The answer is fluorine
- Teflon is very resistant to other chemicals - Teflon is a good electrical insulator - Teflon is thermo-resistant - Teflon has a very low coefficient of friction - Teflon is a non-stick material used for coatings - Teflon is a thermoplastic material
Teflon is made out of the elements carbon and fluorine.
PTFAnswer Teflon is a trademark of DuPont and is commonly used for the chemical compound PTF or polytetrafluoroethylene.
Teflon, a DuPont trademarked product, is a fluoropolymer, and there are three flavors of it now. Let's look at them. One is polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon-PTFE), which is the stuff cookware is coated with. It's carbon and fluorine. Another is perfluoroalkoxy (Teflon-PFA), and it's used to make tubing and other products. It is largely like PTFE, but has a bit of oxygen in its chemistry. The third is fluorinated ethylene propylene (Teflon-FEP), and its about the same as Teflon PFA, which is to say it's mostly carbon and fluorine with a bit of oxygen. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on Teflon, and you can link to the other articles from there and look at the chemical structure of a given example of one of the fluoropolymers.
The answer is fluorine
Plastics used to make labware are: polyethylene, polypropylene, teflon, polycarbonate.
CFCs were the compressed gas that was used as "spring" to push the can contents out of the container. CFCs have been replaced with HCFCs as a consequence of the Montreal Protocol.
is teflon used in heart valves
Alluminum teflon is tougher than most other teflon.

CFC's are used now also. they are used as coolants.
Teflon is used on nearly all modern pan sets as it offers the best not stick surface available. Before Teflon was widely available they used PTFE but tests now prove that PTFE can cause health problems.
