Is the coating on the iron pan toxic?

As the real economy in modern society is getting worse and worse, many friends are facing the crisis of unemployment, so this has led many friends to be more frugal in their diet. In addition to their busy work, they cook their own meals at home, which saves them a lot of living expenses by eating out. So is the iron pan coating toxic? In response to this question raised by everyone, let me share with you in the next period of time.

Teflon is a fluorinated substance that needs to be heated to above 450 degrees Celsius to decompose, but it is unlikely that a household pot can reach this temperature. The temperature at which oil smokes is generally around 150 degrees Celsius; if it reaches over 200 degrees Celsius, the food will be burnt. The coating can withstand temperatures above 260 degrees Celsius and begins to decompose only at 450 degrees. Both temperatures are far higher than those used in daily frying and deep-frying. Therefore, in the normal process of using non-stick pans for cooking, it will not be harmful to health.

Polytetrafluoroethene, abbreviated as PTFE in English, (commonly known as the "King of Plastics"), has a trademark named Teflon. In China, due to its pronunciation, the trademark "Teflon" is also called Teflon, Teflon, Teflon, Teflon, Teflon, etc., all of which are the transliterations of Teflon.

Products made of this material are generally referred to as "non-stick coatings"; they are a synthetic polymer material that uses fluorine to replace all the hydrogen atoms in polyethylene. This material is resistant to acids, alkalis and various organic solvents and is almost insoluble in all solvents. At the same time, polytetrafluoroethylene is resistant to high temperatures and has an extremely low coefficient of friction, so in addition to being a lubricant, it also becomes an ideal coating for non-stick pans and the lining of water pipes.

I believe that with the above sharing by all of us, our friends have a deeper understanding and cognition about whether iron pan coating is toxic. Of course, what I want to tell you is that first of all, we must understand the composition of the iron pan coating, so that when choosing an iron pan, we can choose those made of regular materials. This can also make the dishes we make with the iron pan healthier.
