Product Description
GETILAN is the trade-mark of our crosslinkable polythene.
GETILAN GPE/410 AF is a chemically crosslinkable low smoke and low toxicity halogen free flame retardant compound for insulation and sheathing.
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 PSF.
Where and when anti-ageing and anti-copper functions are required, we suggest our type MAC/202 or MAC/308 PSL (less in reaction).
REACTION BETWEEN GRAFTING AND CATALYST
These two compounds, separately stored, must be mixed before starting extrusion in the ratio:
GRAFTING/CATALYST 97 / 3
