Skip; standard parchment's water-repellent finish source unclear.
Disposable parchment liners typically use water and grease-repellent coatings. Manufacturer discloses no PFAS status or coating composition, creating moderate concern for food contact use.

What Amazon.com: 125PCS Disposable Toaster Oven is made of, ingredients and materials
This is cellulose-based parchment paper treated with an undisclosed water and grease-resistant coating to prevent food adhesion and moisture penetration during air frying. The coating formulation is not specified by the manufacturer, which is the core concern, parchment's water-repellent finish is historically achieved via silicone, wax, or increasingly via fluorochemicals (PFAS). Since Cuisinart does not disclose the coating chemistry, the PFAS risk cannot be ruled out. Parchment paper itself is inert at typical air frying temperatures (below 450F for most models), but the coating's thermal stability and composition are unknown.
What’s concerning
Waterproof / stain-resistant treatment
Water-repellent coating treatments have historically used PFAS.
Category baseline
The starting point for this type of product, before anything specific to this product is counted.
No PFAS disclosure
No public statement from the brand about PFAS in this product.
PFAS
Coating source is not disclosed; water-repellent parchment coatings commonly rely on fluorochemicals, but silicone or wax alternatives exist. No confirmation available for this specific product, so risk cannot be ruled out.
Source, ATSDR ↗Thermal degradation of undisclosed coating
Air fryer temperatures can exceed 400F; stability of the unidentified coating at these temperatures is unknown. Coating flaking or off-gassing is a risk if composition includes unstable polymers or additives.
Microplastic or coating particle shedding
Disposable parchment liners in high-heat environments may shed microscopic coating particles into food if the coating is poorly adhered or begins to degrade. No test data specific to this product exists on public record.
What’s reassuring
BPA & bisphenols
Parchment itself does not require plasticizers, but some coating formulations may use them. No evidence or reports of BPA in parchment liners is on record, but coating chemistry is undisclosed here.
Source, FDA ↗Formaldehyde / VOCs
Formaldehyde releasers are uncommon in food-contact parchment coatings, but not ruled out without full ingredient disclosure. No reports of formaldehyde emissions from parchment liners are established.

The brand's record and disclosure
Cuisinart does not publish ingredient or material transparency statements for disposable food-contact products such as parchment liners. The product listing contains no certifications (such as certification by NSF, FDA clearance statements, or PFAS-free claims). No recalls or public safety violations specific to these liners are on record. The silent stance on coating composition reflects a broader industry pattern for disposable parchment products, where disclosure is uncommon and not legally mandated for this product category in the US.
How it compares in its category
Disposable parchment liners occupy a middle ground, they avoid the durability and coating-degradation risks of reusable silicone or non-stick cookware, but they introduce single-use waste and depend entirely on an undisclosed coating. Most competing brands (Airloom, Kana, unbranded generic parchment) offer no better transparency on coating composition. Uncoated parchment (sold separately) eliminates the coating hazard entirely but provides less non-stick performance and is not marketed for air fryer use. Silicone mats are reusable but carry their own thermal stability questions at high air fryer temperatures.
If you buy it
Use liners at temperatures below 420F to minimize any thermal release from the coating; most air fryer recipes fall within this range. Replace the liner with each use (product is disposable, so this is expected) rather than reusing a degraded one. Discard any liner that shows visible damage, discoloration, or peeling, as this may indicate coating breakdown. Store in a cool, dry place; exposure to moisture or heat before use can degrade the water-resistant finish. Monitor for any odor when heating; an unusual smell could indicate coating degradation and warrants switching products.
