In all likelihood, the issue is that the rewritten URL is getting re-rewritten. Rewrite directives, at least in .htaccess context, get re-executed after a URL rewrite. I think what you are trying to accomplish can be done with:

RewriteRule ^productfilter.php - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/?$ productfilter.php?category=$1 [NC,L]

The first RewriteRule just declines to rewrite when productfilter.php already starts the path.
