What is the best type of ice cube tray?

Whether it is summer or winter, many people like to add ice cubes to various drinks, so there are many types of ice cube trays on the market, so that people can make ice cubes at home to enrich their drinks.

Among the many ice cube trays, there are two types of ice cube/ball trays that are popular, namely plastic ice trays and silicone ice cube trays. Can these two materials replace each other? In terms of material alone, the material of silicone ice cube trays is rarely not environmentally friendly. Everyone knows that plastic is not environmentally friendly. Nowadays, many products are made of silicone material. Silica gel is a highly active adsorption material, insoluble in water and any solvent, non-toxic, tasteless, stable in chemical properties, and does not react with any substance except strong alkali and hydrofluoric acid; while plastic is a kind of high molecular weight organic substance. The main component material, which assumes a solid shape when finished, is molded by injection molding during manufacture and processing. So what is the difference between silicone ice trays and plastic ice trays?

 Plastic ice trays have poor low temperature resistance, high thermal expansion rate, easy to burn, poor dimensional stability, and are easy to deform. 230 degrees Celsius, long life; the chemical properties of the silicone material are very stable, and the products produced have a longer life than other materials, soft and comfortable, thanks to the softness of the silicone material, it is extremely flexible and does not deform. Undoubtedly, in terms of product materials, silicone ice cube molds are obviously superior, and the silicone material is environmentally friendly and non-toxic, and can pass food-grade certification; currently, the plastic ice trays on the market are mainly square, lacking features and It is very troublesome to clean. Silicone ice trays are different! The silicone ice tray can make more graphics on the appearance, which is really beautiful and easy to use.

 Due to the soft texture of silica gel, it is very convenient to clean. It can be washed by hand or machine, and is welcomed by the majority of housewives.
