Wire Compound And Cable Compound Market Challenges
Increasing Concern Towards Health and Environment
Halogenated polymers such as polyvinyl chloride cables are an ideal solution for electrical cables as they are cost-effective but polyvinyl chloride compounds are not biodegradable. These remain as waste in the environment for a long time. Polyvinyl chloride contains a large amount of chlorine. When chlorine is burning it produced a large amount of smoke which causes suffocation in public areas. Polyvinyl chloride produces some carcinogens and hydrochloric gas, which are harmful to the environment. Thus, in May 2021, Canada started regulating PVC plastic as a toxic substance. This is one of the major challenges faced by the wire compound and cable compound industry.
