Product Description
GETILAN GPE/150 LE-LS is a crosslinkable polythene.
GETILAN GPE/150 LE-LS is a medium density chemically crosslinkable polythene compound for low voltage power cable insulation and sheathing. The LS type is faster on crrosslink.
It is a conveniently grafted polythene able to react in presence of moisture and of a catalyst.
We normally suggest our catalyst type MAC/100 PS.
Where and when anti-ageing and anti-copper functions are required, we suggest our type MAC/100 SCU special catalyst.
REACTION BETWEEN GRAFTING AND CATALYST
These two compounds, separately stored, must be mixed before starting extrusion.
