Problems solved by technology

Moreover, chemical raw materials such as styrene and bromine are toxic and harmful substances. If they are used as food packaging, toxic and harmful substances are easy to accumulate in the food, which will be harmful to human health.
Therefore, this flame-retardant expandable polystyrene particle can only be used as a raw material for industrial packaging or building materials, and cannot be used as a raw material for food packaging, and its scope of application is narrow.

Abstract

The invention discloses food-grade expandable polystyrene particles and a preparation method thereof. The food-grade expandable polystyrene particles are prepared from styrene, desalted water, calcium phosphate, pentane, an initiating agent and a surface lubricant by mixing and reacting. The food-grade expandable polystyrene particles can be used as industrial packing products and production raw materials of food packing products, and have a wide application range. The food-grade expandable polystyrene particles are suitable to be used as production raw materials of food containers such as coffee cups, drink cups, ice cream cups and instant noodle bowls.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a production raw material for a food container and a preparation method thereof. Specifically, it is the raw material and preparation method used to produce food containers such as coffee cups, beverage cups, ice cream cups, and instant noodle bowls. Background technique [0002] As we all know in the food processing industry, most of the containers used to hold food such as coffee, beverages, ice cream and instant noodles are paper products. Although paper products can be used to make food containers such as coffee, beverages, ice cream and instant noodles, the production process of paper products will generate a lot of sewage, which will pollute the environment and damage the forest environment, which is not conducive to ecological construction. Therefore, it is necessary to find other food packaging materials to replace traditional paper food packaging materials. [0003] The use of expandable polystyrene particles to make...
