Modified plastic cable compounds and auxiliary materials
Low-smoke halogen-free, cross-linked, automotive, TPV and extended polymer compounds — plus the shielding, wrapping and filling materials that complete the cable.
Compounds engineered for cable performance and safety
Our core strength is modified polyolefin cable compounds — low-smoke halogen-free, cross-linked and flame-retardant — backed by automotive, TPV and extended polymer ranges and a full set of cable auxiliary materials. Grades are colourable and formulated to RoHS and REACH requirements.
LSZH / HFFR Compounds
Our LSZH / HFFR compounds are polyolefin-based, halogen-free and flame-retardant, engineered for cables used in enclosed and high-occupancy environments where smoke density and toxicity matter. The range covers thermoset (irradiation cross-linked) grades rated 105–150 °C and thermoplastic grades for sheathing and oxygen-barrier filling, meeting flammability standards from FT2 and VW-1 up to IEC 60332-3 bundled-cable burning.
- Irradiation cross-linked LSZH grades 105 °C / 125 °C / 150 °C
- Thermoplastic LSZH sheathing and oxygen-barrier filling compounds
- Low smoke density, low toxicity index, no corrosive halogen gas
- Flammability from FT2 / VW-1 to IEC 60332-3 Category B
- Colourable to customer-specified shades

Cross-linked polyolefin (XLPO) and polyethylene (XLPE) compounds raise the continuous temperature rating and thermal stability of insulation and jackets. LSZH offers irradiation cross-linked low-smoke grades rated 125 °C and 150 °C, with verified mechanical retention after ageing and consistent volume resistivity — suitable for electronic, building, communication and instrument cables that run hot.
- Irradiation cross-linked 125 °C and 150 °C grades
- High elongation and strong retention after thermal ageing
- Stable volume resistivity and dielectric strength
- RoHS / REACH compliant formulations
- Processable on standard PVC extrusion lines

Compounds engineered for automotive and electric-vehicle cables, where thin-wall insulation, high-temperature endurance, oil and fluid resistance and abrasion resistance are critical. Grades target 125–150 °C service, EV internal high-voltage feeder cables and oil-resistant rolling-stock applications, addressing ISO 6722-1, QC/T 1037-2016 and single-conductor vertical-flame requirements.
- 150 °C thin-wall automotive cable compounds
- Oil-resistant 125 °C EV / rolling-stock grades
- Targets ISO 6722-1, QC/T 1037-2016, IEC 60332-1
- Abrasion, scrape and fluid resistance
- Halogen-free and colourable
TPV / TPE Compounds
Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) and vulcanizate (TPV) compounds deliver flexibility, compression set recovery, abrasion resistance and weatherability for cable over-sheathing and sealing strips. Grades are halogen-free, RoHS and REACH compliant, easy to process and recycle, and available in multiple colours — a soft-touch, durable alternative to traditional rubber.
- TPV cable over-sheathing grades, e.g. Shore 75A
- Excellent compression set recovery and elasticity
- Smooth, abrasion-resistant surface; multi-colour
- Halogen-free, RoHS / REACH compliant, recyclable
- Extrusion processing guidance provided
PVC / TPU / FEP / PFA / PEEK
Beyond our core LSZH and XLPO ranges, LSZH supplies extended polymer categories to cover the full cable build: 80–105 °C PVC for general wiring, TPU for rugged flexible cables, and high-temperature fluoropolymers (FEP, PFA) and engineering plastics (PEEK) for heat- and chemical-resistant specialty cables. Availability and full datasheets for individual grades are confirmed per project.
- PVC insulation and jacket compounds (80 °C / 105 °C)
- TPU for abrasion-resistant flexible cables
- FEP / PFA fluoropolymers for high-temperature cables
- PEEK for extreme thermal and chemical resistance
- Grade availability and TDS confirmed per project
Specific grades within this category — including PVC, TPU and high-temperature fluoropolymers (FEP, PFA) and engineering plastics (PEEK) — are selected and confirmed per project. Send us your temperature class, chemical exposure and application for a recommendation and datasheet.
