The development of science and technology has brought great convenience to our life. When we live in the kitchen, the tools we must use are all kinds of POTS. In order to better cook, the current pot generally has a good function, that is non-stick pot. It’s nonstick because it has a coating on the surface. When we use the pot for a long time, the coating may fall off. What should we do in this case? Does a nonstick pan still work when the coating comes off?
Can non-stick coating fall off and still be used
Nonstick pot that cooking will not stick to the bottom of the pot, because the bottom of the pot with non-stick coating, common, non-sticky can be the best Teflon (Teflon) coating and ceramic coating. Then there are special processes of iron and stainless steel pot.
1. The advent of “non-stick pan” has brought great convenience to people’s life. People don’t have to worry about the fact that meat will burn accidentally when cooking, and the fish slices stick to the wall of the pan when frying fish. This kind of non-stick pan and ordinary pan appearance and no relationship, only in the inner surface of the pan coated with a layer of polytetrafluoroethylene, the use of polytetrafluoroethylene excellent thermal properties, chemical properties, easy to clean performance and non-toxic performance made of this popular kitchen utensils.
2. The main raw material of nonstick coating is polytetrafluoroethylene. Today’s nonstick pans, in whatever form they come and in whatever country they come from, are made mainly of Teflon, which is highly fortified with antioxidants and stabilizers to improve the resistance of teflon to high temperatures. In short, no matter what they call it, say what substance, its main component is not without teflon.
3. Nonstick pans don’t stick because of a layer of paint called “Teflon” on the bottom of the pan. This substance is the general term of fluorinated resin, including polytetrafluoroethylene, polyperfluorinated ethylene propylene and various fluorinated copolymers, because these compounds have the advantages of high temperature resistance, low temperature, self-lubrication, chemical stability, it is widely used in non-stick cookware, waterproof breathable materials (such as waterproof clothing), leather, automotive parts, and microwave oven popcorn bag. From the point of view of health: non-stick pot is not as healthy as iron pot.
Two, non-stick coating off how to do
1. The coating of non-stick pan is generally not directly off (will only slowly wear), if it falls off that the quality of the pan is very poor, it is recommended to replace the non-stick pan, the coating itself is harmful to human body.
2. Do not stick the coating off the pot, do not cook at high temperature, the temperature reaches 250 degrees on the release of PTFE is certainly harmful to human body. If you feel discarded pity or steam things! The vapor is only 100 degrees.
From a practical point of view, when the coating of a nonstick pan comes off, we should not use it. Because the coating will stick to the pan after falling off, it will be very inconvenient in the process of use. So it is not recommended that you continue to use a nonstick pan when the coating falls off. In addition, the coating of the non-stick pan is also harmful to human health, so we had better not use the non-stick pan falling off the coating. Finally, Xiaobian would like to say that non-stick pan itself has harmful substances to human body, we had better use less.
