General

OMEGA®CC High Temperature Cement is a zircon base, two-part
ceramic cement which has many exceptional characteristics including:

• Resists temperatures to 1550°F (843°C) as well as cryogenic conditions
(-200°C).

• Resists water, oil, electricity, most solvents and all acids (except
hydrofluoric).

• Heat conductive and thermal shock resistant.

• Excellent electrical insulator.

• Adheres to metals, ceramics, glass, porcelain, and most other surfaces.

• Excellent mechanical strength.

• Ceramic-like body.

CC High Temperature Cement is an inorganic cement used for
embedding heating elements; insulating thermocouples; coating
resistors and coils; sealing and assembling parts which require high
resistance to electricity, chemicals, and thermal shock.

Handling

CC Cement Liquid Binder is an alkaline material and may irritate eyes
and skin. Avoid contact with eyes and skin by wearing gloves and
goggles or a face shield. CC Cement powder Filler is a harmful dust.
Avoid breathing dust by wearing respirators. Wash thoroughly with
soap and water after handling the liquid Binder and/or the powder
Filler before eating and smoking.

Shelf Life

The CC High Temperature Cement has a shelf life of one (1) year when
stored in closed, tightly sealed containers in a dry location at 70°F.

Application

The CC High Temperature Cement is supplied in two containers-one being
the powder, Zirconium Silicate, the other being the liquid, Sodium Silicate.
These two components are mixed together as needed. The usual mixture is

80% powder Filler to 20% liquid Binder by weight. CC Cement may be
mixed to a thinner consistency by regulating the amount of liquid Binder
used; however, the use of excess liquid will reduce mechanical strength,
increase shrinkage and delay the set time. CC may be used in a vacuum,

depending on application, without out-gasing. The mixture may be applied
by brushing, dipping, pouring molding or by mechanical dispenser.

CAUTION

• Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors - work in well ventilated area

• Protect skin against contamination

• Protect eyes against contamination

• Do not take internally
