The specialized paper for air fryers is usually silicone oil paper, which has characteristics such as oil resistance, anti sticking, and high temperature resistance. Most silicone oil papers on the market adopt a three-layer structure: base paper, solvent layer, and silicone oil layer. The base paper does not come into direct contact with food, and the silicone oil layer is food grade silicone oil, which can withstand high temperatures up to 250 degrees Celsius and is relatively safe. But the potential risks mainly come from the solvent layer, which contains polyethylene and modified polyolefins. If the production process is not standardized, harmful substances such as xylene may be released at high temperatures. Therefore, choosing products produced by legitimate manufacturers is particularly important.
When choosing silicone oil paper, the first thing to avoid is purchasing three no products. The packaging must have information such as brand, manufacturer, place of production, hygiene license, etc., and comply with national standards for food contact paper, such as "GB 4806.8-2016" and the latest "GB 4806.8-2022". Ensure that the packaging bears the QS food safety certification mark, as well as testing reports for xylene, fluorescent agents, and high temperature resistance, which can guarantee the quality and safety of the selected silicone oil paper.
