Definitions
- This disclosure relates to communication wires.
- Patent Documents 1 and 2 disclose a twisted pair wire in which a pair of insulated wires made of a conductor and an insulating coating covering the outer periphery of the conductor are twisted together, A communication wire having a sheath made of an insulating material covering the outer periphery of a twisted pair wire is disclosed.
- Patent Documents 1 and 2 mainly deal with a form called a loose jacket type in which a gap is provided between a sheath and an insulated wire that constitutes a twisted pair wire.
- a communication wire having a sheath around the outer periphery of a signal wire including a plurality of insulated wires there is a loose jacket type wire having a gap between the sheath and the signal wire.
- a solid type in which substantially no gap is provided between the sheath and the communication wire, and the material of the sheath is brought into close contact with the surface of the insulated wire that constitutes the signal wire.
- the loose-jacket type and the solid-type have their own advantages, but the major advantage of the solid-type sheathed communication wire is that the signal line is held down from the outside by the sheath. It is possible to suppress relative position deviation such as loosening of the twisted structure.
- predetermined communication characteristics can be stably obtained by maintaining a predetermined relative arrangement of the multiple wires.
- a pair of insulated wires maintains a symmetrical positional relationship, so that the electromagnetic fields generated in each insulated wire cancel each other out, and the influence of electromagnetic noise from the outside can be reduced.
- the plurality of insulated wires that make up the signal line are held down by the sheath, thereby firmly maintaining the relative arrangement.
- the deviated relative arrangement is stably maintained as it is. , and it becomes difficult to obtain a predetermined communication characteristic.
- the twisted pair structure reduces the noise reduction effect.
- the solid sheath is formed by extrusion molding, a large pressure is applied to the insulated wire constituting the signal line by the molten resin composition. Then, due to the influence of heat and resin pressure, the insulated wires may be displaced or deformed relative to each other, and the insulated wires may be fixed by the sheath in this state.
- a communication wire having a solid sheath on the outer periphery of a signal wire including a plurality of insulated wires and when extruding the sheath, the insulated wire is affected by the influence of the molten resin composition.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a communication wire that is less likely to be misaligned or deformed.
- a communication wire includes a signal wire including a plurality of insulated wires each having a conductor and an insulating coating covering the outer circumference of the conductor, and a solid sheath covering the outer circumference of the signal wire.
- the composition constituting the sheath has a melt flow rate of 0.8 g/10 minutes or more and 2.1 g/10 minutes or less measured under a load of 2.16 kg at 230°C.
- a communication wire according to the present disclosure is a communication wire having a solid sheath on the outer periphery of a signal wire including a plurality of insulated wires, and when the sheath is extruded, the melted resin composition causes , the insulated wire is less likely to be displaced or deformed relative to the communication wire.
- FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing the configuration of a communication wire according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the relationship between polymer temperature and fluidity. A solid line indicates a low melting point, and a dashed line indicates a high melting point.
- FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view for explaining the definition of the degree of deformation of a core wire for a communication wire in which the deformation of the insulation coating has increased.
- FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view for explaining the definition of the degree of filling of a communication wire with a low filling property of the sheath.
- FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view for explaining the definition of the degree of heat deformation of a communication wire in which the sheath is greatly deformed by heat.
- a communication wire includes a signal wire including a plurality of insulated wires each having a conductor and an insulating coating covering the outer circumference of the conductor, and a solid sheath covering the outer circumference of the signal wire.
- the composition constituting the sheath has a melt flow rate of 0.8 g/10 minutes or more and 2.1 g/10 minutes or less measured under a load of 2.16 kg at 230°C.
