i've been going thru tons of different types of plastic and could only find one type that is suitable (probably there is a few more). for space/vacuum use.

its PEEK

on the other hand i don't know when this type of plastic (clear) was developed.

most of the clear plastics have a melting point close to the temperature of the surface of moon. 140-160C degrees.

on the other hand nasa really uses ziploc brand double seal bags to send food to space (but they don't leave the space station or shuttle during the travel).
