Borealis launches Borcell™ insulating compounds for enhanced transmission in communication cables

Borealis' new Borcell PE cellular compounds are optimised to generate uniform and evenly distributed cells, which enhances transmission properties. In addition, improved flow properties, melt elasticity and purity ensure the cable producer superior processing allowing high line speeds in combination with minimised capacitance variations. To meet the growing need for enhanced electrical properties in telephone, TV and data cables Borealis, the leading supplier of polyethylene to the global wire and cable industry, has further developed its cellular insulation compounds. Borcell is an extensive range of chemically and physically blown polyethylene (PE) compounds offering improved transmission properties and processability.

New Borealis compound, Supercure™ LS4201, improves productivity

BorealisTo help satisfy the growing demand for MV, HV and EHV underground cable systems for electric energy transmission, Borealis, the leading supplier of polyethylene to the wire and cable industry, has developed Supercure LS4201. The new XLPE compound can deliver significant increases in cable production speed without compromising either quality or performance.
