market-leading jacket materials, including PVC, while
offering additional benefits to cable manufacturers
needing to meet CSA Teck 90 certification.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Smoke mitigation
• Flame resistance
• Passes -40° cold impact testing
• Crush resistance
• UV resistance
• Suitable for CSA Teck 90 specification
• Excellent tensile strength (2,910 psi)
• Natural grades for easy colorability
MARKETS & APPLICATIONS
This LSFOH thermoplastic meets critical
requirements for low-voltage, armored cable jackets.

This small drop can be a game-changer in efficiencies
for a typical PVC extruder.
THE IMPACT
As tests and trials were conducted, it was shown that
the Excelite dispersion interacted more intimately and
consistently with PVC resin, essentially becoming part
of the PVC resin matrix.
To illustrate, in the same PVC dryblend (pictured below),
Excelite significanty reduced density with little to no
effect on cell quality.

re-melted and reformed.
Advantages
Recyclability, enhanced toughness, chemical
resistance, noise and vibration damping,
post-formability, and lower density
DURABILITY
STRENGTH
• Corrosion resistance for
marine and deep water
applications
