About Calcium Carbonate for Cables

Calcium Carbonate for Cables Cables are manufactured from solid materials or stranded copper core. Previously fire resistant cable shell are made from PVC plastic, it is flammable, while fire, it creates smoke and waste large amounts of toxic gases, endanger human life. Using Calcium Carbonate is GREAT SOLUTION for this problem! - Calcium carbonate is non toxic, odorless and tasteless, it does not affect the environment. - The thermal decomposition temperature of calcium carbonate above 800 , and general plastic are flammable, and its ignition temperature of about 400 , so the initial combustion stage, the hope of calcium carbonate decomposition in carbon dioxide is not possible Shivish Microns LLP Calcium carbonate for cables is a cost effective filler, reducing product cost effectiveness

FAQ's of Calcium Carbonate for Cables:

Q: How is calcium carbonate used in cable manufacturing?

A: Calcium carbonate acts as a functional filler, enhancing the strength, dimensional stability, and insulation properties of cables. It is blended with PVC and other polymer materials during the production of insulation and sheathing for cables.

Q: What are the benefits of using calcium carbonate in cables?

A: Its inclusion improves mechanical strength, thermal insulation, and dimensional stability of cables. Additionally, it provides a fine surface finish and helps lower production costs by partially replacing more expensive raw materials.

Q: When should calcium carbonate be added during the cable production process?

A: It is typically added during the compounding stage, where the base polymer is mixed with fillers, stabilizers, and other additives before extrusion or molding into cable components.

Q: Where should calcium carbonate be stored to maintain its quality?

A: Store the product in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and contaminants, to preserve its low moisture content and white, powdery consistency.

Q: What makes this calcium carbonate suitable for cable applications?

A: With a particle size range of 1-10 microns, low moisture content, high purity, and a fine, smooth powder texture, it optimizes processing efficiency while boosting dimensional and thermal stability in cable insulation and sheathing.

Q: How does calcium carbonate improve the strength of cables?

A: The filler reinforces the cable's polymer matrix, resulting in enhanced mechanical properties such as tensile strength and resistance to deformation, which are critical for durable and long-lasting cables.
