What are the types of metal tableware

Tableware is an important household item in people’s daily life. Nowadays, there are many types of tableware, and metal tableware is one of them. Many people think that metal tableware refers to stainless steel tableware. In fact, the types of metal tableware are far more than stainless steel tableware. What are the common types?

1. Stainless steel tableware:

This kind of tableware has the characteristics of corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, but it will rust after it is stained by acidic substances or polished with hard objects such as sandpaper and fine sand. Baking it on the fire can prevent it from rusting and prolong its service life.

2. Aluminum tableware:

Lightweight, durable and inexpensive. However, excessive accumulation of aluminum in the human body will cause arteriosclerosis, osteoporosis and dementia in the elderly.

3. Copper tableware:

Adults have about 80 grams of copper in their bodies. Once they are lacking, they will suffer from arthritis and orthopedic diseases. The use of copper tableware can supplement the copper content of the human body. The disadvantage of copper tableware is that it will produce “patina” after rusting. Both verdigris and blue alum are toxic substances that make people sick, vomit and even lead to serious poisoning accidents, so tableware with patina cannot be used.

4. Enamel tableware:

Enamel products are generally non-toxic, but these tableware are made of iron and coated with enamel. The enamel contains lead compounds such as lead silicate, which can be harmful to the human body if not processed properly.

5. Iron tableware:

Iron participates in the synthesis of hemoglobin in the human body and is an indispensable trace element for the human body. Therefore, the use of iron tableware is good for health, but rusty iron tableware cannot be used, it will cause vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite and other digestive tracts disease.
