Abstract
A corrosion-resistant electric cable has a metallic conductor, a polymeric insulating jacket surrounding the metallic conductor, and a corrosion-inhibiting powder comprised of a hydrophobic material disposed between the metallic conductor and the insulating jacket. The corrosion-inhibiting powder may be comprised of a mixture of a hydrophobic fumed silica powder and a hydrophobic polyethylene powder.
