Peroxide XLPE Insulation Compound for

                                                  35KV and below Crosslinked Polyethylene Insulated Power Cable

By introducing domestically advanced equipment and production technologies, Far East New Materials’ insulation material (YJ-35) for 35KV and below crosslinked polyethylene insulated power cable are peroxide XLPE insulation compound. It is produced from low density polyethylene as base material and auxiliary materials, such as cross-linking agent and antioxygen, after being mixed, plasticized and granulated. With easy processing, good application temperature and other advantages, this kind of material can be applicable for the insulating layer of 35KV and below medium and low voltage power cables.
