| Latest cabling innovations from Borealis Borealis will showcase state-of-the-art polyolefin compounds solutions to visitors of Wire 2006, from April 24-28, 2006 in Düsseldorf, Germany. The latest developments to the Supercure product range and Visico/Ambicat catalyst system will be presented on the stand, alongside the whole spectrum of Borealis wire and cable products. Supercure XLPE cable insulation is a high productivity solution, enabling cable manufacturers to achieve increased throughput without the need for new investments. The production time can be reduced by as much as 20%. The concept results in lower production costs while maintaining today’s high level of cable quality. The Visico/Ambicat copolymer and tin free catalyst system for low voltage cable insulation requires no separate curing operation and crosslinking takes place in a fraction of the time required by other materials. The simplified cable production process with Visico/Ambicat significantly reduces costs and saves energy. Borcell cellular materials for radio frequency cables results in a lower signal attenuation than has been possible with previous materials. This insulation concept is based on Borcell HE1123 high density polyethylene and Borcell LE1120 low density polyethylene. These two compounds give excellent foaming in the gas injection extrusion process and offer a broad operating window enabling use in a variety of radio frequency cable designs. Borealis is a provider of polyolefin compounds for the global wire and cable industry. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
