Aluminum oxide is not a protective coating that is applied at the factory, it is the natural reaction when pure aluminum is exposed to oxygen in the air.
Maybe you should look up "aluminum oxide coatings", and see for yourself what they are. You might get a surprise, instead of just assuming the manufacturer provided information was wrong.
@@northernsnow6982It is indead a coating, but you dont need to 'aluminium oxide coating' on aluminium itself (it is used on other materials), because it creates the coating on itself due to a natural reaction with oxygen.
@@northernsnow6982 It can also be wrong interpertation. There is an layer of oluminum oxide, but its just a natural proces. Same as they didnt mention in the video why one side is shiny and the other side isnt. That they rol 2 layers between the rollers so it can be thinner, and that thats the reason why one side is shiny and the kther not.
Yeah, there's such a lot of nonsense that they have woven into the fabric of this short 'documentary'. It is filled to the brim with stuff like 'after this fabrication step the rolls of aluminum are placed in high quality boxes'.. As if such things are a required step before the next phase, namely rolling it to a(n even) smaller diameter.. From a certain point oneards they mistake and mix up all kinds of phases of production, they mistake alu that is produced in ingots and sent off to factories that make different things of it with steps involved in making of actual aluminium FOIL, and besides not following much of a logical order, they show footage of completely different things than what they talk about and make it sound as if the characteristics of alu are the result of aspects to production that only have to do with logistics and management of the production line. Al that as they use the word quality every twenty seconds for no reason
Aluminum products weren't generally available to the mass market until the late 1940s and early 1950s. The reason for this is that aluminum is quite expensive to process and cost effective means were still in development prior to that. Simple smelting, as with copper and iron, doesn't work well. The reason you have to use the electrolysis process is because aluminum oxide is a very strongly bonded and aluminum oxidizes so readily that it is used as a de-oxidizer in steel production and things like welding electrodes. Yet when you consider what we've been able to do with it, in my opinion, it really is a miracle metal!
Just for future reference, EVERY Factora video includes numerous errors at the beginning so they can get more engagements from people like me who love to point out that stuff. In this case, in the first few seconds, he mispronounces Toblerone and adds another T in it. Ironic that I have to point this out by giving him another engagement.
Who remembers collecting foil during WWII? I remember going house to house on Saturday to get the foil and make a ball that would go to the "war effort!" Ah, the good old days.
You answered all my questions except what part of the process makes it so one side of the sheet is shinier than the other. I understand why it’s done, but like, is one side of the sheet polished more than the other?
Within the last number of years manufacturing of foil has changed. If you notice that if you use it to cover food that has been cooked-the surface facing the food looks like it is burnt. This has not been always the case. There is a definite change in the way foil is manufactured and I know from someone who does a lot of cooking and baking.

@@Factora_eng How on earth could it have been left out of this video? No mention whatever of two sheet rolled together and then separated. I thought this was supposed to be how it's made. Pretty stupid to leave this out!! Thumbs down
Because the production is so energy-intensive and I already use so much of it when eating takeaway and buying convenience food, I hardly use it at all in my private kitchen. I bought a roll 12 years ago and it still lasts. 😂
I use aliminium folie to hold my potato/cucumber chopper knife my tuna tea spoon and my olives spoon, well the olives are in pot with citroen acid I think and after 1 week the aluminium foil gets a hole in it under the normal spooon for olives, is aluminium allergic to the spoon, citroen acid on the spoon or the olives is a good question for me. because I eat only olives with the spoon that gets a hole underneath it, well the olives is probably in citroen acid to be able to keep it longer.
Sounds to me that its more work, time & money to finally have a roll of it than a typical gold coin... Who's the crazy person who thought to 'create' the process to make aluminum. You don't just decide to do that to a random piece of rock & hope you'll get really flat metal that you'll then crumple up and throw away...

