SX528

Technical Datasheet | Supplied by AEI Compounds

SX528 by AEI Compounds is a semi-conducting, silane crosslinkable polyethylene (XLPE) grade. Possesses easily-strippable properties. SX528 is applied to hot insulation to extrude simultaneously with the insulation through a multi-layer (2 or 3 layer) extruder head. Crosslinking occurs in the presence of moisture by migration of catalyst from the adjacent core insulation layer. SX528 is used in conjunction with sipolas insulation material for medium voltage cable screening application.
