2. Diamond-like carbon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond-like_carbon

   As implied by the name, diamond-like carbon (DLC), the value of such coatings accrues from their ability to provide some of the properties of diamond to surfaces of almost any material. The primary desirable qualities are hardness, wear resistance, and slickness (DLC film friction coefficient against polished steel ranges from 0.05 to 0.20 [10]).

   The other effect that the seasoning oil has is to make the surface of a cast-iron pan hydrophobic. This makes the pan non-stick during cooking, since the food will combine with the oil and not the pan. It also makes the pan easier to clean, but eventually the polymerized oil layer which seasons it comes off and it needs to be re-seasoned. [1]

4. Seasoning (cookware) - Wikipedia

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

   Seasoning is the process of coating the surface of cookware with fat which is heated in order to produce a corrosion resistant layer of polymerized fat. [1] [2] It is required for raw cast-iron cookware [3] and carbon steel, which otherwise rust rapidly in use, but is also used for many other types of cookware. An advantage of seasoning is that ...

5. Non-stick surface - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-stick_surface

   Cast iron, carbon steel, [1] stainless steel [2] and cast aluminium cookware [citation needed] may be seasoned before cooking by applying a fat to the surface and heating it to polymerize it. This produces a dry, hard, smooth, hydrophobic coating, which is non-stick when food is cooked with a small amount of cooking oil or fat.

6. Cookware and bakeware - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cookware_and_bakeware

   Like cast iron, carbon steel must be seasoned before use, usually by rubbing a fat or oil on the cooking surface and heating the cookware on the stovetop or in the oven. With proper use and care, seasoning oils polymerize on carbon steel to form a low-tack surface, well-suited to browning, Maillard reactions and easy release of fried foods ...
