Problems solved by technology

However, at present, most EPDM rubbers use magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide as flame retardants. The flame retardant efficiency of such inorganic flame retardants is low, and a large amount of filling is required to make EPDM rubber reach the ideal level. Flame retardant grade, but it will also affect the processing performance, insulation performance and mechanical properties of EPDM rubber and its composite materials, especially the elongation at break.

Abstract

The invention provides an insulating composition for electric cable outer sheaths, wherein the insulating composition comprises, by weight, 60-70 parts of ethylene propylene diene monomer, 30-40 partsof low density polyethylene, 0.5-2 parts of polyethylene wax, 4-10 parts of an antioxidant, 0.5-3 parts of p-benzoquinone dioxime, 2-5 parts of dicumyl peroxide, 50-100 parts of a flame retardant filler, and 1-5 parts of a synergistic flame retardant. According to the present invention, by adding an appropriate amount of polyethylene wax to the blended composition, the entanglement effect of thepolymer molecular chain is reduced, the processing property of the blended composition is improved, magnesium hydroxide is wetted, and the interface compatibility between magnesium hydroxide and polymers is improved, such that magnesium hydroxide is uniformly dispersed in the polymer, and the mechanical property reducing of the blended composition due to the agglomeration of the magnesium hydroxide particles is avoided; and the invention further provides a flame retardant composition for electric cable outer sheaths, and a preparation method thereof.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of cables, in particular to a composition for a cable outer sheath and a cable containing the composition. Background technique [0002] In the cable preparation process, PVC is commonly used as the base material for the cable sheath. However, since PVC contains a large amount of chlorine, it will release a large amount of toxic gas when burned, which is harmful to the human body and the environment. With the continuous improvement of environmental protection requirements, the use of insulating materials replacing PVC has become an inevitable trend in the development of cables. Under this trend, EPDM rubber and its composite materials are widely used in the preparation of cable outer sheaths as base materials to replace PVC. EPDM rubber is mainly composed of ethylene, propylene, and unsaturated third monomers. It is made of ternary copolymerization, has excellent heat resistance and weather resistance, and chemical s...
