Abstract
A conductor wire is extrusion coated with a polyethylene resin containing a copolymer comprising predominantly ethylene and an unsaturated silane compound having the formula R Si R'.sub.n Y.sub.3-n, wherein: R is an ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbyl group or hydrocarbyloxy group; R' is an aliphatic saturated hydrocarbyl group; Y is a hydrolyzable organic group; and n is zero, 1, or 2, thereby to fabricate a coated wire which is then caused to contact water in the presence of a silanol condensation catalyst in a crosslinking process step.
