Faster Curing Ethylene-Silane Copolymer for Moisture-Cured Insulation & Jackets
by Bharat Chaudhary, Dow
Dow’s SI-LINK™ DFDF-5451 NT Faster Curing Ethylene-Silane Copolymer is a new solution for moisture-cured insulation and jackets for use in low-voltage and medium-voltage electrical cables. Specifically, it has a breakthrough contribution of attributes that create value for manufacturers.
Speed: Cure speed 3 to 40 times faster than that of incumbent ethylene-silane copolymers at ambient conditions, depending on the formulation and cable construction, similar to or better than that of Sioplas PE (silane grafted polyethylene).
