Low Smoke Halogen-Free Flame-Retardant Cable Insulation Granules from China Suppliers and Factory
Product Description
Low smoke and halogen-free materials for cables are a special material widely used in cable manufacturing, which occupies an important position in the cable industry with its unique environmental and safety performance.
Low smoke and halogen-free cable materials refer to materials that do not produce toxic smoke and corrosive gases during cable combustion. This material is commonly used for the insulation and sheath layers of cables to improve their environmental performance and safety.
Environmental friendliness
Low smoke and halogen-free materials do not produce toxic smoke and corrosive gases such as hydrogen halides during combustion, making them harmless to the environment and human health.
Flame retardancy
This material usually contains flame retardants such as magnesium oxide or magnesium hydroxide, which enable the cable to self extinguish or slow down the combustion rate during combustion, improving the fire resistance of the cable.
Corrosion resistance
The insulation layer of low smoke halogen-free materials has good corrosion resistance and can maintain good electrical and mechanical properties in various chemical environments.
Physical properties
This material typically has high tensile strength, good weather resistance, flexibility, and elasticity, which can meet the needs of cables in different usage environments.
Low smoke halogen-free cable materials are widely used in various fields due to their excellent environmental and safety performance, including but not limited to:
