Recently, one of "the domestic market, sales of soybean milk, fruit juice machines are used in industrial lubricants" broke the news in the market, raised a storm, although the small appliance industry's leading enterprises and the United States have issued statements Joyoung denied broke the news content, saying that exposure to food-related products and components are food grade materials related to national security requirements, yet to be fully market and consumer confidence, consumers purchase these products on the sidelines, the relevant market company's DU bushing share price fell, small household appliances market why trust so fragile?
Thai Yuan Huang said in an interview, in the soybean milk, fruit juice machine and other small household electrical appliances running the process,Mould guide plate oil may be directly or indirectly through seepage and evaporation in contact with food, industrial lubricants containing carcinogenic substances, to ensure that the human body without harm, food-grade lubricants must be used, "the domestic use of industrial lubricant products has become the industry's plasic bushing unspoken rules," he said, in addition, there are many SMEs reluctant to use food grade lubricants have in order to achieve "non-toxic" requirements, even with lard,plain bearing peanut oil to lubricate the food machinery.
Huang Tai Yuan that the resulting soybean milk product "differentiated" root cause, is not specifically for food-grade lubricants certification bodies, although the "food machinery dedicated white oil", "Safety of machinery lubricants accidental contact with the health requirements of the product." other national standards for food processing machinery has been provided with food-grade lubricants, brass bushing but not units monitor food companies are using toxic industrial lubricants, "the United States and Europe are very strict food safety requirements."
Reporters learned that food-grade lubricants are divided into "H1" or "H2" categories. H1 class will come into contact with food, oil, equipment and components for lubrication or rust film. H2 class will not come into contact with food, oil, and food these parts although not in direct contact, but because of mechanical in operation and working process, the oil leak has occurred or may evaporate into the air, and therefore must use food-grade lubricants.
