The sheath layer should have good insulation properties which are challenging to achieve with low coating thickness containing flame retardants.
This includes standards for flame retardant performance to IEC 60332-1, another key characteristic to consider.

nge Accepted.
After
evaluating and approving the material’s physical properties,
the manufacturer also requested that it was formulated to
be flame-retardant.
Avient’s development team went back
to work and quickly developed a flame-retardant grade that
meets UL requirements for a V0 rating.
