Wire construction for cables having insulation and functionality applying in case of fire

摘要

A wire for use in electric cables, has a fire-resistant insulation based on cross-linkable polymers including ceramic-forming additives. The insulation surrounds a conductor, wherein the insulation has a first layer of a first composition, and a second layer of a second composition surrounding the outside of the first layer, the first and the second compositions including different ceramic forms in the composition because the second outer layer is formed at a lower temperature range than the composition of the inner first layer.
