Masterbatch for Outdoor Telecom Cable Jacketing – DELTAVINIL & DELTAPLAST
DELTAVINIL and DELTAPLAST masterbatches from Delta Tecnic are designed for outdoor telecom cable jacketing applications, where weather resistance, colour stability and material durability are critical factors.
Compounds based on PVC, PE and EVA (including LSZH/HFFR solutions) are widely used in telecom cable outer sheathing due to their mechanical resistance, fire performance and versatility for both indoor and outdoor applications.
In outdoor environments, cables are exposed to UV radiation, moisture, temperature variations and environmental agents, requiring colour solutions capable of maintaining material performance over time.
DELTAVINIL and DELTAPLAST solutions ensure controlled pigment dispersion, ageing resistance and preservation of mechanical properties, delivering reliable performance under demanding conditions.

- Controlled colour fading: Formulations are designed to minimize colour loss under prolonged exposure, maintaining cable identification over time.
- Mechanical property preservation: The masterbatch maintains compound strength and flexibility, essential for cable durability.
- High resistance to environmental ageing: Ensures stable performance under weathering conditions, contributing to long service life.
- Compatibility with HFFR/LSZH systems: Solutions are adapted to halogen-free compounds, maintaining flame-retardant properties.
Additionally, these masterbatches provide a balanced combination of mechanical performance, colour stability and processability, even under demanding industrial extrusion conditions.
Applications:
DELTAVINIL & DELTAPLAST masterbatches for outdoor telecom are designed for applications where durability and environmental resistance are essential.
Typical applications:
Indoor & outdoor telecom cable jacketing: Cable sheathing used in both indoor and outdoor installations.
PVC/PE/EVA (LSZH) sheathing systems: Sheathing systems based on both traditional and halogen-free compounds.
Halogen-free telecom constructions: Applications requiring safe performance in case of fire.
Aerial and buried telecom installations: Installations exposed to demanding environmental conditions.
These applications require materials capable of ensuring UV resistance, colour stability and long-term durability
Technical FAQs
Why is UV resistance important in outdoor telecom cables?
Because UV radiation can degrade the polymer, leading to loss of mechanical properties and colour.
Can these masterbatches be used in HFFR/LSZH systems?
Yes. They are formulated to be compatible with halogen-free compounds.
Does the masterbatch affect material flexibility?
No. It is designed to preserve the mechanical properties of the compound.
Can formulations be adapted to specific projects?
Yes. Delta Tecnic can develop customized solutions with or without UV stabilization based on requirements.
