Applications:
PETROTHENE LR686001 is designed for use as insulation for foam/skin telephone singles, and is a natural, expandable, high density polyethylene compound containing a chemical blowing agent. LR686001 is highly stabilized to ensure OIT retention and thermal stability during processing, oven aging, and in pedestal testing. This product contains a processing aid and a metal deactivator to prevent degradation from copper while the cable is in service. Manufacturing advancements have improved dispersion of the chemical blowing agent in LR686001, resulting in superior cellular structure in the expanded insulation. The improved cellular structure may result in decreased spark failures and increased foaming level.
