Chemicals contained in plastic that is very dangerous for human health. One of the most dangerous chemical is bisphenol A (BPA). These materials can stimulate cancer cell growth or increase the risk of pregnancy miscarriage!
The risk of health problems brought plastic material is affecting the health of children, because their organs are still very weak. Moreover, their immune systems are still not perfect. In fact, since birth, the baby’s body sometimes has given the plastic chemical, both from the use of pacifiers or bottles using other food containers. Exposure to the chemical content of plastic materials into this body to look out for.
Viewed from nature, divided into thermoplastic plastics and thermosets. Thermoplastics have the property, when heated will be plastic and if it continues heated to temperatures over 200 º C to melt. When the temperature then lowered (cooling), the plastic material will harden and can be formed again.
