Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cables, and in particular to a medium voltage flame retardant cable and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the growing demand for electricity in modern society, cables, as core components of power transmission, have been widely used in industries, construction, transportation and other fields. Especially in complex environments such as high-rise buildings, underground facilities and offshore wind power, medium-voltage cables (6-35kV) have become the first choice due to their efficient power transmission capabilities. However, cables are easily affected by factors such as high temperature, short circuit, overload, etc. during operation, leading to fire accidents. Fires not only cause huge economic losses, but may also threaten the safety of people's lives. Therefore, improving the flame retardant properties of cables has become a key issue that needs to be urgently addressed in the power industry.

[0003] The flame retardant performance of cables is directly related to the safety and reliability of power systems. Traditional cables are easy to burn and release a lot of toxic smoke in fires, which aggravates the fire hazards. Flame retardant cables can effectively reduce the risk of fire by inhibiting the spread of flames and reducing smoke generation, thus buying precious time for personnel evacuation and fire fighting. The application of flame retardant cables is particularly important in crowded places such as high-rise buildings and subway tunnels.

[0004] At present, cable flame retardant technology mainly relies on the addition of flame retardants. Common flame retardants include halogen flame retardants, halogen-free flame retardants and composite flame retardants. Although halogen flame retardants have significant flame retardant effects, they release toxic gases (such as hydrogen chloride and hydrogen bromide) when burned, which are harmful to the environment and human health. Halogen-free flame retardants (such as aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide) are favored for their environmental protection, but their flame retardant efficiency is low, and at high filling content, they will affect the mechanical and electrical properties of the cable.

[0005] In recent years, researchers have improved the performance of flame retardant materials through modification technology. For example, surface modification technology (such as silane coupling agent) is used to improve the compatibility of aluminum hydroxide with polymer materials, thereby improving its dispersibility and flame retardant effect. In addition, the application of composite flame retardant technology has also made significant progress. By combining aluminum hydroxide with other halogen-free flame retardants (such as phosphate esters and nitrogen compounds), the flame retardant efficiency can be improved while reducing the filling amount.

[0006] The present invention aims to develop a medium-voltage flame-retardant cable with high-efficiency flame retardancy by improving the material of the cable flame-retardant layer. Summary of the invention
