Delta Tecnic has developed a range of Masterbatches to suit fibre optic cable producer needs. We offer a specific technical solution for each need, always following international colour standards, with intense colour and high opacity.

PBT: PBT Masterbatches for buffer tubes are designed to maintain all the mechanical properties of the main PBT resin used to protect the cable. A good match between PBT Masterbatch and PBT resin will keep the tube concentric and will not slow fibre data speed. Delta has PBT ranges to match our customer’s PBT resin.

TPE-E: Used in the Fibre Optic industry to protect the fibre while increasing cable flexibility. Delta Tecnic has developed a standard line of Masterbatches to colour the cable.

PAE: Polyamide elastomer, Polyamide 12, a high performance elastomer used to cover the fibre. Delta’s range of PAE colour Masterbatches maintains all mechanical properties while providing the brightest colours on the market.

HDPE: For fibre optic cable producers using HDPE polymer for buffer tubes, Delta has a range of Masterbatches for this solution. Thanks to our experience, we can state that our Masterbatches do not modify tube concentricity or slow fibre data speed.

PP: Another solution for buffer tubes is to use PP as a main polymer. In line with our customers’ needs, Delta has developed a range of Masterbatches for this polymer. We ensure perfect compatibility with the main PP polymer.

Outdoor Jacketing: Delta Tecnic offers Masterbatches for outdoor jacketing of fibre optic cables. HFFR is the most common material, but PE or PVC are also available. We choose outdoor pigments to slow colour fading and can also include a UV additive to protect the polymer when required.
