PTFE coatings on nonstick cookware start to break down, releasing toxic chemicals into the air. Inhalation of these fumes may result in polymer fume fever, commonly known as the PTFE flu. Symptoms include temporary flu-like discomfort such as chills...
1. PTFE Fiberglass Flexible fiberglass sheets can be coated with PTFE to improve their durability and weather resistance. In most applications in which flexible fiberglass is used outdoors, this material is coated with PTFE. This coating makes fiberglass suitable for the permanent, tent-like roofs...
By coating PTFE resin on the ultra-fine glass fiber fabric, the PTFE membrane material is light in weight, high in strength, fire and flame retardant, self-cleaning, not affected by ultraviolet rays, fatigue resistance, distortion resistance, aging resistance, long service life, and high Features...
Electroless Nickel-PTFE (phosphorous PolyTetraFluoroEthylene) platingcoats metal surfaces via an autocatalytic chemical reaction to achieve a repeatable coating of uniform thickness. This process makes it possible to coat parts with sharp edges, deep recesses, seams, threads, and complex geometries. ...
(and other waterproof, breathable jackets) is also PFC-free. While PFC-free DWR coatings are effective, it is generally accepted that they are not quite as robust as the more toxic DWR treatments featuring PFCs. Thus, jackets featuring a PFC-free DWR coating will require more regular ...
Making the bomb required scientists to handle large amounts of the caustic and toxic substance uranium hexafluoride. Du Pont provided PTFE-coated gaskets and liners that resisted the extreme corrosive action of uranium hexafluoride. Du Pont also used PTFE during the war for making nose cones of ...

One of the ingredients used to make waxed floss is the same chemical group as the coating on many brands of non-stick pans. Granted, you aren’t likely to swallow floss or ingest large amounts of Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). But PTFE and PFOA (a related chemical) have been linked to...
“nontoxic” in the context of cookware, says Paul Honigfort, Ph.D., director of theFDA’s Division of Food Contact Substances in the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition. Rather than calling certain materials “toxic,” the FDA considers materials’ toxicity based on how they’re ...
