Ampacet Expands ELTech™ Range to Include Color Masterbatches for Optical Fiber Cable
2024-06-24 08:48
Ampacet, a global masterbatch leader, has expanded its ELTech™ portfolio to include a range of high performance color masterbatches based on a Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) carrier resin and specifically designed for optical fiber cable PBT jacketing.
Optical fiber cable jacketing is often made of Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) to benefit from its mechanical properties such as high strength and stiffness as well as resistance to heat and chemicals. PBT jacketing is often selected for indoor optical fiber cables used in building and construction as well as in data centers. For ease of installation, optical fiber cable manufacturers use a color-coding system such as the RAL system to identify individual optical fibers.
ELTech masterbatches for optical fiber cable preserve high-performance signal transmission and feature excellent opacity at a low addition rate, high resistance to heat and color fading and include 16 colors that comply with RAL color references. Additional shades using custom colors or color-coding systems such as RAL or Pantone can be developed upon request.
“The significant increase in consumer and business demand for high-speed internet has resulted in dramatic growth in the fiber optic cable market, ,” says Fran?ois Thibeau, Ampacet Strategic Business Manager E&E. “We have responded to customer needs by expanding our ELTech range to include color masterbatches for optical fiber cable.”
The ELTech product range also includes masterbatches combining color with functional additives. For proper functionality and operability of E&E applications, Ampacet offers advanced additive masterbatches, including laser marking, metal deactivators, UV stabilizers, flame retardants, antimicrobial, scratch resistance, slip and release, odor absorbers, process stabilizers and processing aids.
