Nowadays, some indoor plants have become the preference of many working people, but there are some things we don’t know about the selection of materials for plant breeding.

For example, the choice of flower pots, resin flower pots is more used flower pots, but many consumers have different reactions after use, so resin flower pots are toxic?

 

Are the resin flower pots? Will melt in the sun? How is the quality of resin flower pots compared to clay flower pots? What is the difference between a plastic planter and a resin flower pot? Now for everyone to answer.

 


1. resin flower pots durable?
Generally speaking, resin flower pots will deteriorate under the sun’s exposure, will age, if consumers want to buy, early I still recommend the purchase of terra cotta flower pots is better, for the breathable aspects of the plant or better.


2. Resin flower pots are toxic?
Resin pots are pots made of resin.

Resin usually refers to heat softening or melting range, softening under the action of external forces has a tendency to flow, at room temperature is a solid, semi-solid, sometimes can also be a liquid organic polymer.

 

Broadly speaking, any polymer compound that can be used as raw material for processing plastic products is called resin. Resin is the main raw material for manufacturing plastics and is also used to make paints (the main film-forming substance of paints, such as alkyd resin, acrylic resin, synthetic fatty acid resin.

The origin of this type of resin is mostly in the Pearl River Delta, Guangdong Province, China, which is also a relatively prosperous area for the coating industry, such as Changxing Chemical, New Pace Resin, San Ying Resin, DSM Xianda Resin, etc., adhesives, insulation materials, etc.

 

Synthetic resins are widely used in industrial production for the separation and purification of impurities in liquids, including macroporous adsorption resins, ion exchange resins, and some special resins.

Polypropylene is used to produce flower pots, not polyvinyl chloride. Polyvinyl chloride is toxic, while polyethylene is non-toxic. Therefore, resin flower pots are non-toxic.


3. What is the difference between plastic flower pots and resin flower pots?
In essence, there is no difference, plastic planters made of polypropylene. The resin also requires the addition of polymers (polymers are polymers made by addition polymerization reactions). The polymer is formed. 

 

However, it should be noted that polypropylene, not PVC, is used in the production of planters. Polyvinyl chloride is toxic, while polyethylene is non-toxic. Plastic flower pots are designed to prevent water pollution in pots.

 

So it is impossible to be made of polyvinyl chloride (of course, the exception of illegal manufacturers), now the pursuit of environmental protection, how will use polyvinyl chloride? The difference between the word, nature is very different.

 

Above, I introduced the plastic flower pots and resin flower pots what are different. As well as popularizing the toxicity of resin planters, and durability, the material of resin planters is polyethylene.

Many people will mix him with polyvinyl chloride, in fact, polyvinyl chloride is toxic, but polyethylene is non-toxic.

 

So resin planters are non-toxic, consumers can rest assured that use, but in terms of performance, I still recommend the use of terra cotta planters better because for the growth of plants permeability is better.
