what temperature is solus proto rated to?

I was under the impression that solus proto was a high heat tolerant resin, but every application I have used the resin for that subjected it to high heat caused me problems.

can someone tell me what the max working temperature the resin is rated at?

just to be clear im some of the uses im attempting for this resin is certainly out of scope for what it intended to be used for , like example im printing dies that are used to emboss leather...the dies are subjected to high heat and pressure , but they actually work well for a few pressings but the dies eventually start warping.

im using about 320 degrees but I can lower the temperature if the resin is not rated that high but Id like to have some sort of guide as to what temperature I should not cross.

Im having the same issues with vulcanized molds, I send those out so I don't know what temperature hes using but the masters are warping as well.

Is it a curing issue or is this resin just not high heat tolerant?
