(21) 1. The ceramified silicone rubber is substance that can be burned to a tough ceramic object at high temperature. The ceramified process of silicone rubber is a process of solidifying and binding the combustion products of silicone rubber, where the discrete, loose and discontinuous small inorganic particles can be tightly bonded together. Since the formation mechanism and the final product are similar to those of ceramic material, this material subjected to such a process is called ceramified silicone rubber. Such material has the advantages of ceramic material, for example, insulation, heat isolation, fireproofing, shock absorption, and low thermal weight loss.

(22) 2. The ceramified silicone rubber is non-toxic and odorless, highly soft and elastic, and excellent in moisture resistance and resistance to water absorption. The ceramified silicone rubber is burned to a tough ceramic armor shell in flame ablation after 2-4 min. An isolating layer formed by such a tough ceramic armor shell can quite effectively block the continuous combustion. And, no more smoke will be generated after about 2 min. In the subsequent ablation process, no more smoke will be generated. Even smoke generated in the first 2 min is halogen-free, non-toxic and harmless.

(23) 3. The ceramified silicone rubber is highly fireproof. Filling MgO can effectively protect the insulating wire cores against flame so that the smoothness of the lines is ensured. No fire will be caused even if short-circuit occurs.

(24) Advantages:

(25) 1: excellent insulating property, which can reach the electrical properties of XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene);

(26) 2: excellent high/low temperature resistance, long-term working temperature ranging from 70 C. to 200 C., long service life up to 50 years depending on specific environmental conditions, hardened over 350 C., and suitable for long-term use in static environments;

(27) 3. resistant to ozone aging and UV aging, free of anti-ageing agents and antioxidants, and long service life up to 50 years at normal temperature;

(28) 4. special surface properties, extremely low moisture absorption and water absorption (0.17%), and good mildew resistance;

(29) 5. environmentally-friendly, halogen-free, free of heavy metals, non-toxic, odorless, and harmless to both the human body and the environment;

(30) 6. high chemical corrosion resistance, waterproof and oil resistance;

(31) 7. good processing performance, ease of mixing, molding, calendaring and extruding, and good rubber fluidity; and

(32) 8. lowest level of fume, smoke and toxicity of the ceramified silicone rubber, among the high polymer materials at present.

(33) The ceramified silicone rubber cable can be burned to a tough ceramic object at high temperature, and a tough ceramic armor will be formed to ensure the smoothness of the lines. This is the most revolutionary feature of the ceramified silicone rubber cable. The ceramic armor will be tougher at a higher temperature for a longer ablation period.
