PREPERM™ Solutions for 5G
The increased demand for data capacity and low
latency and the growing volume of connected
devices require more base stations and higher
frequencies.
The dielectric measurement data up to 220 GHz
indicates that the dielectric properties of PREPERM
thermoplastics are stable and not dependent on
the frequency.

Human Health & Safety
It involves evaluating the potential health risks associated with the identified NIAS based on available toxicological data and exposure assessments.
A commitment to safety, sustainability, and innovation is best achieved through collaborative efforts.

Highly flame retardant—helps to prevent
a fire, or limit the damage if one starts
• Non-halogenated—in the case of a fire,
there are no acid gas emissions which can
damage equipment and buildings
• Low smoke—in the event of fire, people can
locate escape routes, and fire fighters can
quickly find the source of the fire
• Low toxicity—in the event of a fire, people
are not overcome by toxic fumes
• Low dripping—no flaming droplets which
can further propagate the fire or cause injury
• Low emission of corrosive gases when
burned—avoids potential damage to
electrical components and equipment, and
improves human safety
MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS
The ECCOH XL 8001 is a flame retardant material
for thermoset cable insulation.
