Product Profile of Monoaxially Oriented Polypropylene Formulated Film For Jelly Filled Communication Cable Industry

Midland Polymers Limited manufactures Monoaxially Oriented Polypropylene Formulated Film for Jelly Filled Communication Cable Industry. Midland Polymers Limited offers mono-axially Oriented Polypropylene Film, MOPP films, etc. The Monoaxially Oriented Polypropylene Formulated Film for Jelly Filled Communication Cable Industry can also be used in helical wrapping or in longitudinal wrap with equal ease and efficiency.

Applications of Monoaxially Oriented Polypropylene Formulated Film for Jelly Filled Communication Cable Industry are:

• Core wrapping: The main aim of core wrapping tape is to safeguard the core by containing the jelly, preventing water penetration and to act as an electric and thermal insulator. This requires adequate properties of the film along with proper overlap to avoid gaps. Super-JFTC is engineered right down from concept to give a perfect product.

• Bedding: The main aim of bedding tape is to provide a mechanically protective layer between cable cores and armouring tapes. This requires high abrasion resistance, high tensile strength, low elongation and good puncture resistance. Super-JFTC is inherently, an ideal material for this application.




Key Features of Monoaxially Oriented Polypropylene Formulated Film For Jelly Filled Communication Cable Industry

• No gaps in the wrapping due to more pliability and conformability resulting in a permanent clinging action to jelly and preventing water penetration.
• Very low water and moisture permeability as compared to polyester, due to its non-hygroscopic nature.
• Water penetration tests conducted in our R&D lab as well as by our esteemed customers have shown results confirming these properties and their benefits in guarding the cable against water penetration.
• Its low density gives outright saving of 40% on cost as compared to polyester, for same film thickness. Using a 25-40 microns film in place of 100 micron LDPE/HDPE film in bedding application is again a super cost saver.
• It has high tensile strength and low elongation in machine direction which allows faster speed during cable making and reduced machine downtime by less snapping in film due to superior tear resistance in cross direction.
• Low thermal conductivity protects inner cables from deformation and from sticking together.
