2.3 Other hazards

When heated to temperatures above 260ºC (500°F), PTFE resins begin to give off vapors that may cause temporary flu-like symptoms if inhaled. Thermal decomposition leads to the formation of oxidized products containing Carbon, Fluorine and Oxygen. The ACGIH states that no exposure limit is recommended pending determination of the toxicity of the products, but air concentration should be minimal. Likewise, when using this product avoid smoking for the same reason.
