Product introduction: The comparison of high-voltage PVC cables can be mainly analyzed from the aspects of their performance characteristics, application scenarios, and comparison with other insulating materials.

1. Performance characteristics of high-voltage PVC cables

Electrical performance: PVC insulation materials perform well in electrical performance and can meet the general needs of high-voltage cables. Its volume resistivity and dielectric strength both reach a high level, ensuring the safety and stability of the cable during transmission.

Mechanical properties: PVC materials have high tensile strength and tensile strain at break, which makes the cable less likely to be damaged when subjected to external forces, ensuring the mechanical strength and durability of the cable.

Heat resistance: Although the thermal stability of PVC materials is relatively poor, its heat resistance can be improved to a certain extent through formula optimization and improvement to meet specific high-voltage cable application scenarios. However, in high temperature environments, the performance of PVC cables may be affected and special attention needs to be paid.

Flame retardancy: PVC insulation materials have good flame retardant properties, which can effectively prevent the spread of fire and improve the safety of cables in fires.

Environmental protection: With the improvement of environmental awareness, non-toxic and odorless PVC insulation materials have gradually gained favor in the market. This type of material does not produce toxic gases and a lot of smoke when burned, and is environmentally friendly.

2. Application scenarios of high-voltage PVC cables

High-voltage PVC cables are widely used in power, lighting, electronics and other fields, especially in some low-voltage cable scenarios with certain cost requirements. However, in the field of high-voltage cables, the application of PVC materials is relatively limited, and more often insulating materials with higher heat resistance and electrical properties, such as cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), are used.

3. Comparison with other insulating materials

Compared with XLPE: XLPE insulating materials have higher heat resistance and electrical properties, and can withstand higher temperatures and voltage levels, so they are more widely used in the field of high-voltage cables. In contrast, PVC materials are slightly insufficient in heat resistance and electrical properties.

Compared with PE: PE insulating materials also have high voltage resistance and insulation properties, but their tensile strength is relatively low, and additional mechanical protection measures are required. PVC materials are better than PE in mechanical properties, but may be slightly inferior in electrical properties and heat resistance.

Compared with silicone rubber: Silicone rubber insulating materials have excellent high temperature resistance and weather resistance, but the price is relatively high. PVC material has an advantage in cost, but it is not as good as silicone rubber in terms of high temperature resistance and weather resistance.

In summary, high-voltage PVC cables have certain advantages in electrical performance, mechanical performance, heat resistance, etc., but their application in the field of high-voltage cables is relatively limited. When selecting cables, it is necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as specific application scenarios, voltage levels, environmental conditions, and costs.
