| Casico FR4805 is a thermoplastic, non-halogen containing natural jacketing compound. It combines high mechanical strength and toughness with flame retardancy. The composition of Casico FR4805 is based on the elements Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Silicon, and Calcium. Compounds based on these elements will therefore be the only significant constituents of the combustion fumes. Other elements my be present in concentrations less than 0.1%. Flame retardancy is conferred by an inorganic filler and a novel char forming additive Casico FR4805 is intended to be used as a 90°C rated jacket for fixed building wires (installation cables) and all types of power cables. This product can be used in areas sensitive to smoke or corrosive and toxic combustion products. The principal feature of this product is the high physical strength and toughness. For small downsized cables the enhanced physical properties compensate for reduced cross sectional area. For most cable constructions Casico FR4805 has sufficient flame retardancy to satisfy single wire vertical burning tests. The product contains a UV stabilization system.
