XLPE wire and cable raw material

XLPE is the abbreviation of cross-linked polyethylene. At present, Angreen's XLPE series products mainly include XLPE, XLPO, etc. Angreen's XLPE series wire and cable materials are environmentally friendly flame retardant materials with added hydroxides and synergists.

1、It is a raw material commonly used in the manufacture of wires and cables in the fields of new energy、photovoltaics、locomotives，etc.

2、It has the characteristics of flame retardancy、UV resistance、mildew resistance、high temperature resistance, etc.

The main features of XLPE materials include

Heat resistance: XLPE's long-term operating temperature can reach 90°C, short-term fault temperature can reach 130°C, and short-circuit temperature can reach 250°C, which is suitable for high temperature environments.

Electrical properties: It has high dielectric strength and low dielectric loss, can effectively prevent current leakage, and ensure the safe and stable operation of electrical equipment.

Chemical stability: It has good resistance to acids, alkalis and chemicals, and is suitable for harsh environments.

Mechanical properties: It has high tensile strength and impact resistance, and can resist the influence of external forces.

Thermal properties: Lower thermal conductivity and thermal expansion coefficient, reducing heat loss and thermal stress.

Application areas

XLPE materials are widely used in the power industry and electrical equipment fields, especially in the following aspects:

Power cables: used for the insulation layer of high-voltage cables due to their excellent heat resistance and electrical properties.

Electrical equipment: used to manufacture various high-temperature power equipment, such as transformers, motors, etc.

Automotive industry: used for automotive wiring harnesses and battery cables due to their high temperature resistance and chemical corrosion resistance.

The preparation process of XLPE usually includes

Raw material selection: Select high-quality polyethylene resin and cross-linking agent.

Mixed extrusion: Ensure the uniformity of the material through high temperature and high pressure extrusion molding.

Vulcanization cross-linking: Improve the insulation and mechanical properties of the material through heat treatment or chemical treatment.
