What is used in nonstick cookware?

The original nonstick cookware was seasoned cast iron cookware. This has a layer of cooked on vegetable oils called the "seasoning" that prevents sticking of food. However these are very high maintenance and if not handled properly will rust, destroying the "seasoning".The first easy to use and thus popular nonstick cookware was coated with DuPont's Teflon plastic. However this scratched, eventually flaked off, and at high temperatures degraded to produce toxic gasses.To solve the problems with Teflon (which was soon banned in cookware) manufacturers tried many things including: high temperature factory baked on vegetable oil coatings, alternative plastics that are more robust than Teflon, trade secret coatings, ceramics, etc.Currently the most successful coatings for nonstick cookware are ceramics.Nonstick is a coating of the substance "Teflon", it is easily scratched so one must use heatproof plastic or wooden utensils in the cookware coated with it.

Is teflon a non-stick substance?

Yes, Teflon is a nonstick chemical used on cookware. Teflon is made up of a substance called Polytetrafluoroethylene, which is considered to be one of the most slippery substance in existence. When used in high temperature (over 400 degrees Fahrenheit), this chemical has been found to release some highly toxic chemicals such as PFIB, carbonyl fluoride, and MFA. While EWG continues to track the changes in manufacturing practices for nonstick cookware, we highly recommend stainless steel and cast iron as great alternatives to nonstick cooking surface.
