The pan is sprayed with liquid PTFE and heated to around 800 degrees Fahrenheit.The layers then solidify into a smooth, slick coating.When you later cook eggs in this PTFE-coated pan,the extra tight carbon-fluorine bonds just ignore the water and fat and protein molecules in the eggs.Without those interactions,the food just slides around without sticking.