- the sheath has a solid structure, and the material constituting the sheath is in close contact with the surface of the insulated wire that constitutes the signal line. has a melt flow rate of 0.8 g/10 minutes or more. Therefore, when the sheath is formed by extrusion molding, the area around the insulated wire is easily filled with the composition forming the sheath, and the pressure applied to the insulated wire can be reduced. As a result, the insulated wire is less likely to change in relative position or deform due to pressure during extrusion. In addition, since the composition that constitutes the sheath has high fluidity, the composition is likely to be densely filled at various locations around the signal wire, including the valleys between the plurality of insulated wires.
- the sheath firmly holds down the insulated wire in a state where the relative position is not changed or deformed, and it is easy to stably maintain the state where the relative position is not changed or deformed. As a result, it is possible to stably maintain communication characteristics obtained by a plurality of insulated wires having a predetermined relative arrangement. Furthermore, since the melt flow rate of the composition constituting the sheath is suppressed to 2.1 g/10 minutes or less at 230°C, the manufactured communication wire can be placed in a high temperature environment. The sheath is less likely to deform even under mechanical load. Therefore, deformation of the sheath is less likely to affect communication characteristics.
- the signal line is configured as a twisted pair wire in which a pair of the insulated wires are twisted together. Since the signal line is configured as a twisted pair, the relative positions of the pair of insulated wires are more stable than when the pair of insulated wires are arranged in parallel without being twisted together. easy to hold. Therefore, in combination with the effect of setting the lower limit of the melt flow rate of the composition constituting the sheath, when the sheath is manufactured by extrusion molding, the relative positions of the insulated wires are particularly unlikely to change. As a result, it is easy to maintain particularly favorable communication characteristics of the communication wire.
- Another member should not be provided between the sheath and the signal line. Since there is no other member such as a shielding metal foil, a metal braid, or a release agent layer between the sheath and the signal line, the structure of the communication wire is simplified. In this case, the insulated wire that constitutes the signal line is in direct contact with the sheath. It is possible to sufficiently suppress the influence on the communication characteristics due to deformation of the sheath and thermal deformation of the formed sheath.
- the sheath preferably contains a low melting point polymer having a melt flow rate of 15 g/10 minutes or more measured under a load of 2.16 kg at 230°C and a melting point of 140°C or more. Since the composition constituting the sheath contains a low-melting-point polymer having a low melting point and a high melt flow rate, insulation is achieved when the melted sheath composition is introduced around the outer periphery of the signal line and extrusion molding is performed. The composition can be densely packed under stable conditions while the coating is less likely to be displaced or deformed.
- the proportion of the low-melting polymer in the polymer components constituting the sheath is preferably larger than the proportion of the low-melting polymer in the polymer components constituting the insulating coating.
- the insulating coating is less likely to be deformed by the heat of the melted sheath composition, and the sheath can be formed under stable conditions while maintaining the insulated wire in a state in which displacement and deformation are small.
- the sheath may further contain a high melting point polymer having a melting point of 160°C or higher.
- a sheath constituent material a low melting point polymer that exhibits high fluidity even at a relatively low temperature and a high melting point polymer that has a high melting point and therefore low fluidity are mixed to obtain a composition that constitutes the sheath as a whole. It is easy to adjust the melt flow rate within the predetermined range.
- Both the low-melting polymer and the high-melting polymer preferably contain polyolefin.
- Polyolefin is a polymer having a low dielectric constant and a low dielectric loss tangent, and when used as a constituent material of communication wires, it provides high communication characteristics.
- the melting point and melt flow rate can be adjusted over a wide range by adjusting the type and degree of polymerization of the monomer units. and melt flow rate can be easily adjusted to the desired range.
- melt flow rate refers to a value measured at 230° C. with a load of 2.16 kg. Unless otherwise specified, other properties are values measured at room temperature in the atmosphere.
- a certain component being the main component refers to a state in which the component accounts for 50% by mass or more of the total mass of the material.
- the polymer includes those having a relatively low degree of polymerization, such as oligomers. Terms such as parallel, perpendicular, orthogonal, circular, etc. that indicate the shape and arrangement of members include not only geometrically strict concepts but also errors within the allowable range for communication wires.
