Desiccant packaging machine reminds you to pay attention to the safety hazards of desiccant

The common food desiccants on the market still have certain safety performance. We have professional desiccant packaging machines, which can prevent safety problems during the packaging process, especially children should stay away. Our packaging machine manufacturers warmly remind: let children Stay away from desiccants, pay attention to safety, we must put an end to all potential safety hazards! It is understood that most of the desiccants on the market currently use calcium oxide (quick lime), silica gel, ferric oxide and calcium chloride as the main raw materials. Among them, food desiccants with quicklime and silica gel as raw materials are the most common. Especially quicklime, because of its good hygroscopic effect, convenient source and cheap price, most of the desiccants are mainly quicklime, which has been widely used in food desiccants. In recent years, silica gel desiccant has gradually become popular as an alternative product of lime desiccant. Its main component is silicon dioxide, which is non-toxic, non-corrosive, stable in properties and has good hygroscopic ability. Food companies will first consider the safety of the desiccant, followed by the cost. In particular, the use of lime-based desiccants is irreversible, and once it absorbs moisture and becomes hard, it cannot continue to function, which is one of the reasons for its gradual elimination. In addition, according to the food and drug packaging regulations, the packaging of the desiccant must have anti-strength, and its main ingredients and harmful results should be marked on the outer packaging of the desiccant, and a safety notice should be given. Judging from the current market research, food companies generally label desiccant packaging with warning words such as 'do not eat' and 'keep away from children'. Accidental ingestion of alkaline desiccant is the most dangerous. In recent years, all kinds of children's food on the market are rich and colorful. In order to prevent moisture absorption and deterioration, food desiccant is used more and more widely. After the food is eaten, the performance of the desiccant is not familiar, and the accidental injury caused by misuse and accidental ingestion is increasing. According to experts, quicklime is calcium oxide, which is an alkaline substance. It will turn into mature lime when it encounters water. During this neutralization reaction process, a lot of heat will be released, causing gas expansion and water expansion, and will also produce a certain amount of heat. Pressure, when the pressure reaches a certain level, may trigger an 'explosive' reaction. Therefore, once the lime-based alkaline desiccant is accidentally stepped on by a child, ingested or accidentally entered into the eyes, it may cause damage to the skin, digestive tract or conjunctiva, especially the eyes. Children are the main 'prevention' group of food desiccants. In order to keep children away from desiccants with potential safety hazards, experts remind parents that when giving snacks to children, they must take out the desiccant inside and put them away from children. At the same time, parents should tell their children to stay away from desiccant, do not play with desiccant, and do not put desiccant into water to avoid injury. If it is a colorless and transparent ball, it is a silica gel desiccant. Silica gel cannot be absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and can be excreted through feces. Generally speaking, it is not toxic to the human body, and no special treatment is required after ingestion; if it gets into the eyes , rinse with water from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner of the eye. If a large amount of ferric oxide desiccant is taken, it may cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms, which can be treated symptomatically. If you accidentally ingest the lime desiccant containing calcium oxide, it is easy to cause esophagus burns or gastric ulcers. You should drink water or milk as soon as possible to dilute and induce vomiting to reduce the absorption of the body; but you should not drink too much water to avoid vomiting and burns the esophagus again. , adults are generally 120-240 ml, children are measured at 10 ml per kilogram of body weight, and the total amount does not exceed 200 ml; if the skin is accidentally contaminated with lime desiccant, it needs to be washed with plenty of water; once lime desiccant splashes into the eyes , it should be immediately rinsed with water for at least 15 minutes. Of course, food desiccants play an important role in preventing food from absorbing moisture and deteriorating and prolonging the shelf life of food. Although there are potential safety and health risks in unexpected situations, it is not a beast of a flood, and it is not allowed to 'abandon food due to choking'. In fact, no matter what the desiccant is, as long as it is not damaged or wet, it is safe. Moreover, as an alternative to lime-based desiccant, silica gel desiccant is being promoted, and lime-based desiccant will gradually be eliminated. Therefore, for adults, the key is to fulfill their educational supervision responsibilities, keep children away from it, and avoid misuse and accidental ingestion, so as to avoid the occurrence of tragedies.
