PEXIDAN® HF SX738 pre-grafted base is mixed with a crosslinking catalyst masterbatch CM401 in the ratio 95:5. Crosslinking is obtained by exposure to moist or hot water immersion only. This system is designed specifically for the production, by extrusion, of flame retardant halogen free heat shrinkable tubing. The two component system SX738:CM401 combines ease of processing with the ability to achieve a degree of crosslinking compatible with good expansion and contraction.
