Guess the elastic that holds mask to his head is made from an advanced nano tube synthetic plastic; kind of like today's walmart plastic bags.
The straps were leather, which is skin. If you have a problem with leather straps being preserved, you should also have a problem with Jason and the woman being preserved, given that they are both covered with skin.
All of the Jason masks since part 6 have had leather straps. The ones used in parts 3, 4, and 5 had elastic straps.
By the way, even if the straps had been elastic material, why do you think extremely cold temperatures would bother them? Extremely cold temperatures preserve everything, because as the temperature drops, natural processes which cause matter to deteriorate stop or slow down (and if you could reach absolute zero, everything would stop).
The real problem with that part of the story is that neither Jason nor the woman were in an oxygen-free / inert gas environment. Presumably the cryogenic chamber would have been designed to be an oxygen-free environment, but Jason stuck his machete through the door, which ruined that. And the woman wasn't even in the chamber at all. Oxygen causes oxidation. Think "freezer burn" (damage caused by oxidation and dehydration). And over the course of hundreds of years, both Jason and the woman would have had severe, deep freezer burn on/in their flesh. They would have looked like Ötzi the Iceman:
