English Core advantages
1. The material is safe and environmentally friendly: It is made of food-grade or medical-grade silicone, which is non-toxic, tasteless and odourless. It does not contain bisphenol A (BPA), phthalate and other harmful substances. It meets FDA, EU 10/2011 and other international safety standards. Infants, pregnant women and sensitive people can use it safely.
2. Excellent temperature resistance: It can withstand the extreme temperature of -40℃~230℃. It can not only be used for cold drinks, but also suitable for hot water, hot soup and other high-temperature scenes. It will not release harmful substances when it is cold and hot, and the stability is far superior to that of plastic straws.
3. Outstanding physical properties: the texture is soft and elastic, not easy to break and deform, and can still be restored to its original state after repeated bending; the pipe wall is smooth, not easy to adhere to stains, convenient to clean (can be cleaned by dishwasher or sterilised at high temperature).
4. Comfortable use experience: soft to the touch, no stiffness when touching the mouth, and strong flexibility. It can be bent and adjust the angle at will according to the usage scenarios (such as water cups, baby bottles, thermos cups), which is highly adaptable.
Product features
1. Functional design
◦ Multi-specification adaptation: Models of different lengths (10cm~30cm) and inner diameters (3mm~10mm) are provided, which can be matched with various containers such as baby bottles, straw cups, sports kettles, etc.
◦ Special functions: such as leak-proof straws with valves (to avoid inverted leakage), straws with brushes (built-in cleaning brush for easy cleaning), foldable straws (portable storage, suitable for going out).
2. Scene customisation
◦ Daily consumption scenarios: colourful and cartoon pattern models are suitable for children's straw cups, transparent and simple models are suitable for adult water cups, and degradable silicone models meet environmental protection needs.
◦ Medical scene: Medical conveying silicone straws (such as nasal feeding tubes) are equipped with X-ray development lines and scale markings. Some of them adopt a multi-cavity structure, which can realise conveying, flushing and other functions at the same time, and have good biocompatibility, reducing the stimulation of human mucous membranes.
3. Sustainability: It can be reused hundreds of times to replace disposable plastic straws and reduce white pollution, which is in line with the current green consumption trend; it can be naturally degraded after disposal, which is environmentally friendly.
FAQ:
The following common problems and answers may be encountered during the use of conveying silicone straw products:
• Odour: High-quality food-grade silicone straws are generally odourless. If there is a slight odour in the new pipe, it may be production residue. It can be removed after rinsing with water, ventilation and drying.
• Tube wall bubble: impure raw materials, impurities or mixed with air, immature production process, and exposure to ultra-high-temperature objects, gases or contact with chemicals during use can all cause tube wall bubbles. When it is serious, it will cause the pipe wall to break. It is necessary to choose qualified products and avoid using them in harsh environments.
• Blockage: If the water contains more impurities or sediments, long-term use may cause blockage inside the tube. At this time, you can remove the pipe and rinse it with water or gently dredge it with fine wire and other tools.
• Ageing, hardening or cracking: The service life of silicone straws depends on the frequency of use, environment and maintenance. It can be used for several years under normal use and good maintenance. If there is ageing, hardening, cracking and other phenomena, it should be replaced in time.
• Chemical compatibility problem: Some chemicals may react adversely with the silicone straw material, causing the tube to expand, deform or corrode. When choosing a straw, it is necessary to understand the chemical properties of the conveying medium, choose a silicone material with good chemical stability, and conduct a chemical compatibility test or consult a supplier if necessary.
• Connection sealing problem: the size of the straw does not match the connecter, improper installation or wear of the seal, etc., may lead to leakage. Make sure that the size of the straw and the connecter are suitable, follow the correct method when installing, check the condition of the seal regularly, and replace it in time if there is any damage.
