This is super promising. Sad that it doesn’t work on Teflon yet, but hopefully they can get it there.

a chain of incredibly strong carbon-fluorine bonds
Pedantic mode: The longest chain of C-F bonds you can have has length two.

their example seems to have 10. is it just fake?

You can have as many C-F bonds as you want i a single molecule, but not in a chain, because F will be connected to only a single C.

yeah I think it was refering to a carbon chain that contains c-f bonds on the carbon. not a chaain of c-f bonds. EDITED - ah I finally noticed the pedantic mode which I must have glossed over before.
