    Can PLA cups withstand cold temperatures without getting brittle or deforming?

    Update:05 Jul 2023
    PLA cups generally have good resistance to cold temperatures and can withstand them without becoming brittle or deforming. PLA has a relatively low glass transition temperature compared to other plastics, meaning it retains its shape and mechanical properties at lower temperatures. However, it's important to note that the exact performance of PLA cups can vary depending on the specific formulation and manufacturing process.

    In typical refrigeration temperatures (around 4°C to 10°C or 39°F to 50°F), PLA cups should remain stable and maintain their structural integrity. They should not become brittle or easily break under these conditions. However, extreme cold temperatures, such as those found in commercial freezers or when exposed to very low temperatures for an extended period, can affect the performance of PLA cups. In such cases, they may become more prone to cracking or deformation.
