What cookware on the market actually has quasicrystal coating? Any recommendations?
- nate_meurer 8y agoOnly one: Sitram Cybernox, which was discontinued about 5 years ago. They have a metallic quasicrystal alloy coating applied over a stainless body. They have a heavy aluminum sandwich base, similar to the Sitram Profiserie line, possibly thicker. They're very well built, and were positioned as Sitram's top line. I have a couple. In terms of non-stickiness, it's somewhere between stainless and well-seasoned cast iron. Someone expecting it to compete with PTFE nonstick will be disappointed. EDIT: I remembered something. The Cybernox coating is very vulnerable to pitting corrosion, much more so than stainless steel. Both of my Cybernox pans are pitted from light use.
