Polymers must be cross-linked to withstand the high temperatures generated by the metal wires they protect.
UV resistance: Permanently outside, these cables need excellent weather and UV resistance to protect them from degrading in direct sunlight.
Producing a material that achieves all these at a thin coating thickness is a challenge.

THE CHALLENGE
Recent attacks on U.S. electrical substations across the
country provide stark reminders that our nation’s power
supply remains a primary target for criminals focused
on harming our country and security.1
The call to action is evident: we must continually
improve the physical and technological infrastructure
protection of our nation’s energy supply.
Surveillance is an economical option,
but it does not protect against an immediate physical
attack on an asset.

What’s more, using lubricants to protect a component from wear is a two-step process, because the part must first be manufactured, then coated with oil or grease, adding cost to the manufacturing process.
Beyond improved surface appearance, protection from friction, and reduced wear, these polymers also offer the design freedom and part consolidation potential of thermoplastics.
