Does non stick inner coating of rice cooker harmful to human body?
Whether the lining coating is harmful to the human body is complicated, and any statement that tells you that it is definitely harmful or absolutely harmless is irresponsible. The reason is: there are different types of hand coating, such as Teflon coating is the most mature, relatively high safety; other coatings are not mature, security is relatively low. On the other hand, even the most sophisticated Teflon, its safety now have different test data, it simply is not absolutely safe. Detailed health theory and different coating's health characteristics, please Baidu my Bowen "how to choose rice cooker, electric pressure cooker and its inner liner."".
Rice cooker regular non stick coating is the United States DuPont Co invented Teflon non stick material, this material is very stable in 250 degrees below and inert, not easily broken down, not easy to react with other substances, surface hardness and adhesion are very high.In use, as long as the temperature is not more than 200 degrees, without hard rice dipper, wire ball, metal tools, scratches the surface, it is quite safe.
Proposed to formal manufacturers to buy, and do not empty pot burning. Directive opinion: because do not touch, it is in the inside of ordinary iron pan, besmear the chemical substance that calls "polytetrafluoroethylene" on the surface. If single and shoddy products possible in this layer "material" is mixed with fluorine, a heating will release harmful toxins. Good quality nonstick pot, there is no such problem. But the "TEFLON" if it is heated to 400 DEG C, will decompose and release ", which is highly toxic gas tetrafluoroethylene".
