Abstract
Abstract Electrical insulating compositions consisting of an ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer containing from 0.5 to 9.5 percent by weight of vinyl acetate units, from 0.1 to 2.0 percent by weight of polymerized 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline, from 0.5 to 5 percent by weight of a triallyl cyanurate and, optionally, up to 0.1 percent by weight of sulfur. The compositions can be crosslinked, with high yield, by treatment with high energy radiation.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
112 words
An electrical insulating composition consisting of (A) an ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer which consists of, as copolymerized units, from 99.5 to 90.5 percent by weight of ethylene and from 0.5 to 9.5 percent by weight of vinyl acetate, the sum of the percentages by weight being 100 and the melt index of the copolymer being from 0.2 to 5 g/10 min., (B) from 0.1 to 2.0 percent by weight, based on A), of polymerized 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline having a softening point of from 108 to 118° C., (c) from 0.5 to 5 percent by weight, based on A), of triallyl cyanurate, and (D) from 0 to 0.1 percent by weight, based on A), of sulfur.
