[Jewelry making - Article 00395] - [Orchid] Strontium Titanate

========[ Invite a Friend - http://www.ganoksin.com/invite.htm  ]========

    I was told that strontium titanate is heat sensitive and should not
    be removed from the dop by heating the dop. 

    I have a nice SRB sitting in acetone for longer than I am interested
    in waiting and still can not get it off. 

    I find it hard to believe that anything would happen to it if it sat
    in boiling water for two minutes but I do not want to risk this
    without some moral support. 

    Oh yes... it is epoxied on. 

    It finally came off since posting this to two other groups but I
    still do not have an answer on the main issure which is..... 

    Can this gem material tolerate boiling water for a few minutes?
