With the arrival of summer, ice grids have become a must-have item in every household. Among the many ice lattice materials, silicone ice lattice is loved by consumers for its excellent performance and lovely shape. However, the problem of whether silicone ice boxes can be boiled has been troubling many consumers. This article will conduct an in-depth analysis of this problem, and take you to understand the performance and use of silicone ice grids.

First, the material and performance of silicone ice lattice

1. Material introduction

Silica gel ice box is mainly made of silica gel. Silica gel is a kind of silicate material with high porosity and high surface area, and has good adsorption properties. It usually exists in a spherical or granular form with a transparent or translucent surface.

2. Performance characteristics

(1) High temperature resistance: silicone ice lattice has excellent high temperature resistance, can be used in high temperature environment for a long time, not easy to deformation.

(2) Good cold resistance: silicone ice cells also perform well in low temperature environments, and will not become brittle or crack because of low temperatures.

(3) Strong chemical stability: silica gel ice lattice has strong chemical stability and is not easy to react with other substances, so it can be used to store various foods.

(4) Environmental protection and non-toxic: silicone ice box is made of food-grade silicone material, which meets food safety standards and is harmless to the human body.

2. Boiling experiment and result analysis of silica gel ice tray

1. Experimental process

In order to verify whether the silicone ice tray can be boiled, we carried out the following experiment: put the silicone ice tray into boiling water, boil it for 10 minutes, and then observe the change of the ice tray.

2. Experimental results

The experimental results show that although the silicone ice lattice will become soft during boiling, there is no obvious deformation or rupture phenomenon. However, after the end of the experiment, the compressive performance of the silicone ice lattice is reduced, and it is easy to break.

Third, the use of silica gel ice box taboo and suggestions

1. Avoid long-term high temperature cooking: Although the silicone ice box has a certain high temperature resistance, long-term high temperature cooking may still lead to a decline in its performance and affect its service life.

2. Do not put it into the microwave oven for heating: microwave oven heating is easy to cause deformation of silicone ice lattice, affecting its service life.

3. Do not use sharp objects to scratch: the surface of the silicone ice grid is more fragile, easy to be scratched by sharp objects, affecting the beauty and service life.

4. When cleaning, pay attention to the way: the silicone ice box can be washed with water, but avoid using detergent and other chemical ingredients, so as not to affect its chemical stability.

Summary: As a new type of ice lattice material, silicone ice lattice is loved by consumers with its excellent performance and lovely shape. However, in the process of use, consumers need to understand the performance and use of silicone ice bars, to avoid long-term high temperature cooking, microwave oven heating and other improper operations to ensure the service life of silicone ice bars and food safety. I hope this article can help you better understand the silicone ice lattice, scientific and reasonable use of this product.
