or "pp", this cup can be selected.
Including the plastic lunch boxes and plastic spoons we use when ordering takeout in our daily life, try not to eat them if they are made of PC, and it is best to throw away the takeaway spoons and choose your own household spoons.
Because this kind of spoon is extremely easy to release some harmful toxins to the human body after encountering high temperatures, if anyone who has used it knows that this kind of spoon is constantly stirred in the high temperature, and finally this spoon will become bent.
This is because some plasticizers are generally added to the plastic products for takeaways, so they are easy to deform or even melt away when encountering high temperatures.
In addition to plastic products, the material of some thermos cups in our home is likely to be unqualified, because many people only care about the appearance of the product when they buy things, but often ignore the practicality and material of the product.
Generally speaking, materials such as stainless steel that come into direct contact with food often have to reach 304 or even 316 to be qualified, because these two materials not only have excellent corrosion and heat resistance, but also can resist daily wear and tear.
But there are often some unscrupulous merchants who want to take shortcuts and make greater profits from them, so they generally use 201 material when making this stainless steel product.
However, as everyone knows, this material has very poor corrosion resistance, if you brew some tea or coffee at high temperature, it will produce many heavy metal substances, and if the human body drinks it for a long time, it is likely to cause heavy metal poisoning.
Not only that, stainless steel made of 201 material can generally only be used for some materials that will not come into direct contact with food, such as furniture and tools, etc., which are the best places for 201 material.
In order to meet people's needs for heating in winter, some businesses have also made three-piece heating sets, electric blankets, hand warmers and electrode hot water bottles.
Not only that, but a small and beautiful electrode hot water bottle like this one is not only easy to carry, but also has a good warmth effect, so as long as your hand does not take off it, you will not feel cold. Therefore, it is also sought after by many office workers.
However, the danger factor of this electrode hot water bottle is very high, and everyone knows that when the electrode hot water bottle is plugged in, it will always make a gurgling sound, which feels like boiling water, and it is accompanied by more and more expansion.
That's because the contents of this electrode hot water bottle are liquid, and the heated thermostat is also soaked in water, which may lead to leakage and electric shock.
In the process of heating, there will be more and more steam in the hot water bottle, which will cause the hot water bottle to expand more and more, so if there is leakage or thermostat failure at this time, the consequences are unimaginable.
But some people think that they will not be so unlucky, but there are many cases of electrode hot water bottle explosions.
Therefore, whether it is a hot water bottle style heated by electrodes or heating wires, do not use it for a long time to avoid the danger of burning the skin, and also put an end to the situation of using it while charging.
There are even some people who like to put the heated hot water bottle in the quilt at night to warm their hands, which is also very dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will get burns or accidents.
The same is true for electric blankets, but one of the biggest taboos of electric blankets is that they must not be folded up for use, because the inside of the electric blanket is covered with wires, and if it is folded for a long time, it will cause leakage.
And be sure to unplug the electric blanket before going to bed, remember not to sleep all the time, which can easily cause carbonization of the cotton cloth and lead to fire.
Some people here will definitely say that since these electric heating methods can't be used, then I will always use the traditional way of heating bags.
Of course, this method can be used, but it also needs whether the warm water bag has the phenomenon of rubber aging, if it is not used for a long time, suddenly pour in the freshly boiled boiling water, and the result is easy to cause the hot water bag to burst and burn.
Therefore, we must be cautious and cautious about these "three-piece heating sets", and we must not be careless.
The socket bar is an indispensable electrical appliance for everyone, but some of the socket strips we commonly use are also "three no" products! It is precisely because of our great demand for socket strips that the quality of sockets on the market is becoming more and more uneven.
Therefore, this kind of "convenient and easy-to-use" three-hole universal plug row stands out, but in fact, its power is not small. Because it causes a lot of fires and accidents.
Because of this, the mainland enforced the new national standard in 2010 and banned the universal socket.
Due to the wide jacks of these sockets, the fuses and metal connections inside are not enlarged according to a certain size, and under the continuous current transmission, these sockets are very prone to leakage and lead to fire.
Therefore, there is a later five-hole socket, that is, the separation of two holes and three holes, despite this, some bad businesses will still reduce production costs to make inferior sockets, and those sockets that shout 9.9 free shipping in the live broadcast room are actually "three no" products.
Even the plastic shell of this socket has no insulation effect at all, and the lighter is just a little bit away, so it is conceivable that if a short circuit really occurs, this fire may also be inevitable.
As our living conditions get better and better, some household items are becoming more and more exquisite, whether it is in the two-dollar store or in the supermarket, you can see cheap and beautiful ceramic products, which can not help but make people want to buy a few to take home.
As everyone knows, although the patterns of this kind of ceramics look good, most of them are glazed colors, and it is okay to use them to decorate, but there may be certain risks in using them to hold food.
Because this glaze color contains a certain amount of lead, lead is harmful to the human body, in addition, some ceramic patterns are printed, if you install some high-temperature things, inferior ceramics will release formaldehyde toxins, which is extremely harmful to the human body.
From this point of view, pure white and clean ceramics are the best choice.
As the saying goes, "cheap is not good", no matter what you buy, in addition to the price, we also have to look at the quality. Therefore, when shopping for goods, you can't just be greedy for cheap.
