Abstract

This invention provides a foam barrier which prevents substantial migration of plasticizer from a plasticized polymeric article, such as a PVC cable jacket, into a gel sealing material in contact with the article and prevents substantial migration of oil from the gel material into the article while not significantly interfering with the sealing contact between the gel material and the surface of the article.

Description

BARRIER MATERIAL FOR GEL SEALANT-CABLE JACKET INTERFACE
Field of the Invention
This invention relates to the use of gel sealing materials on an exterior surface of plasticized polymeric articles, such as PVC cable jackets.
Background of the Invention
Gel materials have been used in splice cases for sealing the external surface of cable jackets to prevent moisture and other environmental elements from entering the splice case. For exa ple, gel seals are used where a cable enters or exits a splice case closure. Such a gel seal and splice case closure is disclosed in copending application U.S. serial no. 698,643 filed February 6, 1985, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. The gel materials useful in forming such seals are described in U.S. patents 4,600,261 to Debbaut; 4,634,207 to Debbaut; 4,595,635 to Dubrow et al . , and copending applications U.S. serial no. 507,433 filed June 26, 1983, U.S. serial no. 730,697 filed May 2, 1985, U.S. serial no. 801,018 filed Nov. 22, 1985, and U.K. serial no. 8617559 filed July 18, 1986, the disclosures of which patents and applications are incorporated herein by reference.
The gel materials useful in sealing cable jackets and other plasticized polymeric articles have a cone penetration value from about 50 to about 350 (mm-1) and an ultimate elongation of at least aoout 100%, which cone penetration o and ultimate elongation are determined according to standard ASTM tests D217 and D638, respectively, as set forth in the above referenced patents and applications incorporated herein by reference. These gel materials in general comprise a polymeric component which constitutes up to' about 50% of the gel and an oil material -which is at least about 50% of the gel by weight, such as- ineral oil, hydrocarbon oil, silicone oil and the like, depending on the polymeric structure present in the gel material. Preferably these gel materials contain at least about 70% oil and up to about 30% polymer and in many cases contain more than 80% oil and less than about 20% polymer.
In some instances when these gel materials are used on the surfaces of plasticized polymeric articles such as the plastic jackets on telecommunication cables, which are PVC jackets, it has been observed that either the plasticizer present in the plastic article migrates into the gel or the oil component of the gel migrates into the plastic article, or in some instances both occur. Such migration causes detrimental changes in properties of the polymeric article and could be- revented by placing an impervious film between the gel material and the polymeric article, such as an alu¬ minum foil or other impervious material which would prevent the oils in the gels and the plastiσizers in the plastic articles from migrating. However, when such a layer is interposed between the gel and the surface of the plastic article, the advantages of using the gel sealing material are lost, for example conformance of the gel and flexibility are impaired using such simple films. The gel sealing material is used because it forms a^superior seal to the surface of the polymeric article, such as a cable jacket, because of the softness, conformability and other surface properties of the gel which forms the superior seal to pre- vent water and other environmental contaminants from entering a splice case or other closure through the inter¬ face between the gel seal and the polymeric article.
Therefore, it is an object of this invention to select a barrier material which prevents the migration of the oil from the gel and the migration of the plasticizer from the polymeric article, but which allows the beneficial physical properties of a gel to be retained.
Summary of the Invention
In one aspect this invention provides an assembly comprising a plasticized polymeric article, a gel material adjacent a surface of said polymeric article and a foam barrier disposed as a layer between said article and said gel material for substantially preventing migration of plasticizer from said article into said gel material and preferably also substantially preventing migration of oil from said gel material.
In another aspect this invention provides a shaped gel article for sealing against a surface of a plasticized poly¬ meric article and having disposed on a surface of the shaped gel article intended for sealing said surface of the poly¬ meric article a foam barrier disposed as a layer on the sur¬ face of the shaped gel article for substantially preventing migration of plasticizer from said article into said gel material and preferably also substantially preventing migra¬ tion of oil from the gel material.
In another aspect this invention provides a method of substantially preventing migration of plasticizer from a plasticized polymeric article and preferably also substan¬ tially preventing migration of oil from a gel material adja¬ cent said polymeric article, which comprises interposing between the article and the gel material a foam barrier which substantially prevents such migration of plasticizer and preferably such migration of oil.
The barrier material useful in this invention must be a foam (particularly a closed cell foam, examples of which are given below) so that it does not prevent the gel material from sealing to the surface of the polymeric article. However, it must be capable of preventing the migration of plasticizer from the polymeric article into the gel or into itself and prevent the migration of oil from the gel into the polymeric article at least to the extent that after a six-day, 80°C contact as described below the needle hardness of the polymeric article decreases no more than about 60%, preferably no more than about 50%, and most preferably no more than about 35%. The barrier materials are preferably nitrile foams or polyester foams.
In order to .illustrate the barrier materials useful in the assembly, combination and method of this invention, the following materials shown in Table 1 were placed between a Raychem "K-Gel" material prepared with accordance with copending application U.S. serial no. 801,018 filed Nov. 22, 1985, formed into the end piece of a splice closure for a telephone cable in accordance with copending application U.S. serial no. 698,643 filed Feb. 6, 1985. The gel end pieces and the splice closure were placed around an AT&T 25 pair inside telephone cable having a PVC installation exter- nal jacket. Each sample was aged six days at 80°C then the needle hardness of the PVC jacJcet on the cable was measured,
