Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical building block that is used primarily to make polycarbonate plastic and epoxy resins. Polycarbonate plastic is a lightweight, high-performance plastic that possesses a unique balance of toughness, optical clarity, high heat resistance, and excellent electrical resistance. Because of these attributes, polycarbonate is used in a wide variety of common products including digital media (e.g., CDs, DVDs), electrical and electronic equipment, automobiles, sports safety equipment, reusable food and drink containers. For many years, polycarbonate plastic has been the material of choice for baby bottles and many reusable water bottles as well as many other products. Bisphenol is the subject of much debate as to it’s safety in food containers particularly baby bottles.
