    Oct. 6, 2011
    The Apex P-55003 and P-55004 jacketing compounds for industrial data and control cables are based on blends of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU).

    The Apex P-55003 and P-55004 jacketing compounds for industrial data and control cables are based on blends of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU).

    Applications include use in factory-automation networks, industrial robots, and other plant systems requiring data or control cable. The compounds provide resistance to oil and chemicals, toughness at low temperatures, and oxygen indices comparable to those of standard PVC jacketing compounds.
