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.
What else can I help you with?
Which elements make up teflon?
Teflon is made out of the elements carbon and fluorine.
What element used to make teflon?
Teflon is made using the element fluorine, together with carbon and sometimes other elements. The chemical name for Teflon is polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).
What elements is Teflon made of?
Teflon is made of the elements carbon and fluorine. It is a synthetic polymer material known for its non-stick properties and resistance to high temperatures.
What is the element used in teflon?
There are two elements in Teflon. They are Carbon and Fluorine. Teflon is a polymer, very similar to polythene. In polythene there are hydrogen atoms, but in teflon these hydrogen atoms are replaced by fluorine. The formula for polythene(polyethylene) is -(-CH2-CH2-)- (n) For Telfon the formula is -(-CF2-CF2-)-(n)
Is Teflon a halogenated fluorocarbon?
Yes, Teflon is a type of halogenated fluorocarbon polymer. It is made up of carbon and fluorine atoms, with some versions containing small amounts of other elements like oxygen and hydrogen.

Do they make something like teflon that's tougher?
Alluminum teflon is tougher than most other teflon.
What elements make up elements of sugar?
Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen are the only elements that make up sugars.
What is chemical formula for Teflon?
The chemical formula for Teflon is C2F4, which represents the repeating unit of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), the polymer that makes up Teflon.
What materials make up the coating of a nonstick wok?
A "nonstick" wok is typically a stainless or aluminum wok coated with Teflon or a Teflon derivative such as "TFAL." They are not suitable for houses with pet birds. Even slight overheating of a Teflon coating produces fumes that kill birds.
If nothing ever sticks to Teflon how do they make Teflon stick to the pan?
First of all, plenty of stuff sticks to Teflon. I think it's sprayed on in molten form
What are the elements that make up a civilization?
the elements that make up a civilization is stop depending on the computer or phone and learn it
What elements make up alumimum chloride?
The elements aluminum and chlorine make up the compound aluminum chloride.
