The invention provides a high-
flame-retardant, low-
smoke and
halogen-free cable material and a preparation method thereof. The material is prepared from the following
raw material by weight parts: 60-67 parts of low-density
polyethylene, 3-4 parts of
magnesium hydroxide, 25-28 parts of
montmorillonite, 2-3 parts of
zinc borate, 3-4 parts of a
silane coupling agent KH 550, 1-2 parts of
ferriferrous oxide, 3-4 parts of
tantalum boride, 1-2 parts of
tantalum diboride, 1-2 parts of tert-butyl
benzoic acid, 2-3 parts of
triphenyl phosphate, 2-3 parts of
ferrocene, 2-3 parts of gamma-methacryloxy propyl trimethoxy
silane, 4-6 parts of
polyvinyl acetate, 2-3 parts of
dibutyltin dilaurate, 1-2 parts of
cyanuric acid zinc, 1-2 parts of
zinc oxide, 3-4 parts of
soybean oil, 16-18 parts of
aluminium hydroxide, 25-29 parts of attapulgite, 1-2 parts of a
promoter DTDM, 1-2 parts of a
antioxidant MB, 1-2 parts of an anti-scorching agent CTP, 12-14 parts of
carbon black N220, 8-10 parts of
carbon black N 660 and 6-8 parts of modified diatomite. According to the invention, the
zinc borate and the
aluminium hydroxide are combined as the
flame retardant, thereby improving performances of
flame retardation. The method is simple in technology and convenient to produce; the produced cable materials are high in
oxygen index, that is, being higher than 40, and excellent in
fire resistance. A vertical flame class experiment of the material reaches a supreme grade, that is, FV-0 grade, and a
smoke density of the material is lower than that of other similar products.
