Oil-Resistant Cross-linked Cable for Rolling Stock
A capability scenario for oil-resistant, high flame-retardant rolling-stock and industrial cable built on irradiation cross-linked LSZH compounds and a vulcanization / cross-linking line.
Challenge
- Resist oils and fluids without loss of mechanical properties
- Achieve high flame retardancy with low smoke and toxicity
- Maintain flexibility and elongation after cross-linking
- Endure vibration and thermal cycling over a long service life
Materials and machinery, matched
Oil-resistant and high flame-retardant LSZH compounds are extruded and irradiation cross-linked, with the copper conductor pre-heated to preserve elongation. The result is a flexible, oil-resistant cable that targets rolling-stock and industrial requirements, supported by matched cross-linking and twisting equipment.
Materials used
HZD2720-EV for oil resistance and flexibility; HZD2820-G for 150 °C high flame-retardant insulation.
Machinery used
Irradiation / vulcanization line
Cross-linking of insulation and sheath
Double-twisting machine
Conductor and core twisting
