Below 450F or so they don't react with anything. PTFE won't react with your egg you're frying, or the inside of your knee. (PTFE is used in surgical implants, among other things that can safely go inside your body)

- GrantMoyer 2y agoMany medical implants are made of PTFE because of how inert it is.
