SOCO® Polymer for Cable Application

Water Swellable Tape are designed to prevent water ingress into fibre optic, copper data/telecom and power cables. Using super absorbent polymers (SAP) gives these tapes premium performance during the critical first minute of response to water.Gel ice pack can also be the better choice for cold-chain transportation of food & medicine since it can provide the proper low temperature without melting water running around. It is also reusable and anti-bacteria.

Water-Blocking Powder is a kind of super absorbent polymer made of sodium polyacrylate. This kind of water blocking powder will be swelling to block the gap and preventing further water penetration.

SOCO cable water blocking polymer is one kind of super absorbent polymer which is sodium polyacrylate. It has better water absorbent capacity and harmless.

Sodium polyacrylate, also known as waterlock, is a sodium salt of polyacrylic acid with the chemical formula [−CH2−CH(CO2Na)−]n and has broad applications in consumer products. This super-absorbent polymer (SAP) has the ability to absorb 100 to 1000 times its mass in water.

Water Swellable Tape are designed to prevent water ingress into fibre optic, copper data/telecom and power cables. The SAP is laminated and evenly distributed between various non-woven materials so that all the SAP contributes efficiently to the water blocking properties of the tape.

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated, locked store room away from incompatible materials. Use ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below exposure limits.
