With the promotion and spread of the concept of green environmental protection in the world, the concept of environmental protection is gradually infiltrating into all walks of life. With the gradual use of environmental protection products and deep roots, the wire and cable industry has also begun to pay attention to the development and promotion of environmental protection cables.
China also attaches great importance to this field. The relevant laws and regulations require that non-environmental protection cables be strictly prohibited during the construction of major projects.
So what is a green cable, and what are its characteristics?
1, high flame retardancy
The environmental protection cable can completely guarantee the building requirements that require high fire protection. In case of fire, the environmental protection cable can not only not be easy to burn, but also can prevent the spread of flames and the expansion of disaster after combustion.
2, halogen-free
The use of green insulating layer, sheath and special oxygen barrier material not only makes the environmental protection cable have good electrical performance, physical and mechanical properties, but also guarantees that the product does not contain halogen, and solves the “secondary pollution†formed when it is burned. To avoid the occurrence of cancer-causing "dioxin" substances when traditional PVC wires are burned.
3, low toxin
The insulation and sheathing of environmental protection cables does not contain heavy metals, such as lead and cadmium, which are harmful to the human body. They do not cause pollution to the soil or water sources during the use and disposal of environmental protection cables. After harsh toxicity experiments, the rats were safe under the specified experimental conditions.
4, no corrosion gas
The use of new type of special coating material that does not pollute the environment will not produce toxic gases such as HCL during the production, use, and combustion of environmental protection cables, and will result in very little acid gas emissions, less damage to personnel, equipment and equipment, and more environmental protection features. .
5, high light transmittance
The smoke produced when the environmental protection cable is burned is extremely thin, which is conducive to the evacuation of personnel and the execution of fire-fighting work. In general, the transmittance of environmental protection cable products is greater than 40%, which is much higher than the standard of less than 20% of the light transmission rate of traditional flame-retardant cable cables.
