Description

[0008] As a further technical solution, the weight ratio of the hydroxyacetamide to ammonium octamolybdate is 0.5-1:19.

[0009] In the present invention, when the weight ratio of hydroxyacetamide to ammonium octamolybdate is 0.5-1:19, it is helpful to further improve the tensile strength of the protective layer and improve the problem of severe smoke generation during combustion.

[0010] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of the modified ammonium octamolybdate phosphate comprises the following steps: dissolving hydroxyacetamide and polyhydroxyalkanoate in tetrahydrofuran, adding ammonium octamolybdate, dispersing evenly, and drying to obtain the modified ammonium octamolybdate.

[0014] As a further technical solution, the raw material of the protective layer also includes 1 to 3 parts of lubricant, and the lubricant includes one or more of calcium stearate, silicone masterbatch, and microcrystalline wax.

[0015] In the present invention, the addition of lubricant can reduce the friction resistance in the process of preparing the protective layer and improve the preparation efficiency. The lubricant is preferably calcium stearate.

[0016] As a further technical solution, the raw material of the protective layer also includes 0.5 to 1 parts of ultraviolet absorber, and the ultraviolet absorber includes one or more of ultraviolet absorber UV-328, ultraviolet absorber UV-531, and ultraviolet absorber UV-9.

[0017] In the present invention, the addition of the ultraviolet absorber can improve the weather resistance of the protective layer and improve the product quality of the low-smoke and environmentally friendly cable as a whole. The ultraviolet absorber is preferably the ultraviolet absorber UV-328.

[0018] The present invention also proposes a method for preparing the low-smoke environmentally friendly cable, comprising the following steps: S1, mixing, extruding and granulating the raw materials of the protective layer to obtain protective layer particles; S2. Extruding the protective layer particles onto the surface of the conductor to obtain a low-smoke environmentally friendly cable.

[0019] As a further technical solution, in step S1, the temperature during extrusion is 100-150°C.

[0020] The working principle and beneficial effects of the present invention are: In the present invention, ammonium octamolybdate is modified by using polyhydroxyalkanoate, so that the dispersion ability of ammonium octamolybdate in the protective layer is improved, the agglomeration of ammonium octamolybdate in the protective layer is effectively avoided, and the adverse effects of agglomeration on the tensile strength of the protective layer and smoke generation during combustion are eliminated, thereby significantly improving the tensile strength of the protective layer and improving the problem of severe smoke generation during combustion.
