Perfluorochemicals are a group of synthetic chemicals containing carbon-fluorine bonds. They have unique properties like resistance to heat, water, and oil, making them useful in various industrial applications such as non-stick cookware, water repellent coatings, and firefighting foams. However, some perfluorochemicals have been linked to environmental and health concerns due to their persistence in the environment and potential toxicity.
