Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cable comprising at least one elongated conductive element surrounded by at least one fire-resistant insulating layer.
- safety cables are in particular power transmission cables or low frequency transmission cables, such as control or signaling cables.
- a significant slowdown in the progression of the flames means that much time is saved to evacuate the premises and / or to implement appropriate extinguishing means.
- the cable In the event of a fire, the cable must be able to withstand the fire in order to operate as long as possible and limit its degradation.
- a safety cable must also not be dangerous for its environment, that is to say not to give off toxic and / or opaque fumes when it is subjected to extreme thermal conditions.
- a fire-resistant and halogen-free safety electric cable comprising a set of insulated electrical conductors, said set being surrounded by an outer sheath.
- Each insulated electrical conductor is formed by an electrical conductor surrounded by an insulating layer obtained from a composition comprising a polymeric material and at least one ceramic-forming filler, said insulating layer thus being able to be converted at least superficially into ceramic state at high temperatures corresponding to fire conditions.
- the polymeric material of this single insulating layer is chosen from a polysiloxane, an ethylene copolymer, and their mixture.
- the aim of the present invention is to overcome the drawbacks of the techniques of the prior art by proposing in particular a cable exhibiting excellent fire resistance properties while limiting the risks of mechanical degradation of the electrical conductor (s) which compose it, even at high temperature.
- the cable has very good fire resistance, and in particular makes it possible to significantly reduce or even avoid the formation of flaming droplets during combustion of the cable.
- the mechanical properties of the cable of the invention are also improved thereby allowing it to continue to operate even at high temperatures.
- the cable of the invention advantageously satisfies the conditions of standard NF C 32-070 CR1 (2001) and of standard EN50200 (2006).
- the invention as thus defined also has the advantage of being economical since it makes it possible to significantly limit or even avoid the use of polysiloxane in the insulating layer, while having very good resistance properties. fire.
- the first silicate of the cocktail of fillers can be a phyllosilicate, such as, for example, mica.
- the cocktail of fillers can comprise from 20 to 40% by weight of first silicate relative to the total weight of cocktail of fillers in the polymer composition.
- the second silicate of the cocktail of fillers can be a compound with a high specific surface area, in particular of at least 10 m 2 / g, and preferably of at least 20 m 2 / g.
- the specific surface is conventionally determined by the BET method according to DIN ISO 9277.
- the second silicate of the cocktail of fillers can in particular be of the lamellar type.
- the second silicate can comprise magnesium silicate, such as for example talc.
- the cocktail of fillers can comprise from 20 to 40% by weight of second silicate relative to the total weight of cocktail of fillers in the polymer composition.
- the third silicate of the cocktail of fillers can be a compound comprising aluminum silicate, in particular of the lamellar type.
- the third silicate can be chosen from montmorillonite, bentonite, kaolinite, hectorite, halloysite, and one of their mixtures.
- a third silicate As a preferred example of a third silicate, mention may be made of a nanoclay, which may or may not be functionalized. More particularly, it can be surface treated with cations of the quaternary ammonium type.
- the cocktail of fillers can comprise from 5 to 30% by weight of third silicate relative to the total weight of cocktail of fillers in the polymer composition.
- the oxide of an alkaline earth metal advantageously makes it possible to improve the mechanical properties of cohesion of the insulating layer after combustion under the effect of a flame.
- the oxide of an alkaline earth metal can be of high purity, in order to improve the electrical resistivity of the cable of the invention.
- high purity is understood to mean an oxide of an alkaline earth metal having a purity (by calcination) of at least 96.0%, preferably at least 98.0%, and particularly preferably of at least 99.0%.
- the oxide of an alkaline earth metal of high purity advantageously limits the presence of electrically conductive compound (s), in particular in the form of impurity (s).
- the impurities can contain, for example, heavy metals.
- the oxide of an alkaline earth metal can comprise at most 30 ppm of heavy metals, and preferably less than 10 ppm of heavy metals.
- the oxide of an alkaline earth metal has a melting point of at least 1500 ° C, preferably at least 2000 ° C, and particularly preferably at least 2500 ° C.
- the oxide of an alkaline earth metal can be a magnesium oxide (MgO).
