Foilikalvo

Foilikalvo, often referred to as aluminum foil or tin foil, is a thin sheet of aluminum used for wrapping food and for other purposes. It is manufactured by passing aluminum alloy through rolling mills. The process involves multiple passes of rolling, with annealing in between, to achieve the desired thickness and properties.

Foilikalvo is widely used in cooking, baking, and food preservation due to its ability to act as a barrier against light, oxygen, and moisture. This helps to keep food fresh for longer periods and prevents spoilage. In cooking, it can be used to wrap food for grilling, baking, or roasting, helping to retain moisture and flavor. It is also used to create steam packets for cooking vegetables or fish.

Beyond its culinary applications, foilikalvo has various industrial and household uses. It can be used for insulation, as a component in capacitors, and for decorative purposes. Its reflective surface makes it useful in lighting and photography. It is also commonly found in the packaging of various products to protect them from external factors. Foilikalvo is generally considered safe for food contact, although concerns have been raised about its potential migration into food, especially when exposed to high temperatures or acidic foods. Recycling of foilikalvo is encouraged to reduce environmental impact.
