Greetings.
Anyone know of an epoxy that won't break down in molten
naphthalene (about 85C)?  We're measuring the temperature
of liquid naphthalene by immersing a thermistor fixed to
the end of a small glass tube into the liquid.  So far, 
we've used standard, hardware-store epoxy to fix the
thermistor to the tube - this epoxy provides a strong
bond, but then eventually falls apart in the naphthalene.
Any ideas or experiences with epoxies in aromatic solvents?

Post or send email to pfmdtimken@cyber.widener.edu.
Thanks - Mark Timken
