Penetration Routes of Oxygen and Moisture into the Insulation of FR-EPDM Cables for Nuclear Power Plants

The polymeric insulation used in nuclear power plants (NPPs) carries the risk of molecular breakage due to oxidation and hydrolysis in the event of an accident. With this in mind, tubular specimens of flame-retardant ethylene-propylene-diene rubber (FR-EPDM) insulation were obtained by taking conduc...
