Even though teflon is thermoplastic, why is it used in cookware? Does it melt and stick to food?

Answers

Answered by AmalSheriff07

Answer:

Even though teflon is a thermoplastic it is used in cookware, because its melt viscosity is so high that it will only melt and soften under extreme temperatures. A vessel made out of teflon never reaches its melting point on a stove top, and that's the reason why teflon is used in cookware.
