What are the main ingredients of fake wine?

The main components of fake wine are industrial alcohol and methanol.

Fake wine is usually blended with cheap industrial alcohol, which is produced by ethylene hydration or butane oxidation of petroleum products. In addition to alcohol, it also contains a lot of methanol, which is toxic. People who drink less than 5 ml of methanol will have different degrees of blurred vision. Drinking about 10 ml of methanol will lead to blindness, and too much will lead to death.

In the production of industrial alcohol, a large amount of methanol is easily produced due to side reactions, and some methanol content is even as high as 70%, so liquor blended with industrial alcohol is easy to drink to death due to methanol poisoning.

Identification method

1, Identification of Liquor

The outer packaging box of fake wine is old, and the bottle body has obvious wear marks. At the same time, the brand definition of fake liquor is poor, the color is not correct, and there is no anti-counterfeiting mark; Looking at sealing, there are many sealing procedures for real wine, including anti-counterfeiting balls and plastic lids, while the sealing of fake wine is relatively simple and not standardized enough; Look at the bottle cap, the bottle cap of real wine is printed with bar code, production date, batch number and anti-counterfeiting mark, but fake wine can't reach it due to equipment restrictions.

2. Identification of beer

Most counterfeiters recycle bottled brand-name beer, put it into low-grade wine, re-label it with a new trademark and sell it as brand-name beer. This kind of wine mainly depends on the trademark when it is identified. The labeling requirements of real wine are very strict. The trademark position of all wine bottles is exactly the same, while fake wine is not so standardized, and sometimes the trademark position is not accurate at all.

3. Identification of fruit wine

The fake wine in fruit wine is mostly red wine. Fake red wine is injected with a needle, and no flaw can be seen through the bottle. When identifying, it is mainly to look at the color of the wine. Real red wine is soft and not dazzling, and fake wine with pigment is gorgeous. In addition, the bottom of fake wine bottles generally presents precipitation.
