Abstract
A method of imparting a non-stick coating to a surface of an aluminum foil sheet, and the resulting foil sheet. The method involves coating at least part (preferably at least 40%) of an area of a surface of a metal sheet article (preferably an aluminum foil sheet) with a substantially solvent-free silicone oil at an average coating application rate in a range of 1.5 to 10 mg/ft2 of the coated surface area. The coated sheet article is then preferably coiled. The coated sheet article is then heated in the presence of air or oxygen at a temperature of 250° C. or higher for a period of time of at least 10 minutes. The treated surface is both non-stick and food-friendly.
