Abstract
Described is an insulated non-halogenated, heavy metal free vehicular cable comprising an inner core of a copper based metal wire having a cross sectional area of between about 0.05 mm2 and about 0.13 mm2, and an outer insulation, covering the length of the inner core, comprised of a thermoplastic polyphenylene ether composition that has no halogen or heavy metal added thereto.
Claims20
An insulated non-halogenated, heavy metal free vehicular cable comprising:
- a copper based metal core that has a cross-sectional area of about 0.05 mm2 to about 0.08 mm2;
- an outer insulation that surrounds the copper based metal core and comprises a thermoplastic polyphenylene ether composition that has no halogen or heavy metal added thereto, the outer insulation having a wall thickness from about 0.1 mm to about 0.2 mm.
An insulated vehicle cable comprising:
- a copper based metal core having by a cross-sectional area and a length;
- an insulation layer having a wall thickness and covering the length of the copper based metal core, the insulation layer being comprised of a polyphenylene ether material that is free of halogens and heavy metals;
- and
- wherein the cross-sectional area of the copper based metal core and the wall thickness of the insulation layer provide the insulated vehicle cable with an outer diameter from about 0.56 mm to about 0.80 mm.
