Abstract:

VULCAN® XC500 is an easy processing, clean conductive black designed for optimal use in fully-bonded and strippable shields compounds for power cable applications.

VULCAN XC500 is designed to the power cable industry's cable life expectancy of 30 years in mind. The product's low sulfur and low ash content improves cable life expectancy to help minimize costly replacements of failed in-ground cable.

VULCAN XC500 has been technically designed to provide superior overall performance at optimum formulation costs. This Cabot conductive black meets the semicon industry's XC type standards all the time. These specifications are required for semi-conductive compounds to meet the cable standards across the world:
