Teflon is commonly in households used as a non-stick coating on cookware. It is considered the most slippery material in existence. It is insoluble in almost everything. It doesn't char or melt in extreme heat. Teflon doesn't rot, swell, mildew, mold or degrade in sunlight. Because of the versatile properties of Teflon, it has uses in almost every industry including communications, aerospace, and architecture.
