Carbon Florine bonds are some of the strongest you will find. Carbon tetrafluoride CF4 is almost as safe as nitrogen at room temperature. Tetrafluoroethylene C2F4 is actually explosive on the other hand because of it’s carbon carbon bond, the stuff is happy to spit out the carbon and get CF4.

Carbon tetrafluoride and Carbon tetrachloride are the two "carbon tets" you never want to mix up.
