RM@Schools – Recycling Metallic Packaging

Recycling Metallic Packaging

The present toolkit will introduce students to the metallic packaging issues suggesting four easy
experiments that show:

a physical method to select two different metals used in the food packaging (Aluminum
and steel);
a chemical method to select the same metals;
the reduction potential series, the concept of corrosion, anodic protection and passivation;
the electrochemical deposition of metals (galvanoplastics), in particular Tin (one of the first components of food disposable metallic packaging).
