Although stainless steel has many advantages, not all types of stainless steel can be used to make tableware. Stainless steel is also divided into many different types, each with its own functions. Especially for stainless steel used to make tableware, there are strict requirements and regulations. After being made into tableware, stainless steel will come into direct contact with food. If it does not meet the standards, it is very likely to harm our health. Therefore, China has strict regulations on food and stainless steel that come into direct contact with food. At present, only stainless steel that meets the national mandatory standard GB4806.9-2016 "National Food Safety Standard for Metal Materials and Products in Contact with Food" can be called food grade stainless steel on the market. In this standard, the migration limits of arsenic, cadmium, lead, chromium, and nickel, five heavy metals in stainless steel products, are restricted under specific measurement methods. The 304 stainless steel that we are familiar with, even if it is a food grade stainless steel, can be used to make ordinary prescription loose parts. In addition, there is also 316 stainless steel. 316 stainless steel has a higher nickel content than 304, so its corrosion resistance is better. In addition, other elements are added during the production process. Therefore, this 316 stainless steel is mainly used in the food industry or surgical equipment. When purchasing stainless steel tableware or other kitchen utensils, we must carefully check whether they are labeled as 304 or 316. Do not purchase other types of stainless steel, especially inferior stainless steel, which may contain some heavy metal elements and pose a great threat to our health.
