In earlier years (1900) pans were made from copper, if you were wealthy enough, while for poorer folk their pans were made of cast iron or tin plate. Then along came steel pans covered with porcelain, a hard and smooth surface which was easy to clean. Later came aluminium pans and stainless steel ones. The latest development is for pans which have good conductive materials on their bases. Also the bases are carefully ground flat so that they can be used on gas rings, or electrically powered rings or surfaces which have the rings set into a hard porcelain surface.
