  • Composition for filling cables
    Patent number: 4110137
    Abstract: A composition useful for filling communication cables is described which comprises petroleum jelly and a small amount of siliceous material which renders the petroleum jelly viscous at elevated temperatures, and prevents leakage of the petroleum jelly from a cable having a flaw, which is subjected to elevated temperatures; the composition is particularly useful in communication cables having cellularly insulated conductors where migration of the flowable filler composition into the cellular insulation is diminished.
