What are the differences between cola in plastic bottles, cans, and glass bottles? The introduction of glass bottle manufacturers is as follows:

Glass bottle has good airtightness and sufficient carbon dioxide.

The earliest produced cola was bottled in glass, with the main component of glass being silicon dioxide, which has very stable chemical properties and hardly reacts with the containing substances. And the airtightness of the glass bottle is very good, and the carbon dioxide filled in it is not easy to escape.

So, when you drink a glass bottle of cola, especially when you gulp down an ice cold cola, the rich carbon dioxide gas that runs through your mouth is unparalleled in other drinks, and this is the refreshing experience that can only be achieved with sufficient gas.

The coating of the can affects the taste.

Currently, cola in cans and plastic bottles are more common than those in glass bottles.

The material used to make cans is mostly aluminum metal, which is a relatively active metal with unstable chemical properties. To prevent it from reacting with the ingredients in cola, a special coating (epoxy resin) will be placed on the inner wall of the can. Its properties are very stable, which can separate metal from cola and prevent oxygen from entering the can, affecting the beverage ingredients.

Insufficient airtightness of plastic bottles and easy loss of carbon dioxide.

As for the plastic bottles that are often despised, their main component is polyethylene terephthalate, which is the well-known PET.

The drawbacks and advantages of plastic bottles are very prominent. On the one hand, they are lightweight and not easily damaged. On the other hand, their airtightness is not as good as that of cans and glass products. Especially when the temperature is high or direct sunlight is present, the loss of carbon dioxide in the bottle will significantly increase.

At present, the use of plastic bottles is becoming increasingly widespread. Taking Coca Cola Company as an example, the selection of PET materials for the outer packaging of its products accounts for almost 45%. No wonder supermarkets often use plastic bottles for cola packaging.
