AXELERON™ CS L-3364 NT CPD is a high-molecular weight, high-density polyethylene insulation compound ("CPD") specifically formulated to provide excellent oxidative stability, toughness, and abrasion resistance. It provides superior long term aging performance, especially in the more demanding grease-filled cable applications while providing excellent environmental and thermal stress-cracking resistance. In addition, AXELERON™ CS L-3364 NT CPD provides excellent processibility for high-speed wire insulating extrusion processes.
AXELERON™ CS L-3364 NT CPD provides excellent performance across the full range of telephone insulation applications, including aircore and grease-filled cable designs in both buried and aerial environments AXELERON™ CS L-3364 NT CPD is optimized to meet rigorous Telcordia (formerly Bellcore) age testing requirements, as well as all major international age testing standards and specifications for both solid and foam/skin insulation use. There is also considerable AXELERON™ CS L-3364 NT CPD use in a wide variety of other twisted pair, optic, coaxial and power cable designs.
