    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_contact_materials

    Food contact material pictogram (left) on a plastic food container in Hong Kong. Food contact materials or food contacting substances (FCS) [1] [2] are materials that are intended to be in contact with food. These can be things that are quite obvious like a glass or a can for soft drinks as well as machinery in a food factory or a coffee machine.

  3. SAE 904L stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_904L_stainless_steel

    904L is an austenitic stainless steel.It is softer than 316L, [1] [2] and its molybdenum addition gives it superior resistance to localized attack (pitting and crevice corrosion) by chlorides and greater resistance reducing acids; in particular, its copper addition gives it useful corrosion resistance to all concentrations of sulfuric acid.

  4. Seasoning (cookware) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasoning_(cookware)

    Stainless steel and aluminium cookware do not require protection from corrosion, but seasoning reduces sticking, and can help with browning as the seasoning coating has high thermal emissivity. [5] [6] Other cookware surfaces are generally not seasoned. A seasoned surface is hydrophobic and highly attractive to oils and fats used for cooking.

    Stainless steel. Stainless steel is an iron alloy containing a minimum of 11.5% chromium. Blends containing 18% chromium with either 8% nickel, called 18/8, or with 10% nickel, called 18/10, are commonly used for kitchen cookware. Stainless steel's virtues are resistance to corrosion, non-reactivity with either alkaline or acidic foods, and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexane

    Hexane (/ ˈ h ɛ k s eɪ n /) or n-hexane is an organic compound, a straight-chain alkane with six carbon atoms and the molecular formula C 6 H 14. [ 7 ] Hexane is a colorless liquid, odorless when pure, and with a boiling point of approximately 69 °C (156 °F).

  7. Olive oil extraction - Wikipedia

    The water is expelled by the decanter coil together with the pomace, resulting in a wetter pomace that is much harder to process industrially. Many pomace oil extraction facilities refuse to work with these materials because the energy costs of drying the pomace for the hexane oil extraction often make the extraction process sub-economical.

  8. Surface chemistry of cooking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_chemistry_of_cooking

    The self-healing properties of stainless steel are such that when part of the protective oxide layer gets scratched off, more of the steel reacts, leaving the surface protected again. Stainless steel is considered stainless because it has at least 11% chromium by mass.

  9. Duplex stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplex_Stainless_Steel

    Duplex steels also have higher strength. For example, a Type 304 stainless steel has a 0.2% proof strength in the region of 280 MPa (41 ksi), a 22%Cr duplex stainless steel a minimum 0.2% proof strength of some 450 MPa (65 ksi) and a superduplex grade a minimum of 550 MPa (80 ksi). [6]
