Is SilverStone cookware safe?

A. The SilverStone nonstick coating is partly Teflon. It is made from Teflon (PTFE) plus another polymer called PFA. Even with food in the pan, these hot spots can reach Teflon-destroying temperatures, with negative consequences for both the life of the pan and the probability of toxic-fume emission.

Can you put SilverStone cookware in the oven?

Are SilverStone pots dishwasher safe?

Why is Teflon bad?

Dangers of Overheating. Generally speaking, Teflon is a safe and stable compound. However, at temperatures above 570°F (300°C), Teflon coatings on nonstick cookware start to break down, releasing toxic chemicals into the air ( 14 ). Inhaling these fumes may lead to polymer fume fever, also known as the Teflon flu.

Is Teflon still cancerous?
