I would look at epoxies, most (many) will handle 150C. Heat ot the highest temperature expected, and then they will remain solid to that temp. Check:the West 105/205 or 206, or MGS epoxy systems. http://www.wicksaircraft.com/catalog/product_search_results.php/start_num=11~search=ZXBveHk=/index.html For fillers, the micro ballons are considered non-structural, but might work for your application , or milled glass http://www.wicksaircraft.com/catalog/product_cat.php/subid=5395/index.html If you have someone building a composite airplane or boat in your area, they should have the materials, and probably will give you the small quantity you need.
