Why are dishes often made of porcelain and a collection of high-quality porcelain dishes?

Nowadays, as you can see, most dishes are made of porcelain. So why are dishes often made of porcelain? Let’s find out with Bat Trang Porcelain through this article.

Why are dishes often made of porcelain?

The reason pots and pans are usually made of metal and dishes are made of porcelain is because of their thermal conductivity. These two materials have different thermal conductivity. The thermal conductivity of metal is quite good and pots and pans are often cooking utensils that come into direct contact with fire. If you use insulation, pots and pans often cannot cook food.

In contrast, dishware products use containers for cooked food. You can hold it directly with your hand. Porcelain is a poor heat conductor, so when held by hand, there is no need to worry about burns. Furthermore, porcelain is a good insulator. That way your food will always be hot.

The next reason is about the melting temperature of the metal. Pots and pans are often in direct contact with fire and high temperatures to cook, so not all metal products can be used to make pots and pans.

Plus, metal and ceramic are easy to clean and sanitize. Porcelain dishes always have a layer of enamel. This enamel layer is quite slippery and does not adhere to grease. So you can easily clean it.

Another equally important reason is the health factor for users. Although there are many types of materials that have the ability to insulate heat such as: Styrofoam, insulating cotton,… or good thermal conductivity such as lead, magnesium,… but for health reasons they are never used to produce pots and pans. or dishes.

What other materials are used to produce dishes besides ceramics?

• Glass: With an average production cost and many designs, glass is trusted by many housewives. Presenting the dish on a glass plate is also very beautiful and elegant.
• Wood: A bowl or plate made of wood will be very eye-catching with its striking wood grain. However, you need to choose good wood for health safety when used as well as long life.
• Barley: I actually just came into contact with dishes made from barley not long ago. A very new product on the market. It is advertised as absolutely safe. But as far as I know, the information “absolutely safe” is not accurate. I will analyze it in detail in the next article.

There are many other types of materials to make dishes such as coconut wood, iron, plastic… Depending on each person’s aesthetic preferences, you can choose. However, you need to carefully read the product information to avoid damaging your health when used.

Because these tools come into direct contact with your food. If they are not safe, you may be poisoned or harm your body or affect the taste of the food. Therefore, grandmothers need to pay attention to protect their family’s health.
