The present invention provides a composition. The composition comprises (i) an ethylene-based polymer; (ii) an organic peroxide, (iii) a phosphine oxide, and (iv) a protic acid source compound ("PASC") selected from the group consisting of: protic acid, proton Acid-Generator Compounds ("PAGC") and combinations thereof. The present invention also provides a coated conductor. The coated conductor comprises a conductor and a coating on the conductor, the coating comprising a composition comprising (i) an ethylene-based polymer; (ii) an organic peroxide; (iii) an oxidative Phosphine, and (iv) a protic acid source compound ("PASC") selected from the group consisting of: protonic acid, protonic acid-generator compound ("PAGC"), and combinations thereof. |
