| abstract |
The present invention is a highly mineral-filled halogen-free, flame-retardant composition made from or containing a polypropylene thermoplastic elastomer, a polypropylene, a metal hydroxide filler, and a polar-monomer-grafted polyolefin elastomer compatibilizer. The invented system has improved tensile strength, improved elongation at break, and low permanent deformation at increasingly high test temperatures. The invention also includes cables and extruded articles prepared from the composition. |
