Axeleron FO 8864 BK CPD
About this Product
AXELERON FO 8864 BK CPD is a high molecular weight, linear medium-density polyethylene black compound ("CPD") developed for fiber optic and conventional metallic conductor LV cable jacketing applications. The compound has very good processability and provides a tough cable jacket. AXELERON FO 8864 BK CPD also provides excellent resistance to environmental stress cracking and to weathering and thermal-oxidative degradation.
AXELERON FO 8864 BK CPD provides excellent low temperature optic signal attenuation performance in fiber optic cable jacketing applications. The compound combines reduced extrusion shrink-back stress with excellent tensile modulus properties. This minimizes the contractive forces exerted by the cable jacket on the optic cable core during temperature cycling.
