Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to electrical insulation material of a polyolefin composition containing an additive which prevents the formation of so-called water trees. Barbituric acid compounds are the additives and include barbituric acid, 2-thiobarbituric acid or substituted barbituric or thiobarbituric acid derivatives. The electrical insulation according to the invention is suited particularly for use in cables and wires.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
69 words
An electrical insulation material with an additive for preventing the formation of water trees, which comprises: a polyolefin composition with a barbituric acid compound additive selected from barbituric acid, 2-thiobarbituric acid or a barbituric acid derivative having the formula: ##STR2## wherein: X is oxygen or sulfur, R is hydrogen or alkyl, and R 1 and R 2 are each independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl alkenyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl or aryl.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
