SUPEROHM® 3752

MEDIUM VOLTAGE, LEAD FREE CROSSLINKABLE EPR ELECTRICAL

INSULATION COMPOUND SUITABLE FOR APPLICATIONS UP TO 35 kV (RoHS
COMPLIANT)

DESCRIPTION
Off-white polymeric composition in pellet form, based on EPR rubber containing peroxide curing agent,
ready for extrusion in a conventional CV or dry cure extrusion line.

APPLICATIONS
Cables insulated with SUPEROHM® 3752 are suitable for industrial, power, mining, distribution, and other
medium voltage applications for wire and cable products rated up to 35 kV.

SPECIFICATIONS

PROCESSING
SUPEROHM® 3752 compound is engineered to be processed on conventional extrusion equipment. It is
recommended that this product is processed using a shallow screw, cross channel obstruction such as
mixing rings should be avoided. Metering screw with 2.5-3:1 compression ratio in 20/1 extruders should
produce satisfactory results. The compound supplied is in the cleanest state and is of the highest quality;
however, the use of a breaker plate with a screen pack of approximately 20/40 or 20/60 mesh is
recommended for optimal rheological flow and steady back pressure.

Pre-drying of the compound is not necessary, provided that the compound has been stored unopened in a
cool, dry area.

The following conditions are given as a guide for processing (single extrusion):

Temperature Profile: F C
Screw: 170-180 77-82
Zone 1 (feed): 210-220 99-105
Zone 2: 210-220 99-105
Zone 3: 210-220 99-105
Zone 4: 210-220 99-105
Crosshead: 220-230 105-110

DELIVERY
Form: Pellets
Package: 1,600 pounds (726 Kg) per box.

CERTIFICATION
Certified Test Results including physical test data are included with each shipment.

HANDLING
To ensure health and safety, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are available and should be consulted
prior to use.

STORAGE
SUPEROHM® 3752 containers should be stored at temperatures below 50C (120F) in a dry area to avoid
massing of pellets. Product is recommended to be used within 12 months.
