1、 What are the categories of glassware

Glassware is a vessel made of glass, which is widely used due to its stable properties and wide range of uses. There are many types of glassware, which vary according to different classification methods:

1. Classified by purpose

It can be divided into daily glassware and chemical glassware. Daily glassware includes glass wine utensils, glass water glasses, glass tableware, glass cookware, etc; Chemical glassware refers to glassware used in chemical industry experiments, such as beakers, storage bottles, etc.

2. Divided by component

It can be divided into sodium calcium glassware, crystal glassware, microcrystalline glassware, heat-resistant glassware, colored glassware, etc. Glassware with different compositions have different characteristics.

3. Divided by molding method

It can be divided into blow molding, compression molding, centrifugal molding, free molding, etc.

2、 What are the benefits of using glassware

Glassware has many characteristics, such as being harmless, odorless, transparent, beautiful, with good barrier properties, non breathable, rich and common raw materials, low price, heat resistance, pressure resistance, and cleaning resistance. These characteristics make it a widely used container. The benefits of using glassware include:

1. Glass materials have good barrier properties, which can prevent oxygen and other gases from invading the substances inside the container, and prevent the volatile components of the substances inside the container from volatilizing into the air.

2. Glassware can be reused multiple times, which can reduce packaging costs, and the glass used in glassware itself has a lower cost.

3. Glass is easy to change in color and transparency, and can achieve various purposes.

4. Glassware is safe and hygienic, with good corrosion and acid resistance, suitable for packaging acidic substances (such as vegetables, juices, beverages, etc.) and storing chemical experimental materials.

5. Glassware has stable properties, which can be sterilized at high temperatures and stored at low temperatures. It is very suitable for storing beer, milk, fruit juice, carbonated drinks, etc.
