non stick cookwares is coated with teflon.why
Answers
Answer:
Now reasons why Teflon is used for Non Stick material: It is highly inert, meaning that it doesn't react with other substances easily. It has a high melting point and shows exceptional electrical properties, which makes it an excellent choice to be used for the wiring of computer and aerospace applications.
Reason of coating is inert nature of teflon.
Non stick cookwares are coated with teflon due to non reactive and frictionless surface.
The surface is easy to clean.
Teflon is both hydrophobic and lipophobic, thus neither oil nor water sticks, but forms bead shape on contact.
Teflon is common name for polytetrafluoroethylene or PTFE.
The high melting point of teflon also makes it suitable to be used as cookware, where high temperature is involved in the process.
