Application

COMPOUND O-31/O-51 is used in combination with a crosslinking catalyst of the Compound O-51 brand in a ratio of 95: 5 for applying insulation of SIW by extrusion. Cable insulation obtained from Compound O-31 and Compound O-51 materials complies with the requirements of GOST R 53769-2010 and TU 16.K71-463-2014.

Technical Details & Test Data

Recycling Recommendations

COMPOUND O-31 / O-51. Before processing, the material must be dried for 2-3 hours at 90-100 ° C. Compound O-31 is processed by extrusion together with Compound O-51 in a ratio of 95: 5, which is a crosslinking catalyst. The material is processable in the range from 150 to 220 ° C.

Crosslinking recommendations

The crosslinking time in a water bath with a temperature of 80 ° C is calculated taking into account the fact that water penetrates the thickness of the insulation on one side. For the calculation use the table data:
