Usualy these are made with alcoholl rather then Mercury as mercury is expensive and can be dangerous.

To reduce the risk of a thermometer breaking (and for it to be used under water) Most companies go with digital thermometers, for they are very resistant to damage and they have the nuber displayed on a screen, rather than having to read a scale.
