What else can I help you with?
How can humans be affected by teflon poisoning and what are the potential health risks associated with exposure to teflon?
Humans can be affected by teflon poisoning through exposure to fumes released when teflon-coated cookware is overheated. Potential health risks include flu-like symptoms, lung damage, and a condition called polymer fume fever. Long-term exposure may also increase the risk of certain cancers.
Can you use a teflon coated pan to ignite a dessert and burn off rum?
Yes, but you shouldn't. Overheating teflon releases poison chemicals, and therefore if you use them at all it shouldn't be something hot like this. Try iron or steel pans for igniting a dessert and burning off rum.
Why teflon tip bullets?
Some bullets are coated with Teflon to protect the barrel from excessive wear and fouling. Other coatings for bullets include molybdenum disulfide, wax, and other proprietary films. Some bullets have a plastic tip or plugs and are generically called "poly-tips" and people sometimes mistake this for Teflon. The plugs initiate rapid expansion by acting like a piston which gets driven into a hollow cavity in the bullet. Such poly tipped bullets are commonly used for hunting small or thin skinned animals. One popular type of poly tipped bullet is the Nosler Ballistic Tip.
Do they make something like teflon that's tougher?
Alluminum teflon is tougher than most other teflon.
What elements make up Teflon?
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 surface will glue not stick to?
Glue may not stick well to surfaces that are high in oil or grease content, such as silicone, wax-coated or Teflon surfaces. Additionally, glue may also have difficulty adhering to surfaces that are extremely smooth or non-porous, like glass or certain types of plastics.
What was life like without teflon?
Sticky
Is enameled cast iron non-stick?
Enameled cast iron is not inherently non-stick like traditional non-stick cookware. The enamel coating provides a smooth surface that can help with food release, but it is not as non-stick as Teflon-coated pans.
What surface doesn't cause a lot of friction?
A very smooth surface or a smooth surface coated with a liquid, oil or a Teflon like substance.
What sort of surface should a slide have so that you could go down it really fast?
A smooth and polished surface will allow you to go down a slide really fast. Surfaces like plastic, metal, or polished wood provide less friction and allow for a smoother ride. Sanding the surface regularly can help maintain its smoothness.
What is a cast coated paper?
Cast Coated paper is like a shinny mirror light flash. like a mirror feeling
