Is the thermos flask is in use if it's silvering is removed?

If only the silvering is gone, it can still be used, but it won't be as good. However, quite often the silvering is inside the vacuum compartment; if the silvering has vanished because the glass cracked, it is very probably unsafe to use. A thermal flask works by preventing heat conduction (the vacuum layer will not conduct heat) and by preventing heat radiation (the silver layer reflects the heat back at the contents). Without the silver layer, the heat will not be reflected. The flask will still work, but will lose or gain heat faster that it would if the silvering was intact. Note: The "silvering" on older flasks may be mercury. If the envelope is cracked and the mercury evaporates, it could prove toxic. Newer flasks use aluminum.

It is because the silvering for the mirror is separating from the glass. Apparently this is a fairly common problem for heated mirrors. You need to replace the glass or whole housing.
