Borealis Borcell™ HE1102 High Density Polyethylene Compound for Gas Injection of Cellular Communication Cable Insulation (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE); High Density (HDPE)
Material Notes:	Borcell HE1102 is a high density polyethylene. A nucleating agent is incorporated for a uniform and closed cell structure. The components in the formulation are selected to give the lowest possible dielectric loss. Borcell HE1102 HDPE is intended for the insulation of communication cables using a gas-injection foaming process. Borcell HE1102 is suitable for thick walled coax cables, minicoax cables and telephone signals. With proper processing conditions it is possible to produce coax cables with an expansion degree of 75%. Information provided by the Manufacturer.
