Abstract

A gastronorm pan 1 having a basin 20 and edges 30 comprises a silicone layer 10 on the inner surfaces of the basin and the upper surfaces of the edges. The silicone layer is moulded to the shape of the gastronorm pan. The process for the manufacture of the gastronorm pan may comprise adhering the silicone layer to the gastronorm dish by heating to between 150 and 300 degrees Celsius. Furthermore, the silicone layer may be produced by forming a solution that is milled with a vulcanization agent and a curing agent at room temperature to form sheets that are then moulded to the gastronorm dish. The silicone layer may be between 1-3mm and the dish may be made from steel. The silicone layer may comprise a colour pigment.

Title - A Gastronorm Pan
Summary:
The current invention relates to gastronorm pans particularly a stainless steel gastronorm pan including the visible portions thereof encased in a silicone layer, as well as a process to encase the visible portions of the stainless steel in a silicone layer.
Introduction:
Stainless steel pans are used worldwide within a number of applications for catering use. They are standardized sizes which fit into service display counters, commercial ovens, clearing trolleys & Chafing dishes of all types. As such they contain precooked foods where consumers can then help themselves in a buffet style.
Stainless steel is widely accepted as the material of choice - however other materials are available such as Polycarbonate, melamine or ceramic.
All of these have their own features, attributes & benefits, though none of them completely fulfil some customer requirements.
However these gastronorm(GN) pans are limited in several important ways including the following features:
1) Aesthetic - they can not be produced in colours other than steel
2) They can not be used directly from the oven or freezer to the serving counter
3) They do not have Non-stick qualities
Attempts at producing silicone GN pans exist in the market -but these have taken other forms. Usually by making a wire frame internally to support the silicone which is not rigid.
This wire frame in some cases can distort the shape of the pans & also is not cost effective - making the pans too expensive for mass use.
The current invention provides a GN pan that overcomes the disadvantages of the available GN pans.
Statements of Invention
According to the current invention there is provided a gastronorm pan comprising an external silicone layer on upper surfaces of the gastronorm basin and edges wherein the silicone layer is moulded to the shape of the gastronorm dish and adhered to the gastronorm dish by heating to between 150 and 200 deg Celcius.
Preferably the silicone layer is produced by forming a solution that comprises in w/w a silicone gum at 60% to 80%, silicone dioxide at 10 to 40% , a silicone additive at 1 to 6% and a release agent at 0.01 to 0.5%; this solution is milled with a vulcanisation agent at at 1.0 to 1.5% w/w and a curing agent at room temperature to form sheets that are then moulded into the shape of the upper surface of a gastronorm dish including the upper surface of the basin, edges and handles; the silicone mould is then applied onto a gastronorm dish and heated to between 150 deg celcius and 250 deg Celcius.
Preferably the silicone layer is between 1 to 3mm.
Preferably the gastronorm dish is composed of steel or other durable material.
More preferably the silicone layer includes a colour pigment.
Description
The invention will now be described by way of example only, with reference to the figure and table.
The figures are briefly described below:
Figure 1 shows a top down view of a stainless steel gastronorm dish (1) with a silicone layer (10), whereas the external surface of the basin (20) is not covered by the silicone layer.
Figure 2 is a magnified cross section through a gastronorm dish (1) showing the silicone layer (10) on the inner surface of the basin (30) and upper surface of the edge (30) but not on the external surface of the basin (20).
Example 1
A silicone solution according to Table 1 is milled with a vulcanizing agent 2,5Dimethyl-2,5-di(tert-butylperoxy)hexane (DBPMH) at 1.0 to 1.5% and a curing agent at room temperature, then the silicone material is cut into sheets, placed inside tooling for moulding(@180C-200C for 60 seconds~3 minutes), removed from the mould, trimmed and then the moulded material is placed on the gastronorm dish for 4 hours @200C, and then allowed to cool.
TABLE 1
Common Name Chemical Name Content CAS. No-
Gum m ethyl- vinyl- silicone 60 80% 68083-18-1,
Silica silicon dioxide 10'40% 7631-86-9,·
Additive hydroxy-terminated silicone fluid 1~6% 70131-67-8,
Release Agent stearic acid 0~l% 57-11-4·
Hence the gastronorm dish of the current invention can fit into current chafer, bain marie or buffet support without any alterations required.
