Porous material of polytetrafluoroethylene and production process thereof

In the connection or terminal portions of cross-linked polyethylene cables produced by winding irradiated tapes around the connection or terminal portions of cross-linked polyethylene insulated cables and heat molding the same, the irradiated tapes comprise polyethylene and/or an ethylene copolymer as a base resin plus an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer containing more than about 15% vinylacetate (VA) in an amount which provides more than an about 2.5% VA content in the irradiated tapes.

Connection or terminal portions for cross-linked polyethylene cables

Electric wires or cables having a dielectric layer or layers of an uncross-linked or cross-linked mixture of (1) a polyolefin and (2a) polystyrene or (2b) a styrene copolymer. The polystyrene is present in such an amount as to provide a 10 to 30% styrene content, based on the entire mixture weight, while if the styrene copolymer is used it is present in such an amount as to provide a 3 to 30% styrene content, based on the entire mixture weight. The mixture may comprise, alternatively, both polystyrene and a styrene copolymer in an amount so as to provide a 10 to 30% and a 5 to 20% styrene content, due to the former and the later, respectively, based on the entire mixture weight.
