Hello,
.
Polytetrafluoroethylene which is known as teflon, it's a chemical coating.
.
The main purpose of teflon is, it reduces the risk of catching fire. It's non reactive, non stick and water resistant.
.
You can see teflon in Pipeworks, on new cars, and even on pans so that they reduce the risk of fire.
.
They are used so, new things do not get damaged or catch fire and can be easy to wash or maintain

Greetings aspirant!

You want to know about teflon. Teflon is a material found in many house cookware. Basically in Non-stick pots, pans and bakeware.

It's chemical name is chemical Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). it is very non-reactive, due to the strength of the carbon-flourine bonds. It is also hydrophobic meaning that it cannot be wet by water. This is the reason the food don't stick to it.

Hope you find it helpful.
Thankyou!
