HZD2820-G
High flame-retardant 150 °C low-smoke halogen-free cable compound
Overview
HZD2820-G is a high flame-retardant, 150 °C low-smoke halogen-free irradiation cross-linked cable compound. Polyolefin-based with an inorganic flame-retardant system and a high oxygen index, it lets well-designed cables pass the UL VW-1 test as insulation or sheath — for high-temperature electronic wire and metro / subway cable insulation.
Key features
- High flame retardancy — passes UL VW-1 in proper designs
- 150 °C low-smoke halogen-free, cross-linked
- High oxygen index (42%), low smoke and toxicity
- Strong tensile retention after high-temperature ageing
- Colourable for insulation and sheathing
