[0026] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are as follows: The sheath material of the cable of this application includes methyl vinyl silicone rubber, ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber, modified zinc oxide, and modifier A; EPDM rubber has good elasticity and excellent low-temperature resistance, weather resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, and electrical insulation; the addition of methyl vinyl silicone rubber can further improve the low-temperature resistance of EPDM rubber; the modified zinc oxide prepared in this application is modified by sulfur-containing silane coupling agent and vinyl silane coupling agent, wherein sulfur and vinyl participate in rubber vulcanization, improve the dispersibility of zinc oxide in rubber, increase the degree of rubber crosslinking, and enhance the compatibility between methyl vinyl silicone rubber and EPDM rubber;

[0027] Modifier A was prepared using 5-cuicoalkylresorcinol, 4,5-difluorophthalic acid, and hydroxyl-terminated methyl vinyl silicone oil. The long alkyl chain in 5-cuicoalkylresorcinol helps improve tensile properties and cold resistance; the fluorine in 4,5-difluorophthalic acid also helps improve cold resistance; the addition of hydroxyl-terminated methyl vinyl silicone oil can improve weather resistance and flexibility, but too much should not be introduced, otherwise it will lead to performance degradation and processing difficulties; the long alkyl chain in modifier A has good compatibility with EPDM rubber, and the hydroxyl-terminated methyl vinyl silicone oil has good compatibility with methyl vinyl silicone rubber. Therefore, the addition of modifier A also improves the compatibility between the two rubbers.

[0028] The sheath layer of this invention also includes an antifreeze adhesive coating, comprising hydrophobic fumed silica, EPDM rubber, modifier B, and modifier A. Modifier A improves the tensile strength and cold resistance of the coating. Modifier B is prepared from 5-monoalkylresorcinol and hydroxyl-terminated methyl vinyl silicone oil, which has good lubricity and, upon addition, provides the coating with excellent de-icing ability. The hydrophobic fumed silica is waterproof and anti-icing, and its porous structure can adsorb the modifier, providing good storage capacity and greatly enhancing the durability of the coating. Both the sheath layer and the antifreeze adhesive coating contain vinyl groups. The initiator solution is sprayed first, followed by the antifreeze adhesive coating and then heated for curing, which improves the crosslinking degree of the sheath layer and the coating, and also improves the adhesion between the sheath layer and the antifreeze adhesive coating.
