Abstract
Compositions useful for coating wire and cable to provide a radiation curable insulation layer are provided. The improved compositions of the invention, when cured, have a balance of properties making them suitable for automotive and appliance wire applications. The compositions are comprised of an ethylene copolymer, a hydrated inorganic filler, an alkoxysilane and a zinc salt of a mercaptobenzimidazole compound.
