Cable Compounds

Application Areas

  • Weather-Resistant Cable Compounds

    Silane treatment provides enhanced hydrolytic stability and weatherability for outdoor and high-humidity applications, extending cable service life.

  • Communication & Data Cables

    Silanes improve interfacial bonding and moisture resistance of polyolefin compounds, ensuring stable, low-loss high-speed signal transmission.

  • Flame-Retardant Cable Jackets

    In halogen-free systems with ATH and MDH, silanes enhance dispersion and bonding of flame retardants, improving flame resistance and mechanical strength.

  • Power Cable Insulation

    Silane coupling agents improve compatibility of PE and XLPE with inorganic fillers, enhancing dielectric strength and thermal lifetime of power cables.

Main Performance Improvements

  • Processing Performance

    Silanes reduce system viscosity and improve melt flow, enhancing extrusion and pelletizing efficiency of cable compounds.

  • Mechanical Strength & Flexibility

    Increases tensile strength and toughness, ensuring resistance to cracking during bending and installation.

  • Thermal Stability & Aging Resistance

    Strengthens polymer–filler interfaces, enabling stable performance under high temperatures and long-term service.

  • Improved Flame Retardancy

    Enhances compatibility and dispersion of flame retardants, reducing heat release and smoke generation under fire conditions.

  • Enhanced Insulation

    Silanes chemically bond with filler surfaces, minimizing interfacial defects and improving dielectric strength and electrical reliability.
