Visico LE0542 is a silane crosslinkable black polyethylene compound, specially designed for semiconductive conductor screen and bonded insulation screen of energy cables.

It is used for co-extrusion with LDPE silane crosslinkable insulation materials.

Applications
Visico LE0542 is designed for semiconductive screens in silane crosslinkable medium voltage cables with rated voltages up to 36 kV. It can be used as inner and outer screen for bonded cable constructions and as inner screen for strippable cable constructions.

Specifications
Visico LE0542 meets the applicable requirements as below when processed using sound extrusion practice and
testing procedure:

• IEC 60502-2

• Cenelec HD620 S2

Special features
Visico LE0542 is a ready-to-use semiconductive compound, which requires no further addition of a catalyst masterbatch. Visico LE0542 crosslinks via the migration of catalyst from its co-extrusion with silane insulation layer. The excellent distribution of carbon black and additives in Visico LE0542 would result in a smooth semiconductive screen.
