Are pp-based power cable insulation materials environmentally friendly?

Consequently, achieving a synergistic balance of room-temperature mechanical flexibility, high-temperature mechanical integrity and high-temperature electrical properties represents a critical challenge in the development of PP-based environmentally friendly power cable insulation materials.

Why do we need insulation materials for power cables?

Thus, developing high-performance, environmentally friendly insulation materials for power cables is of great importance to meet the demands of high-capacity cable power transmission and align with the environmental goals of modern power systems.

Why are cable cables buried underground?

Cables, typically buried underground, can successfully avoid the adverse effects of harsh environments and natural disasters, such as lightning, snowstorms, typhoons and sandstorms.

Is XLPE a good insulation material for power cables?

Currently, crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) is the primary insulation material for power cables. XLPE, a thermosetting material with a three-dimensional network structure, offers advantages such as high-temperature resistance and excellent insulating properties. However, XLPE also presents notable drawbacks.

Which insulation material is used for power cables?

The performance of power cables in terms of operating voltage, transmission capacity and reliability is directly influenced by the insulation materials used. Currently, crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) is the primary insulation material for power cables.
