there are some thermosetting polycarbonates on the market that allow for that kind of high temp applications. GE use one that they call LEXAN, a registred name, and yes is it possible to be clear. Bakelite would flow at too low a temp to be useful.
The problems is see, are - The temperatures are high enough to make thermosetters flow - Injection moulding of the part - Ensuring that a seali formed by the cover - Keeping the bloody thing clean Not a bad idea, a litlle half baked, but if you pull it off.......... |
