Cable & Wire
Cable & Wire manufacturing depends on a specific mix of raw materials to hit its production, cost, and quality targets. PlaxRaw supplies these materials with consistent specifications and reliable batch-to-batch supply.
Applications
High loadings of ATH replace halogenated flame retardants to meet low-smoke, low-toxicity fire safety standards.
PVC compounds form the primary insulation and jacketing layer of indoor electrical wiring, valued for cost-effective flame resistance.
HDPE provides the tough, moisture- and abrasion-resistant outer layer needed for buried ducts and outdoor cable runs.
HDPE and flame-retardant PVC/ATH compounds jacket fiber optic and copper data cables for both indoor riser and outdoor plant use.
PVC and ATH-filled flame-retardant compounds insulate low- and medium-voltage power cables against electrical and thermal stress.
Bars show a quick approximate share in a general formulation for this industry — actual ratios vary by product and production line.