- FIG. 1 shows a cross-sectional view of a communication wire 1 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, cut perpendicularly to the axial direction.
- the communication wire 1 has a signal line 10.
- the signal line 10 includes multiple insulated wires (core wires) 11 .
- the communication wire 1 further has a sheath 20 covering the outer periphery of the signal wire 10 .
- the sheath 20 has a solid structure.
- the material constituting the sheath 20 will be described in detail later, but the MFR of the composition constituting the sheath 20 is 0.8 g/10 minutes or more and 2.1 g/10 minutes or less.
- Each insulated wire 11 that constitutes the signal line 10 has a conductor 12 and an insulating coating 13 that covers the outer circumference of the conductor 12 .
- the number of insulated wires 11 constituting the signal line 10 is not particularly limited, and may be two, four, or the like.
- a communication wire 1 including a pair of insulated wires 11, 11 as a signal wire 10 can be used to transmit differential signals.
- the signal line 10 may be configured as a parallel pair of wires in which a pair of insulated wires 11, 11 are arranged in parallel and are in contact with each other with their axial directions parallel to each other. 11 are preferably configured as twisted wire pairs that are twisted together.
- a twisted pair wire is superior to a parallel pair wire in the effect of stably holding the relative positions of the pair of insulated wires 11 , 11 .
- the signal line 10 is configured as a twisted pair wire will be mainly dealt with.
- the applicable frequency of the communication wire 1 is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that it can be used in a frequency range of at least 1 MHz to 50 MHz.
- the conductor 12 may be made of a single wire, it is preferably made of a stranded wire in which a plurality of strands (for example, 7 wires) are twisted together from the viewpoint of increasing flexibility when bending. In this case, after twisting the strands, compression molding may be performed to form a compressed stranded wire.
- the conductor 12 is configured as a stranded wire, all of them may be made of the same wire, or may be made of two or more kinds of wire.
- the insulating coating 13 contains an insulating polymer.
- the type of polymer is not particularly limited, but examples include olefin polymers such as polyolefins and olefin copolymers, halogen polymers such as polyvinyl chloride, various engineering plastics, elastomers, and rubbers.
- the polymers may be used singly or in combination of two or more by mixing, laminating, or the like.
- the polymer may be crosslinked or foamed.

- polyolefin As the polymer that constitutes the insulating coating 13 . Furthermore, it is preferable that polyolefin is the main component of the polymer component. Since polyolefin has a low dielectric constant and a low dielectric loss tangent, it is possible to obtain high communication characteristics in the communication wire 1 by using it as a constituent material of the insulating coating 13 . In particular, it is preferable to use polypropylene (PP) as the polyolefin. Polypropylene has a relatively high melting point and easily suppresses deformation due to temperature and resin pressure when forming the sheath 20 .
- the insulating coating 13 preferably contains a polyolefin component having a crystal melting energy of 85 J/g or more, more preferably 95 J/g or more. Insulating coating 13 containing a polymer having a large crystal melting energy enhances the effect of preventing deformation of insulating coating 13 when sheath 20 is formed. Insulating coating 13 preferably contains an acid-modified resin such as acid-modified SEBS in addition to polyolefin from the viewpoint of ensuring flexibility and extrusion moldability.
- the insulating coating 13 may contain lubricants such as silicone resin, erucic acid monoamide, and stearic acid (octadecanoic acid). Since these lubricants form a fine uneven structure on the surface of the insulating coating 13, they enhance the peelability between the signal line 10 and the sheath 20 without using a separate release agent such as inorganic powder.
- the amount of the lubricant to be added is preferably 5 parts by mass or more and 15 parts by mass or less with respect to 100 parts by mass of the polymer component forming the insulating coating 13 .
- the sheath 20 may contain a low melting point polymer having an MFR of 15 g/10 minutes or more and a melting point of 140° C. or less at a higher content rate than the insulating coating 13.
