    摘要: The invention belongs to the field of insulating materials, in particular cable insulating materials, and particularly relates to a modified flexible polypropylene insulating material, and preparation method and use thereof. The modified flexible polypropylene insulating material comprises a propylene-based continuous phase, and a rubber phase and a grafted phase derived from an unsaturated bond-containing polymerizable monomer dispersed in the propylene-based continuous phase; wherein, the modified flexible polypropylene insulating material has a content of xylene solubles of 10-55 wt %, preferably 15-45 wt %, more preferably 18-40 wt %, and still more preferably 20-40 wt %, based on the total weight of the modified flexible polypropylene insulating material; the content of structural units derived from the unsaturated bond-containing polymerizable monomer and in a grafted state in the modified flexible polypropylene insulating material is 0.3-6 wt %, and preferably 0.7-5 wt %; the flexural modulus of the modified flexible polypropylene insulating material is 200-1000 MPa, preferably 200-950 MPa, more preferably 200-700 MPa, and still more preferably 250-600 MPa; preferably, the ratio of the mass of the structural units derived from the unsaturated bond-containing polymerizable monomer in xylene insolubles to the mass of the structural units derived from the unsaturated bond-containing polymerizable monomer in the modified flexible polypropylene insulating material is more than 0.1, preferably 0.3-0.9. The modified flexible polypropylene insulating material of the invention can give consideration to both mechanical property and electrical property at a higher working temperature, and is suitable for working conditions of high temperature and high operating field strength.

    摘要: The present invention is a process to produce Z-Chitosan to provide consistent and long-lasting antimicrobial, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-spore, and anti-odor characteristics, the process comprises steps of preparing a liquid active agent comprising 50 ppm to 5,000 ppm aqueous solution of each of a Chitosan group, a herbal extract group, and a catalyst group using an emulsion crosslinking method for 24 to 144 hours at normal room conditions; preparing a powder form of the active agent by drying the liquid active agent; encapsulating the powder form of the active agent within a plastic, a polymer, a fabric to make a masterbatch of the product, and finally blending 1 to 10 percent of the masterbatch with a batch of plastic, polymer, or fabric to make an antimicrobial product, whereby the product shows antimicrobial and self-sanitizing efficacy for contact time between 2 hours to 24 hours and maintains its antimicrobial efficacy in the scale of years in different environment conditions.
