Although this conventional fire-resistant wire exhibits sufficient characteristics under open combustion conditions such as being directly exposed to flame, its fire-resistance performance deteriorates under closed system conditions such as inside a conduit, as shown in Figure 1. The decrease was significant. When the inventors investigated the cause of this problem, they found that the temperature inside the conduit slowly rises and it becomes a steam-baked state, so first the polyvinyl chloride that is the sheath material decomposes, and at the same time, the polyvinyl chloride that is the insulating layer becomes molten, hydrogen chloride gas, which is a thermal decomposition product of polyvinyl chloride, dissolves in the molten polyethylene, and the molten polyethylene containing hydrogen chloride penetrates the glass mica tape layer and carbonizes, resulting in It was found that the insulation resistance of the fireproof layer decreased significantly, degrading its performance.

As a result of intensive research to solve this problem, the inventors of the present invention found that if the insulating layer is cross-linked, it will maintain its shape even when heated above its melting point until thermal decomposition begins. It has been found that the molten material does not penetrate into the wafer, and the phenomenon of a significant drop in insulation resistance can be prevented.

However, it has been found that the commonly used chemical crosslinking method using high-pressure steam at 180°C or higher is undesirable because it causes significant damage to the fireproof layer and furthermore, residual moisture during crosslinking has a negative effect on fireproof performance.

In this case, general-purpose talc is used as an inorganic filler.
Clay, calcium carbonate, etc. may be used, but
In particular, the use of aluminum hydroxide or magnesium carbonate is particularly effective because of their good flame retardancy and insulation properties. The amount of the inorganic filler is preferably an amount that does not reduce the physical properties of polyethylene, and is suitably 15 to 40 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the base polymer.
When adding more than that, it is preferable to use a blend of polyethylene with ethylene-propylene copolymer or ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.
