Abstract :
Wire and cables are demanded to have not only high reliability in electrical and mechanical properties, but also low disaster characteristics from the viewpoint of fire safety. For this purpose, the authors have supplied low smoke, halogen free, flame retardant cables called “Clean Cable” since 1983. From the viewpoint of environmental protection, they have developed a new type of halogen free recyclable cable with low toxic gas emission. Their new recyclable cable´s material is low density (d=1.1), halogen free and flame retardant material. By means of density difference, separation of the new material and PVC can be carried out easily with water flow on waste treatment
