Polyamide compositions for use in forming wire or cable jacket compositions. The polyamide compositions include a component of polyamide 6/66 copolymer formed from substantially randomly distributed caprolactam monomers and hexamethylene diamine monomers. The polyamide 6/66 copolymer component may form the entirety of the polyamide composition or alternatively, the polyamide composition may include an amount of polyamide 6 homopolymer blended with the polyamide 6/66 copolymer component. The composition also includes one or more additives, such as at least one UV mitigation component which, due to the reduced crystallinity of the polyamide 6/66 copolymer component, is incorporated into the polyamide composition with desirable transmission and haze characteristics as well as providing for retention of physical properties such as tensile strength at break and elongation at break.

Providing a corrosion-resistant terminal material by using a copper or copper alloy base material as a terminal to which an end of wire having an aluminum core wire is crimped. Corrosion-resistant terminal material has a substrate made of copper or a copper alloy and a film layered on the substrate, the corrosion-terminal material is formed to have a planned core wire contact part with which a core wire of an electric wire is in contact when the material is formed to a terminal and a planned contact part to be a contact part: the film formed in the planned core wire contact part has a tin layer made of tin or tin alloy and a metallic zinc layer formed on the tin layer; the film formed in the planned contact part has a tin layer made of tin or tin alloy but does not have a metallic zinc layer.

A cable accessory for injecting fluid into a cable. The accessory has first and second ends configured to be coupled to the cable and an external cable accessory, respectively. The accessory has an injection port configured to introduce the fluid to a stranded conductor of the cable. The accessory may include a body and conductive rod. The body defines a through-channel configured to receive the conductor. The rod has a first portion that extends outwardly from the second end to be received inside the external cable accessory and to form an electrical connection therewith. The rod has a second portion configured to be coupled to the conductor and form an electrical connection therewith. The second portion (with the conductor coupled thereto) is positionable inside the through-channel with the first portion extending outward from the second end. The fluid is injectable into the conductor through injection port, which extends into the through-channel.

A fitting for injecting a first fluid into an injection port of a cable accessory. The fitting includes at least one seal positioned on an injection nozzle. The nozzle is configured to be inserted into the port and has an internal fluid passageway through which the first fluid is injected into the accessory. The seal forms at least one fluid tight seal between the nozzle and the port. The fluid tight seal prevents the first fluid from exiting the accessory and flowing into an outer portion of the port and prevents a second fluid from flowing into an inner portion of the port. The first and second fluids have first and second voltage potentials, respectively. The second voltage potential is different from the first voltage potential. The seal isolates the first and second voltage potentials by isolating the first fluid from the second fluid.

A cable may include a plurality of twisted pairs of individually insulated conductors, a separator positioned between the twisted pairs, and a jacket formed around the twisted pairs and the separator. The separator may include a longitudinally extending spine positioned between the plurality of twisted pairs and a plurality of projections extending from the spine. Each projection may extend between at least one adjacent set of twisted pairs. Further, along a longitudinal length of the separator, the plurality of projections extend between all of the adjacent sets of twisted pairs. However, at any given cross-sectional point along the longitudinal length, the separator does not extend between all of the adjacent sets of twisted pairs.

A polyolefin-and-poly (2-alkyl-2-oxazoline) formulation comprising (A) an olefin-based (co) polymer, (B) a poly (2-alkyl-2-oxazoline) (co) polymer, and (C) an antioxidant. Also a method of making the composition; a crosslinked polyolefin product made by curing the composition; manufactured articles comprising a shaped form of the inventive formulation or product; and methods of using the inventive formulation, product, or articles.

The present invention relates to stabilising compositions, particularly stabilising compositions which can be used to stabilise insulation or semi-conductive compositions, such as are used for electrically insulating wires and cables. The stabilising composition comprises: a first stabilising component comprising at least one fully hindered phenolic antioxidant; a second stabilising component comprising at least one partially hindered phenolic antioxidant; and a third stabilising component comprising at least one sulphur-containing antioxidant.
