Like any other polymer decomposition process, the products of PTFE decomposition depends on the chemical species present while PTFE is undergoing the process and temperatures.
General process is this : Decomposition is initiated by random-chain scission, followed by depolymerization. Termination is by dis-proportionation. And all of this happens rapidly above 600 K (~326 C). There are no other conditions applied for the decomposition to take place hence can happen in dry or aqueous environments, which would give different by products. Cooking below 200 C, it would be completely safe since the mass loss below 300 C is undetectable. Only above the glass transition temperature (~326 C) is the mass loss significant.
Decomposition products will depend on the environment and usually Oxygen usually does not enter the cycle directly but through water, to give species like,
- Carbonyl fluoride
- Carbonyl difluoride
As expected other species like fluorinated alkanes and alkenes are obtained like,
- the monomer, Carbon tetrafluoridetetrafluoroethylene
- Hexafluoroethane
- Octafluorocyclobutane
- Octafluoroisobutylene
- Perfluoroisobutylene
- Tetrafluoroethylene and more.
However, the chemicals (species) listed above are for controlled lab experiments. What happens in real life cooking scenario is not (or cannot) be anticipated. But, it can be readily said that the above species can react with other chemicals in food to give fluorinated compounds that will be harmful for humans. As a precaution, one should not cook above 200 C on PTFE coated utensils to be completely safe.
