CTOnews.com, October 21 (Xinhua)-- SharkNinja has recently suffered a class action against its Ninja NeverStick advanced cooker series, which has been accused of violating the laws of physics and thermodynamics.

CTOnews.com Note: SharkNinja mainly produces Shark brand floor sweeping robots and Ninja kitchen utensils. When promoting SharkNinja non-stick cooking utensils, it claims that it has been quenched at a high temperature of up to 30,000 degrees Fahrenheit (about 16648.8 degrees Celsius), which is more durable than the current mainstream 900 degrees Fahrenheit (about 482.2 degrees Celsius).

The specification said in the promotion that the high-temperature quenching process fuses "plasma ceramic particles" into the surface of the pot to create a super-hard textured surface and interlocks through a unique coating to achieve excellent non-stick effect.

The class action was led by Patricia Brown (Patricia Brown), who said that based on information released by NASA, the sun's surface temperature was 10340 degrees Fahrenheit, while SharkNinja non-stick cooking utensils were processed at three times the temperature.

Brown also believes that heating SharkNinja pans to this temperature is physically impossible because aluminum evaporates into gas at 4478 degrees Fahrenheit.

But the Washington Post quoted a very old article outlining a ceramic coating process:

Heated to 30000 degrees Fahrenheit, titanium and ceramics can break down their atoms to form a mass of charged particles (Techspeak: plasma), which are emitted at supersonic speeds on the surface of an aluminum pot, where it is anchored directly in the metal to form a very hard, unscratched surface.

At present, it is impossible to confirm whether the processing process of SharkNinja non-stick cooking utensils has reached 30,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Foreign technology media The Verge has issued an inquiry, but SharkNinja has not responded.
