Glass itself is made of natural materials, and during the production process, harmful substances evaporate, resulting in high safety. Moreover, glass has high temperature resistance and good thermal conductivity. Ceramic materials have a wide range of applications, including acid resistance, alkali resistance, oil resistance, high temperature resistance, low temperature resistance, and high safety. The price of this electric kettle is generally around 300 yuan, which is a bit expensive, but it is safe and more importantly, it has a beautiful appearance.

202 stainless steel contains 3% -4% nickel, which partially meets the national standard for stainless steel food hygiene requirements.
201 stainless steel, high manganese and low nickel, easy to precipitate heavy metals when encountering carbonated beverages or acidic substances.
304 stainless steel, containing 8-10% nickel, meets the national requirements for stainless steel food hygiene. Usually, stainless steel and its brand are indicated on the packaging box.
3. Plastic electric kettle, cheap in price and low in safety.
Plastic electric kettles usually use polypropylene plastic. PP plastic is generally a new material with a uniform surface and no odor at the bottom of the pot. In order to reduce costs, some small workshops in the market use recycled plastic, which can release harmful substances if used for a long time.
Finally, it is important to remind everyone that stainless steel containers must be cleaned in a timely manner to avoid long-term storage of acidic and alkaline foods, otherwise they may easily produce toxic substances. When using and cleaning, it is best not to repeatedly scratch the inner wall. Use a soft cloth to wipe it to avoid damaging the protective layer and dissolving harmful substances.
