Problems solved by technology

[0003] During the laying process of the submarine optical cable, the weight and tension of the submarine cable will cause relative slippage of the inner layers of the submarine optical cable. When the internal PE sheath layer and the copper tube layer slip too much, the PE sheath layer will be damaged. Pulled off, resulting in damage to the submarine cable

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving binding power of a submarine cable insulating layer and a copper tube. The method includes the steps that ethylene acrylic acid copolymer and polyethylene are mixed to be uniform, and a binding material is obtained; a polyethylene material serves as an insulating layer material; a drying machine is utilized to dry the binding material and the insulating material, and then a single screw extruder is preheated to 160-290 DEG C; the copper tube is subjected to paying off, the copper tube is cleaned with ethyl alcohol in the first place before entering an extruder die head and preheated with a preheater, and the surface temperature of the preheated copper tube is 60-200 DEG C; a double-layer co-extrusion mode is adopted for the single screw extruder, and a binding layer and an insulating layer are arranged on the surface of the copper tube in an extrusion molding mode; gradually cooling is conducted with a cold water groove. The method is simple, operation is convenient to conduct, the binding power between the copper tube and the insulating layer is greatly improved, and the problem that the insulating layer falls off the copper tube in the laying process of a submarine cable is solved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of submarine cables, in particular to a method for improving the bonding force between the insulating layer of the submarine cable and a copper pipe. Background technique [0002] Submarine optical cables have played an important role in the field of communications, especially international communications, with their advantages of large capacity, high reliability and excellent transmission quality. [0003] During the laying process of the submarine optical cable, the weight and tension of the submarine cable will cause relative slippage of the inner layers of the submarine optical cable. When the inner PE sheath layer and the copper pipe layer slip too much, the PE sheath layer will be damaged. Pull off, resulting in damage to the submarine cable. Therefore, in the production of submarine optical cables, there are higher requirements for the adhesion between the PE sheath and the copper pipe. [0004] In order to solve the ...
