Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce the generability of water content or a secondary cracked product of dicmilperoxide to be used as a cross linking agent by adding the specified amount of an organic peroxide, isocyanic ester and an antioxidant to polyethylene. CONSTITUTION:An organic peroxide of 0.5-3 part/hundred resin (phr), isocyanic ester (RN=C=O) of 0.5-2.0phr and an antioxidant of 0.1-3phr are added to polyethylene. As for the organic peroxide, dicmilperoxide or a cross linking agent, 2,5-di (t-butylperoxyine) hexene-3, or the like suded, and a radical of the isocyanic ester is selected from CH3, C2H5, iso-C3H7, iso-C4H9, C6H5, alpha-C10H7, beta-C10H7. And, as for the antioxidant, 4,4'-thiobis (3-methyl-6-t-butyl phenol or the like) are used.

In this composition, the addition of isocyanate ester is C
This is to suppress the generation of water due to decomposition of A, and the reason why the amount added is 0.5 to 2.0 phr in the range of 0.5 to 3.0 phr of organic peroxide is as follows. Depends on the reason.

That is, the organic peroxide is 0.5 to 3. Even within the range of Qphr, if the isocyanate ester exceeds 2.0 phr, scorch (early vulcanization) will occur during extrusion of the insulator, and if Q is less than 5 phr, sufficient moisture suppression effect cannot be obtained. It is.

Conversely, isocyanate ester is 0.5 to 2. 0ph
Even within the r range, if the organic peroxide content is less than 0.5 phr, the crosslinking time becomes too long to be practical, and if the organic peroxide content exceeds 3.0 phr, too much water will be generated. This is because the effect of adding isocyanate ester cannot be obtained. The isocyanate ester (RN=C=O) used here has an R group of CH
