Is EVA resin harmful to human body?
The characteristics of EVA resin with good flexibility, rubber like elasticity, at -50 degrees still can have good flexibility, transparency and good surface gloss, good chemical stability, anti aging and ozone resistance, good strength, non-toxic. With the filler of good mixing, coloring and molding processing good.
Ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, referred to as EVA, in general vinyl acetate (VA) content in 5% ~ 40%. Compared with polyethylene, EVA[1] in molecular chain was introduced in vinyl acetate monomer, thereby reducing the high crystallinity, improved flexibility, impact resistance, filler compatibility and heat sealing performance, is widely used in foaming shoes material, functional films, packaging film, hot melt adhesive, wire and cable and toys etc. field.
No, please rest assured. EVA resin, in itself, is non-toxic, even food grade, and can be eaten. (there is one way to test the quality of EVA, which is to take it and chew it in the mouth)
