| abstract |
A polymeric composition for coating electric cables for power transmission at medium/high voltage, having an improved resistance against the formation of the so-called water trees, comprises a polymeric polyolefin base including, in parts by weight to the total weight thereof, from 0.5 to 15 parts of ester groups and from 0.01 to 5 parts of epoxy groups. Electric cables according to the invention comprise at least one electrically conducting core (2) and an insulation coating (5) comprising the aforementioned polymeric composition. |