Both spellings are accepted and used in scientific writings but actually neither is technically correct. Humphrey Davy originally named it ‘alumium’. So now you’ve got 3 choices to argue about at the pub!
@@rayray8687 It's weird, they say Titanium, Uranium, Palladium, Cadmium etc. but with aluminium it goes to Aluminum. Must have been too complex for the immigrants when they simplified the English words. Colour to color, neighbour to nighbor, centre to center. There is a whole list. Who changed English spelling to American? That man is Noah Webster, the iconic dictionary editor whose name is now synonymous with dictionaries in the United States. In the late 1700s, Webster took issue with some of the inconsistencies of British spelling and the troubles they posed for American students learning the language.
@@Langevloei-NL: I agree, it should have been left ‘alumium’ in keeping with tradition since it’s name was derived from the oxide, alum, but I guess Humphrey needed to keep his name in the papers during lulls when he wasn’t discovering anything, lol. Anyway, it’s well known that 50% of Americans can’t pronounce anything derived from French or Spanish, but in fairness English is the most nonsensical and convoluted language on the planet. My favourite has always been ‘Featherstonhaugh’ which I believe is pronounced ‘Fanshaw’.

How in heck did the narration get "Toblertone" out of "Toblerone"?
Thought the same darn thing 😂

Mindboggling the complexity yet most ttake tons of products we use everyday - for granted. Man we got it made
The introduction is very detailed🎉
So educative
A lot to learn
Ikr (i know right)
How warm is it at this stage? (1:10)
Watching the chocolate videos linked me to watch the aluminum foil video too😂😂😂
😅 welcome
The creator link the video to this one. Thats why it came up, not the algorithm
i have learnt so much about the life of foil thanks so much

Glad you like them!

Two sheets are rolled together to make the rolling easier therfore the outer surface is shiny but the touching faces are dull.

Can you please explain the shinny and dull finishes on each side . Cheers.
Good idea, for next videos 👍👍
😮 too thin to roll a single sheet
I want to think that the dull side is from the drive roller ( looks like the black roller in the video ) just a little grip to pull the foil .?
That's the oxide layer. The other side is lubricated, so stays shiny

Thank you so much sir.
What controls are on cross contamination and food hygiene?
Super cool ty video
Thanks
That reminds me: bring a roll next time I go shopping!

Thanks for sharing!
IF IT WEREN'T FOR THIS AMAZING PRODUCT, BAKING AND ROASTING WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE!!
Imagine how loud would it be😂
But how are all these machines made? 😮
That's always been a wonder for me. What machines make the machines that make the machines that make the machines?
never heard of tobler-tone lol
This is what i find myself watching at 3am
Same 😅
Bless your lil o heart
Toblerone, not Toblertone
👍
The rolling mil bearings is used for the aluminum foil production. CHG bearing is a very good rolling mill bearings manufacturer.
The chocolate video brought me here😊

Amazing I Like it
thanks!
Is it safe to cook on.
Supposedly
ToblerTone chocolate?
Great, my aluminium foil has been stood upon with dirty boots and we don’t even wash it before using🫠
an ELECTRICRONIC bath??? sure thing...
Who's here to find out why it's dull on one side and shiny on the other?
Tawbler-tone chocolate? Silly me. I thought it was Toblerone (toe-blur-own)
Could be sent _farther_ not further...
toblertone?
Yes
@@Factora_eng its toblerone, says it right on the label
yes @@Knotaro_bot

No, Toblerone.
😂 where is chocolate
If that's the foil how big is the turkey 😅
Sorry I ain't got no spell checks I just had no idea so much went into this stuff.
Crazy 🤯
Knarly!
It's called aluminium, not aluminum. Internationally accepted world wide. OK?
It is ALUMI-NUM. Like illuminate. Not Alu-minium.
Not international, only for Brits.
"Tobblertone?"
It's called Aluminium 😉
Only to Brits.
Im here bc I watched a video about purple gold... Uhh anybody else??
