Product Overview
STCE58501 is a thermoplastic flame-retardant TPE sheathing compound developed for electronic wires and data cables. It combines good processability, flame retardancy and resilience with a fine, soft hand feel, making it suitable for flexible cable jacket and outer sheath applications where appearance, touch and mechanical flexibility are important.
The material is designed as a flexible TPE cable sheathing compound and thermoplastic elastomer jacket material for electronic cable and data cable production. According to the supplied product catalogue, finished cables made with STCE58501 can pass the VW-1 flame test, while the compound itself achieves UL 94 V-0 at 4.0 mm. Its thermoplastic processing route also supports conventional extrusion without irradiation cross-linking.
