With the development of technology and overall productivity of the cable industry, more and more countries and organisations around the world attach importance to environmental protection, the cable industry has also entered the era of environmental protection, many developed countries have strictly prohibited the use of non-environmentally friendly cables.

At present, China also attaches great importance to this aspect, China's relevant laws and regulations on the explicit requirements, important buildings are prohibited from using PVC wire and cable, must use low smoke halogen-free cross-linked PVC wire and cable, ordinary wire and cable in the fire will be released after burning a lot of smoke, chlorine gas, to the surrounding buildings and personnel caused great harm, and low smoke halogen-free cable can be in the event of a fire can effectively avoid these problems.

The development of environmentally friendly cables has effectively promoted the development of the entire cable industry, enhancing the production competitiveness of the cable industry and moving steadily forward on the road to sustainable development.

In recent years, domestic cable companies are also gradually to the field of environmental protection cable development, and in the production of cable products as far as possible without lead, chromium and other heavy metals, does not contain harmful halogen gas, does not produce corrosive gases, does not pollute the soil, not only by the market welcome, but also for the cause of environmental protection in China.

Therefore, the characteristics of environmentally friendly cables on the market and the requirements of the market for environmentally friendly cables are, first of all, the requirement for a low content of heavy metals, certain heavy metals can cause harm to the human body, and the common ingredients of PVC usually contain lead, chromium and other heavy metal compounds.

1. Since the 1990s, some developed countries have made it mandatory for PVC wire and cable to have clear requirements on the proportion of the content of eight heavy metals that are harmful to human health, and these regulations have led to the birth of environmentally friendly cables.

 

2. Environmental protection cable also requires low smoke and low hydrogen oxide and other characteristics, ordinary cable burning will release a large amount of black smoke and toxic gases, thus causing secondary damage after the fire, not only to the surrounding buildings, smoke and poisonous gases will also cause hindrance and damage to the people escaping from the fire, seriously affecting the evacuation of personnel and firefighting work, so the modern environmental protection cable will require low smoke, low hydrogen oxide and other characteristics.

 

3. Environmental cable production is also more stringent requirements for materials, all components should be non-toxic, cable material contains a large number of plasticizers, but the manufacture of non-toxic materials must be used non-toxic plasticizers.

 

 

Therefore, the requirements for this PVC material are higher than those for lead-free and heavy metal-free material, and naturally the selling price is more expensive

As environmental issues become more and more important, many countries have developed various environmental policies, so in the future, environmentally friendly cables will certainly win the market and the popularity of the times.
