Teflon and Teflon are actually different commercial names for the same substance, and they both refer to the same high-performance synthetic polymer material, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). This unique material was discovered by American chemist Roy Plankett in 1938 when he was developing it at DuPont, and DuPont later commercialized it under the trademark "Teflon", which is often referred to as Teflon. In China and parts of Asia, "Teflon" is translated as "Teflon" for translation and marketing reasons.
The main characteristics of PTFE are its excellent high and low temperature resistance, extremely low coefficient of friction and excellent chemical stability, and almost no reaction with all chemicals, so it is known as the "king of plastics". Because of its special molecular structure, its surface is extremely smooth and has good non-stick, and it is widely used in the kitchenware industry to make non-stick pans and other products.
Whether it is Teflon or Teflon, in addition to shining in the field of kitchen utensils, it is also widely used in aerospace, petrochemical, wire and cable, medical equipment and many other high-tech fields, such as lubricating materials, anti-corrosion materials, insulating materials, etc., showing its incomparable practical value and technical advantages.
To sum up, although Teflon and Teflon have different names, they are essentially the same products, but they are just customary name differences formed in different regions and cultural backgrounds.
