Method for selecting liquid silicone pacifiers

With the continuous development and progress of society, and the development of silicone rubber technology, liquid silicone pacifiers are increasingly recognized by the market. The liquid silicone material used in liquid silicone nipples is platinum sulfurized LSR liquid silicone, which is non-toxic and meets the US food grade standards FDA and EU food grade standards LFGB. Babies can use it with confidence. Today we will talk about how to choose and use liquid silicone nipples.

Firstly, the selection method for liquid silicone pacifiers is summarized by the editor as follows: first look, second smell, and third touch.

Firstly, look at the transparency of the liquid silicone nipple. Generally speaking, the more transparent the liquid silicone nipple is, the better the liquid silicone raw material used. A pacifier should not appear white or yellow. Such pacifiers may not be made of liquid silicone, but of solid silicone. The overall quality of solid silicone pacifiers is not as good as that of liquid silicone pacifiers. In addition, it is also important to observe whether the mold line of the liquid silicone nipple is obvious. The more obvious the mold line, the more uncomfortable the baby will feel when sucking. At the same time, it is evident that the molding process of the liquid silicone nipple is not high, and the quality of the nipple is not good.

Secondly, carefully smell the liquid silicone nipple to see if it has a noticeable odor. Do not choose one with a strong odor.

The third is to touch and forcefully tear the liquid silicone nipple with your hand to see if it is easy to break. Do not choose those that are prone to breakage.

Wash the liquid silicone nipple before use, and then disinfect it with high temperature. If conditions permit, it can be baked in an oven at 180 degrees for 4 hours to evaporate small molecule compounds. This step is generally done by silicone rubber manufacturers, but some manufacturers do not. So for safety reasons, a good solution is to do it yourself. If baking, pay attention to the temperature of the oven and do not bake over 230 degrees, otherwise it will affect the service life of the liquid silicone nipple.
