Borealis LE6022 Polyethylene Modified Jacketing Compound
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); Low Density (LDPE); Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), Wire/Cable Grade
Material Notes:	LE6022 is a black low density copolymer modified polyethylene compound. It is characterized by excellent crack resistance and mechanical properties and low temperature performance in combination with good extrudability. LE6022 contains 2,5% well dispersed furnace black of nominal particle size less than 25 nanometers in order to ensure excellent weathering resistance. Applications: LE6022 is designed for jacketing of communication cables. Specifications: ASTM D1248 Type I, Class C, Category 5, Grade E5, J3, W2-4; BS 6234: Type 03C, TS1; DIN VDE 0207 Type 2YM2; EN 50290-2-24; HD 620 S1, Part 1, table 4B, DMP 17; IEC 60708; IEC 60840, Type ST3; ISO 1872-PE, KCHL, 18-D003; and IEC 60502, Part 2, Type ST3.
