Product Overview

EPC6927 and EPC6925 are Low Dielectric High-Frequency Cable Compound developed for long-distance high-frequency signal cable constructions. Both grades combine flame retardancy, good thermoplastic processability and relatively low dielectric constant for signal-transmission applications.

 

The Low Dielectric LSZH High-Frequency Cable Compounds provide two material profiles for cable designers. EPC6927 has the lower dielectric loss factor in the supplied data, while EPC6925 provides the lower dielectric constant, lower density and higher elongation. Final selection should be based on the cable's electrical design, attenuation target, mechanical requirements and extrusion conditions.

 

Why Choose EPC6927 or EPC6925?

f

1. Low-Dielectric Material Route

Both grades are specifically positioned for cable constructions requiring relatively low dielectric constant and are intended for long-distance high-frequency signal transmission applications.

 

2. EPC6927 - Lower Dielectric Loss Factor

EPC6927 has a typical dielectric constant of 3.00 and dielectric loss factor tanδ of 0.0040, the lower tanδ of the two grades.

 

3. EPC6925 - Lower Dielectric Constant

EPC6925 has a typical dielectric constant of 2.82, together with lower density of 1.37 g/cm³ and higher elongation of 260%.

 

4. LSZH / HFFR Performance

Both grades have a typical oxygen index of 30% and typical halogen content of 0 ppm.

 

5. Balanced Mechanical Performance

EPC6927 provides 12.5 MPa tensile strength and 220% elongation; EPC6925 provides 12.8 MPa and 260%.

 

6. Thermoplastic Processing

Both grades can be processed on conventional PVC/PE cable extrusion equipment without post-extrusion irradiation.

 

Typical Applications  

  • Long-distance high-frequency signal cables
  • High-frequency data / signal transmission cable constructions
  • Communication cables requiring lower dielectric constant
  • Signal cables where dielectric loss must be considered
  • LSZH / HFFR high-frequency cable sheathing applications

Processing Guidelines

  • EPC6927 and EPC6925 can be processed on conventional PVC/PE cable extrusion equipment.
  • Recommended profile: 100°C / 110°C / 125°C / 135°C / 150°C / 155°C / 160°C / 165°C.
  • Keep melt temperature below approximately 165°C and do not exceed 175°C during extrusion.
  • A low-compression screw and head are recommended, with a compression ratio around 1:1.2.
  • Optimize die design, cooling and line speed according to cable diameter, layer thickness and signal-transmission design.
  • Final electrical performance should be validated on the customer's complete cable construction.

Important High-Frequency Cable Selection Note

Dielectric constant and dielectric loss factor are material-level indicators. Actual attenuation, impedance and high-frequency transmission performance depend on the complete cable structure, conductor geometry, insulation / sheath design and processing quality. Final selection should therefore be confirmed through finished-cable testing.
