Communication cables - Part 2-25: Common design rules and construction - Polypropylene insulation compounds

This European Standard gives specific requirements for PP compounds to be used for multi-element metallic data cables for indoor application. Type 1 is typically a copolymer with better low temperature properties. Type 2 is typically a homopolymer with superior hardness giving better crush resistance. Using compound and type test data as outlined in this standard, the compound supplier will have sufficient data to demonstrate compliance and warrant that the material is suitable for the specified application.

Komunikacijski kabli - 2-25. del: Skupna pravila načrtovanja in konstrukcija - Polipropilenske izolacijske zmesi

Ta evropski standard določa posebne zahteve za zmesi PP, ki se uporabljajo za večelementne kovinske podatkovne kable za notranjo uporabo. Tip 1 je običajno kopolimer z boljšimi lastnostmi pri nizkih temperaturah. Tip 2 je običajno homopolimer z boljšo trdoto, kar mu zagotavlja boljšo odpornost proti drobljenju. Z uporabo podatkov o zmesi in tipskem preskušanju, kot je opisano v tem standardu, bo imel dobavitelj zmesi dovolj podatkov, da dokaže skladnost in jamči, da je material ustrezen za opredeljeno uporabo.
