| Visico LE0542 is a silane crosslinkable black polyethylene compound, specially designed for semiconductive conductor screen and bonded insulation screen of power cables. It is used for co-extrusion with LDPE silane crosslinkable insulation materials. Applications: Visico LE0542 is intended for semiconductive screen in silane crosslinkable medium voltage (MV) AC cables with rated voltages up to 36 kV (Um = 42 kV). It can be used as conductor and insulation screen for bonded cable constructions and as conductor screen for strippable cable constructions. The values are voltages between phases as defined in IEC 60183. Specifications: Visico LE0542 is expected to meet the applicable requirements included in the below mentioned standards provided it is processed using sound material handling, extrusion and crosslinking practices as well as appropriate testing procedures. This applies up to the maximum recommended voltage level indicated in "Applications" section above since some standards cover wider voltage ranges. IEC 60502-2; Cenelec HD 620 S2 (Part 1) Special Features: Visico LE0542 is a ready-to-use semiconductive compound, which requires no further addition of a catalyst masterbatch. Visico LE0542 crosslinks via the migration of catalyst from its co-extrusion with silane insulation layer. The excellent distribution of carbon black and additives in Visico LE0542 would result in a smooth semiconductive screen. Information provided by Borealis AG |
