Shame that hot water can be over 62C...
62 C is about the temeprature of a cup of 'hot' tea.
I've used this.

one of a new generation of polymers with all the characteristics of a tough, machinable engineering material, yet fuses and becomes easily mouldable between 30°C and 62°C.
I used a hot air blower to heat it up.
That would appear to be the same stuff.
So I wouldn't use it where the temperature is likely to exceed 30C
Maybe it's not the same stuff then :-)
Time will tell...
