1. A big function of paper cups is to hold beverages, such as carbonated drinks, coffee, milk, cold drinks, etc. This is its early and basic use.
Beverage paper cups can be divided into cold cups and hot cups. Cold cups are used to hold cold beverages, such as carbonated beverages, iced coffee, etc.; hot cups are used to hold hot beverages, such as coffee, black tea, etc.
Distinguish between cold drink cups and hot drink paper cups, they "perform their own duties", once "misplaced", it will threaten the health of consumers. The surface of the cold drink paper cup should be sprayed or dipped in wax. Because cold drinks will make the surface of the paper cup water, which will cause the paper cup to soften, and it will be waterproof after being waxed. This wax is very stable and safe between 0 and 5°C. However, if it is used to hold hot drinks, as long as the temperature of the drink exceeds 62°C, the wax will melt and the paper cup will absorb water and deform. The molten paraffin has a high impurity content, especially the polycyclic fen hydrocarbons contained in it. It is a possible carcinogenic substance. Entering the human body with the beverage will endanger human health. The surface of the hot drink paper cup will be pasted with a special polyethylene film recognized by the state, which is not only good in heat resistance, but also non-toxic under high temperature beverages. Paper cups should be stored in a ventilated, cool, dry and pollution-free space, and the storage period should generally not exceed two years from the production date.
2. The use of paper cups in advertising Advertisers or manufacturers also use paper cups as an advertising medium.
The pattern designed on the cup body can give people a different drinking mood, and it is also a "symbol" to promote a certain product. Because the product's trademark, name, manufacturer, distributor, etc., can be designed on the surface of the paper cup. When people drink beverages, they can recognize and understand products from this information, and paper cups provide a platform for people to understand these new products.
