Problems solved by technology

[0007]Historically, halogen-free compounds have also suffered from poorer chemical and environmental resistance compared to halogenated products, and have struggled to meet both electrical and flammability requirements industry standard
This is partly because it is easier to meet electrical requirements by reducing the filler content, such as magnesium hydroxide or aluminum hydroxide, but it is more difficult to meet flammability standards if you do so

Abstract

A zero-halogen wire or cable insulation comprises at least an inner layer and an outer layer which comprises uncoated magnesium hydroxide, wherein the insulation is applied to the wire or cable by co-extrusion or sequential extrusion of the layers.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to wire or cable insulations and methods for their preparation, in particular "zero-halogen" insulations comprising multiple layers. Background technique [0002] In many industries it is necessary for wire or cable insulation to meet stringent durability requirements in order to ensure use in those environments. An example of this is the automotive industry, where it is required that the automotive wiring used in the wiring harness be stable for a considerable period of time when exposed to high temperatures (e.g. certain automotive wiring insulators must meet "Class 3 "Requirements, "Level 3" requires 3000 hours at 125°C). In addition, insulators for automotive wiring need to be resistant to exposure to aggressive fluids (eg, engine oil and windshield washer fluid) commonly found in automotive environments. Furthermore, if wire and cable insulation for the automotive industry is to be used effectively in this industry,...
