The invention relates to the technical field of cables, and discloses a multilayer
flame-retardant heat-conducting crosslinked
polyethylene cable structure and a preparation process thereof. The product sequentially comprises a conductor layer, a heat-conducting
flame-retardant buffer layer, a
flame-retardant reinforced linkage layer and an outer sheath layer from inside to outside, wherein the heat-conducting flame-retardant buffer layer comprises a cross-linked
polyethylene matrix,
boron nitride, aluminum
hydroxide and a
shape memory polymer, and the outer surface of the heat-conducting flame-retardant buffer layer is provided with
interlocking bulges with embedded heat-conducting microtubes; the flame-retardant reinforced linkage layer contains a cross-linked
polyethylene matrix, expanded
graphite and
graphene, and a groove with a flame-retardant elastic piece is formed in the inner surface of the flame-retardant reinforced linkage layer. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly preparing the silver-plated conductor, then respectively preparing the heat-conducting flame-retardant buffer layer and the flame-retardant reinforced linkage layer, then aligning the two
layers, carrying out hot-pressing compounding, carrying out
irradiation crosslinking on the
composite structure, and finally extruding and
coating the outer sheath and carrying out cooling shaping. The product can be used in scenes of
new energy power stations, data centers and the like, and has the advantages of synergism of flame retardance and heat conduction and long-term stability of an interlayer structure.
