Teflon constitutes repeating chains of Carbon Florine. Teflon is chemically inert, has high melting temperature of 372 degree celcius & has low coefficient of Friction. It is the most slippery substance known today. Due to Its slippery & chemically inert nature it is used as Non Stick coating on Kitchen utensils.
What else can I help you with?
When using nonstick pots or pans should metal utensils be used?
Hi there when using nonstick pans metal utensils shouldn't be used if the pan has only a layer of teflon non stick as this can be easily scratched away and damaged.

What is the differences between Teflon and aluminum?
Teflon is a nonstick coating often applied to cookware, while aluminum is a metal commonly used in cookware construction for its heat conductivity. Teflon provides a nonstick surface, while aluminum helps in even heat distribution.

What is used in nonstick cookware?
The original nonstick cookware was seasoned cast iron cookware. This has a layer of cooked on vegetable oils called the "seasoning" that prevents sticking of food. However these are very high maintenance and if not handled properly will rust, destroying the "seasoning".The first easy to use and thus popular nonstick cookware was coated with DuPont's Teflon plastic. However this scratched, eventually flaked off, and at high temperatures degraded to produce toxic gasses.To solve the problems with Teflon (which was soon banned in cookware) manufacturers tried many things including: high temperature factory baked on vegetable oil coatings, alternative plastics that are more robust than Teflon, trade secret coatings, ceramics, etc.Currently the most successful coatings for nonstick cookware are ceramics.Nonstick is a coating of the substance "Teflon", it is easily scratched so one must use heatproof plastic or wooden utensils in the cookware coated with it.
