heatproof
Won't melt easily
Heatproof describes materials or objects that can withstand high temperatures without damage, melting, or burning: a heatproof baking dish, heatproof gloves.
The term appears most often in cookware and kitchen contexts, where items must endure oven or stovetop heat.
Interchangeable with heat-resistant, though heatproof suggests stronger protection.
