Equistar Petrothene® GA808093 Linear Low Density Polyethylene
Subcategory: Polyethylene; Thermoplastic; LDPE; Equistar Wire and Cable Grade
Key Words: LLDPE; Telecom/ Telecommunications; Insulation
Material Notes: Applications PETROTHENE GA 808-093 is a broad molecular weight, linear low density polyethylene resin designed for use as a wire and cable insulation. An antioxidant package is added to ensure thermal stability during processing. The resin also contains a metal deactivator to prevent degradation from copper while the cable is in service.
Processing Techniques GA 808-093, like other thermoplastic polyolefin compounds, can be extruded as wire and cable insulation using a conventional extruder. Below are suggested extrusion conditions for GA 808-093. These conditions are intended as general guidelines only and are not optimum values, since manufacturing conditions, such as extruder type and size have an effect on the processing of thermoplastic resins.
