Abstract
There is no stronger bond in organic chemistry than the one between carbon and fluorine. Chains of carbon and fluorine, such as those that make up perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), have a half-life measured in thousands of years. It is PFAS that make Teflon cooking utensils non-stick, that confer oil and water resistance onto Gore-Tex clothing, and allow processed foods to slide off intact from their packaging.
