Abstract
In a method of producing an extruded, cross-linked cable coating of filled polyethylene wherein the extruder is charged with commingled polyethylene pellets and filler-EPR masterbatch pellets containing a peroxide cross-linking agent, the peroxide is incorporated in the masterbatch pellets by application to and absorption in the pellets during advance of the pellets to the extruder, while the pellets are continuously maintained at an elevated temperature for preventing bleed-out of absorbed peroxide.
