The invention relates to an oil-resistant and
corrosion-resistant cable sheath material for a
robot as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The oil-resistant and
corrosion-resistant cable sheath material is particularly suitable for harsh environments such as
underwater robots. According to the cable material, ultra-high molecular weight
polypropylene,
nitrile rubber, a
fluorine-containing
elastomer, a compatilizer, a filler and the like are used as main raw materials, and the ratio and performance of all the components are optimized, so that the oil resistance, acid and alkali
corrosion resistance, salt penetration resistance and
wear resistance of the cable material are remarkably improved, and meanwhile, the mechanical properties such as high tensile strength and elongation at break are maintained. According to the invention, the EPDM-g-MAH, the EPDM-g-MMA or the EPDM-g-GMA is selected as the compatilizer, so that the problem of compatibility between the
polypropylene and the
nitrile rubber is effectively solved. In addition,
montmorillonite and talcum
powder in a specific particle size range are adopted as a filler combination, so that the performance of the cable material is further optimized. The cable sheath material has remarkable advantages in the aspects of oil resistance, corrosion resistance,
salt resistance and the like, the stability of the cable sheath material in severe environments is improved, and the cable sheath material is suitable for harsh environments such as
underwater robots.
