scorchproof
Won't burn easily
Scorchproof describes materials or surfaces that resist damage from high heat or burning.
Fabrics, ironing board covers, and cookware may be marketed as scorchproof to indicate they won't discolor, melt, or char under typical heat exposure.
The scorchproof coating kept the pan looking new even after years of use.
Like similar compounds ending in -proof, it suggests protection rather than absolute immunity.
