Abstract
A flame-retardant electric cable has a core including an electric conductor and an electrically insulating layer. The electrically insulating layer includes a flame-retardant polyolefin-based composition which includes, as base polymer, a mixture of at least two polyolefin homopolymers and/or copolymer wherein at least one is a low-density polyethylene copolymer having a density lower than 0.915 g/cm3. The flame-retardant polyolefin-based composition also includes calcinated kaolin in an amount greater than 3 phr, a metal hydroxide in an amount greater than 10 phr, and an alkyl or alkenyl alkoxy siloxane. The alkyl or alkenyl alkoxy siloxane is in an amount ratio of from 1:25 to 1:50 with respect to the sum of the amounts of calcinated kaolin and of the metal hydroxide.
