Borstar® HE6067

Borstar HE6067 is a black high density (HD) jacketing compound, which is produced with the Borealis proprietary  Borstar bimodal process technology. 

Borstar technology allows the manufacturing of polymers outside the traditional MFR and density range making it  possible to optimize processability, reduce shrinkage and yet provide excellent physical toughness and  environmental stress crack resistance (ESCR). 

Borstar HE6067 contains 2.5% well-dispersed carbon black in order to ensure excellent weathering resistance. 

Applications 

Borstar HE6067 is designed for jacketing of energy and communication cables. 

Borstar HE6067 offers substantially reduced shrinkage which helps to maintain low signal attenuation for fibre  optic communication cables and low jacket retraction for energy cables in combination with excellent mechanical  and barrier properties. Borstar HE6067 offers a balance of properties giving advantages in manufacturing,  installation and lifetime performance of communication and energy cables.
