Solution
Assertion and reason both are correct statement but reason does not explain assertion.
Explanation:
Teflon is manufactured by heating tetrafluoroethylene with a free radical or persulphate catalyst at high pressures. It is chemically inert and resistant to attack by corrosive reagents. It is used in making oil seals and gaskets and also used for non-stick surface coated utensils.
