BUTYL INSULATION

Abstract

The paper presents information on butyl rubber for the wire and cable industry, and provides facts and observations which will serve as a base for development of sound compounds for the industry's varied interests. The information is grouped under properties desired in insulation: processing to give smooth non-swollen extrusions, ozone resistance and ways to obtain the optimum in resistance to cracking, heat aging, electrical properties and their stability in water, dielectric strength, a comparison of sulfur with quinoid cures, and a section on jacketing.
