Abstract
Polymeric compositions comprising a blend of high-density polyethylene ('HDPE') with ethylene vinyl acetate ('EVA'), and optionally with a carbon black and/or one or more other additives, where the polymeric compositions have certain melt-index and vinyl-acetate-content ranges to improve melt strength and processability. Such polymeric compositions can be employed in manufacturing coated conductors, such as fiber optic cables.
