摘要:
This invention relates to a flame-retardant composition useful for preparing a coated automotive wire with high scrape abrasion resistance and flexibility. The present invention is a halogen-free, flame-retardant composition made from or containing an ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer, a halogen-free inorganic flame retardant, a coupling agent for coupling the inorganic flame retardant to the copolymer, and a processing aid.

Plastic optical fibers or plastic optical fiber cores with good high temperature resistance to optical attenuation loss are prepared from a cyclic block copolymer characterized by a: A. Weight ratio of hydrogenated conjugated diene polymer block to hydrogenated vinyl aromatic polymer block of 35:65 to 10:90; B. Number average molecular weight (Mn) of from 40,000 to 150,000, grams per mole (g/mol); and C. Hydrogenation level such that each hydrogenated vinyl aromatic polymer block and each hydrogenated conjugated diene polymer block has a hydrogenation level of at least 95 percent.

Compositions including a polymer, a primary antioxidant, a secondary antioxidant, and a metal deactivator selected from at least one of 2,2′-oxamido bis[ethyl 3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate] and oxalyl bis(benzylidenehydrazide), are disclosed. The compositions can also include a light stabilizer. The compositions can be used to manufacture insulations for wire and cable. The compositions have improved long-term heat aging and also retain their color when exposed to heat. A method of making an insulation for a conductor, such as a wire or a cable, made from a composition is also provided.
摘要:
The present invention is a crosslinked automotive wire comprising a metal conductor, a flame retardant insulation layer surrounding the metal conductor, and optionally, a wire jacket surrounding the insulation layer. The automotive wire passes the specifications of one or more several automotive cable testing protocols: (a) SAE J-1128, (b) ISO-6722, (c) LV 112, (d) Chrysler MS-8288, and (e) Renault 36-36-05-009/-L. In particular, the flame retardant insulation layer is prepared from a crosslinkable thermoplastic polymer and a metal carbonate. The flame retardant composition for making the insulation layer demonstrates economic and processing improvements over conventional solutions. The present invention is also a method for preparing a low tension primary automotive wire and the automotive wire made therefrom.

摘要:
Compositions useful as coatings for automobile power cables comprise a combination of raoisiure-crosslinkabk, si lane-grafted ethylene polymers in combination with a non-halogenated flame retardant. The ethylene polymers are a combination of at least one ethylene polymer with a density of 0.910 g/cc or greater and at least one ethylene polymer with a density less than 0.910 g/cc. The non-halogenated flame retardant is typically liydrated metallic filler, e.g., aluminum trihydrate. These compositions meet SAE J-1128 and DaimlerChrysler MS-8288 specifications, exhibit good shelf-life stability, and are useful in other automotive cable applications, such as ISO-6722.
