> Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene. It belongs to the per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)) and has numerous applications. The commonly known brand name of PTFE-based composition is Teflon by Chemours, a spin-off from DuPont, which originally discovered the compound in 1938.

Quoting Wikipedia doesn't actually change the nature of the chemical at hand. Would it help if I edited Wikipedia to clarify things?

PTFE is inert, it is not chemically active like a PFAS. The fact that it has a related chemical structure is interesting, but also not relevant.

Yes! that's the whole point of Wikipedia!
