What material are the water cups used by athletes?

Recently, a fan left a message to the editor, saying that the Winter Olympics will start soon. In previous years' Olympic Games, many athletes will use their own water cups, but due to different sports, the water cups used by these athletes are also different. Some athletes' water cups are very special, but some sports are discarded like disposable mineral water bottles after use. Can you tell me what kind of water cups athletes usually use?


In order to write this article, the editor carefully watched some video comparisons of the Olympic Games at different times, and indeed saw a lot of athletes drinking water from their own water glasses between competitions. However, the editor did not see the footage of the athletes throwing away the water cup. If it is convenient, please tell this friend which competition and which day the competition was held. Since I didn't see the editor, I can't talk about it.


The editor will talk about the water cups used by athletes that I have seen. The editor saw that a Chinese table tennis player used a stainless steel thermos cup with a bouncing cover. The logo on the water glass under the lens is very obvious, and the editor will not advertise this brand.


Saw British rowers using plastic water cups. According to the lens editor used by the other party, this water cup should be PETE. The material is relatively soft, which is convenient for athletes to squeeze out the water with their hands. This material can only hold cold water and room temperature water, because it will release harmful substances when heated, so it is not recommended to install high temperature hot water.


I saw that tennis players also use plastic water cups, which have a relatively large capacity and are accustomed to the structure. Judging from the texture and hardness of the water cup, it should be tritan. Why it is tritan is mainly because of the safety of the material.


Editor found that the water cups seen in other sports are basically stainless steel and plastic, and the use structure is basically these two types. Since the editors are watching the Summer Olympics, the winter Olympics editor thinks that because of the season, the water cups that athletes bring should be made of metal. The water cups should still be mainly stainless steel water cups. Since I do not know whether the titanium water cups are approved by the Olympic Games and can be used in the stadium, the editor does not confirm whether the athletes use titanium water cups.
