Patent

CA 2272440

A composition that includes a hydrated inorganic filler and a polymer blend is disclosed. The polymer blend includes a polymerization or copolymerization product of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers. In addition, the polymer blend includes an aliphatic polyketone. The incorporation of aliphatic polyketone with polyethylene based polymers or copolymers results in dramatic improvements in both drip resistance and char strength; moreover, the composition of the present invention can use reduced amounts of hydrated inorganic filler relative to conventional polyethylene based compositions. This reduction in the amount of hydrated filler is expected to lead to improvements in physical properties and extrudability not otherwise possible. These properties make the compositions of the present invention particularly useful as an outer layer for electrical wires, optical fibers, or cables containing at least one wire, optical fiber, or both.
