The invention provides a preparation method of a novel cable sheath layer. The novel cable sheath layer comprises
silicone rubber, a heat-conducting insulating material, a
flame-retardant material, white
carbon black, a
silane coupling agent,
dicumyl peroxide,
silicone oil, an
antioxidant, a light stabilizer and the like. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly, modifying a heat-conducting insulating material and a
flame-retardant material to improve the
dispersity and interfacial compatibility, and then uniformly dispersing filler in a
silicone rubber matrix through banburying, open milling and
vulcanization processes to finally form a high-performance cable sheath layer. Nanometer spherical aluminum
oxide grafted
hexagonal boron nitride is used as a heat-conducting insulating material, so that the heat
conductivity of the sheath layer is remarkably improved, and excellent electrical insulation performance is kept. Besides, modified
magnesium-rich
silicate is used as a
flame-retardant material, so that the cable has an excellent flame-retardant effect, and an
antioxidant and a light stabilizer are combined, so that the
weather resistance and the
aging resistance of the sheath layer are improved. The prepared cable sheath layer is suitable for the fields of high-
voltage cables, 5G communication,
power transmission,
aerospace, military use,
rail transit and the like, and has a good application prospect.
