Teflon coating, which is widely used on frying pans and hot plates, will be explained regarding the causes of peeling and how to address them.
Teflon coating is applied to frying pans and hot plates to prevent sticking. This explains the causes of peeling and how to address them. ■ Causes of Peeling Teflon is a brand name for fluoropolymer. Fluoropolymer is a type of plastic, making it softer and more prone to scratches compared to metal. The continuous use temperature is also lower, at up to 260°C, compared to metal. Therefore, simply scraping with a metal spatula or scrubbing hard with an abrasive sponge can cause scratches and lead to peeling. Additionally, extreme high-temperature environments, such as dry heating, can cause degradation or decomposition, so caution is necessary. Use a spatula made of resin, clean with a soft sponge, and if using a neutral detergent, it is important to rinse thoroughly. Residual surfactants can make the surface more prone to sticking. ■ Solutions In principle, Teflon coatings and fluoropolymer coatings cannot be partially repaired. Therefore, if it is a frying pan, we recommend replacing it. For industrial parts, reprocessing for peeling may be considered. Please contact us regarding the peeling methods and suitable base materials. Teflon-coated products can be used for a long time depending on how they are used. We recommend utilizing their features effectively.
