PROPYLENE-BASED COPOLYMERS IN WIRE AND CABLE APPLICATIONS,

Abstract

The paper describes OLEMER resins, and particularly their use in a new family of electrical grade propylene-based copolymers. These copolymers have sufficiently good low temperature properties to allow their use in a large number of wire and cable applications. These good low temperature properties have been obtained without sacrificing the desirable properties of polypropylene. Pertinent characteristics of the copolymers are compared with those for polypropylene and linear polyethylene. This analysis suggests several wire and cable applications which can use these copolymers to advantage. (Author)
