What should you pay attention to when using ceramic tableware?

When using ceramic tableware, please pay attention to the following points:

1. When choosing ceramic tableware, it is essential to purchase from reputable markets and avoid purchasing inferior products from unofficial manufacturers just for the sake of cheapness. According to national regulations, when ceramic tableware is immersed in 4% acetic acid, the lead leaching amount should not exceed 7 mg/L, and the cadmium leaching amount should not exceed 0.5 mg/L. Products from reputable manufacturers generally meet these requirements;

2. Pay attention to the condition of the tableware, touch the surface of the tableware with your hand, and check whether the inner wall is smooth and clean;

3. Smell with your nose to check for any unusual odor;

4. Do not purchase ceramic tableware with overly bright colors. To achieve vibrant colors, manufacturers may add some heavy metal additives to the glaze. Therefore, the brighter the color of the tableware, the more likely it is that the heavy metal content will exceed the standard;

5. You should purchase tableware made of in-glaze or under-glaze porcelain, which are subject to strict raw material and process control.
