We know that plasticizers are found in various fields in daily life, such as medical and health, food packaging, paint and other industrial products, and even a certain amount of DEHP exists in environmental drinking water. Plasticizers are everywhere in the plastic solvents we come into contact with such as disposable paper cups, tableware, daily necessities, toys, etc. Following the exposure of the liquor plasticizer incident, products from other industries were pointed out to contain excessive plasticizer content in process production and packaging. It is reported that condiments packaged in plastic will contain a certain amount of plasticizers, and DBP and other substances have been detected in packaged instant noodles. In particular, the plasticizer content in the condiments package is one to two hundred times higher than the national standard.
Plasticizers have invaded our lives overwhelmingly, but the national regulatory standards for plasticizers are incredible. The Ministry of National Security’s standard for the content of plasticizers in videos is 1.5 mg/kg, while the content of spices used to make condiments can be 60 mg/kg! The trouble that such inconsistent standards bring to the public is self-evident.
