Processing Parameters:
LSZH range of compounds is designed to perform on extruder with Low compression ratio screws meant for PE extrusion. However, it can also be
used on PVC extruder with limitation on output. The recommended temperature for extruding LSZH compound is in the range of 130°C to 150°C
for barrel and 150°C for cross head and 165°C for die. Extra caution must be exerted to see that the processing temperature does not exceed
170°C which will result in degradation material. Pre-drying of the compound is recommended at 70°C for 2 hours to obtain smooth processing of
the cable and attaining good surface finish on the cable.
Color Options:
It is recommended to use RoHS compliant masterbatch for attaining the desired color for the cables which conforms to RAL color standards. We
can also supply mass colored compound as per the RAL Shade (Natural/Black). We recommend to use Black compounded product for demanding
outdoor application.
Transport Requirement Keep away from the sunshine, rain & soaking during
transport, as well as handle gently while carrying.
Technical Assistance:
Our technical team will be available for assistance on request.
RoHS Compliance:
LSZH 4001 Compound is RoHS and REACH Compliance.
