The implementations herein will be better understood from the following description with reference to the
10 drawings.
[0027] FIG. 1 illustrates structure of an environmentally-friendly electric cable (1), according to embodiment as disclosed herein. The environmentally-friendly electric cable (1) includes a conductor layer (2), an insulation layer (3), a protective layer (4), an inner sheath layer (5), an armor layer (6), and an outer sheath layer (7).
15 [0028] The proposed environmentally-friendly electric cable (1) is a type of cable
that is designed to be more sustainable and less harmful to the environment than the existing cables. The proposed cable (1) typically has the conductor layer (2) that is responsible for carrying the electrical current. The conductor layer (2) is made from a single annealed bare core copper (8) or a flexible bare core copper (8).
20 [0029] The copper core described herein is the central component of the cable and
serves as the main pathway for the electrical signal. This type of copper is considered environmentally-friendly because it is less likely to release harmful chemicals or pollutants into the environment during the manufacturing process or when the cable is in use.
25 [0030] The single annealed bare core copper (8) is a solid copper wire that has been
heat-treated to increase its strength and durability. This type of copper core is ideal for applications that require a high level of conductivity and reliability, such as power transmission and distribution. The single annealed bare core copper (8) is made of the single solid copper wire with no insulation or coating. The copper wire
30 is annealed, which means it has been heated and then slowly cooled to make it softer
and more malleable. This makes it easier to work with and bend into the desired shape for use in electrical applications. The term "bare" means that the copper wire is not coated or covered in any way, which allows for better electrical conductivity.

This type of conductor is commonly used in electrical wiring for homes, buildings,
and other structures, as well as in electrical equipment and appliances. The single
annealed bare core copper (8) has high electrical conductivity, durability, and
resistance to corrosion.
5 [0031] On the other hand, the flexible bare core copper (8) refers to a type of copper
wire that is designed to be highly flexible and durable. The wire is made from a single strand of pure copper that has been stripped of any insulation or coating, leaving it bare. The core of the wire is also designed to be highly flexible, allowing it to bend and twist without breaking or losing its shape. This makes it ideal for use
10 in applications where the wire will be subjected to repeated bending or flexing, such
as in robotics, automation, and other industrial settings. The flexible bare core copper (8) wire is also highly conductive, making it an excellent choice for use in electrical applications. Its pure copper construction ensures that it has low resistance, allowing it to efficiently transmit electrical signals and power.
15 Additionally, the lack of insulation or coating on the wire allows for easy soldering
and termination, making it a versatile and easy-to-use option for a wide range of applications.
[0032] The insulation layer (3) is surrounded over the conductor layer (2). The insulation layer (3) is made of an environment-friendly Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
20 insulation material. The insulation layer (3) is a protective layer that is used to cover
the conductor layer (1). The purpose of the insulation layer (3) is to prevent electrical current from flowing through the metal conductor and causing an electrical hazard. The insulation layer (3) is usually made of a non-conductive material that has a high resistance to electrical current. In the proposed invention,
25 the insulation layer (3) is made of the PVC insulation material, which is an
environment-friendly material.
[0033] The insulation layer (3) is made of the PVC insulation material, which is a type of plastic that is known for its durability and resistance to heat and chemicals. Additionally, the PVC insulation material is an environment-friendly material that
30 is free from harmful chemicals, making it a safe choice for use in electrical
applications. In an embodiment, the environment-friendly PVC insulation material is RoHS and REACH compliant. The RoHS is a European Union directive that restricts the use of certain hazardous materials in electrical and electronic

equipment. Compliance with RoHS ensures that the PVC insulation material does
not contain substances such as lead, mercury, and cadmium, which can be harmful
to human health and the environment. The REACH, on the other hand, stands is a
regulation that aims to improve the protection of human health and the environment
5 from the risks that can be posed by chemicals. Compliance with REACH ensures
that the PVC insulation material is safe for use and does not contain harmful chemicals that can cause harm to humans or the environment.
[0034] In an embodiment, the environment-friendly PVC insulation material includes at least one of a K-70 PVC resin, a calcium carbonate, a Trioctyl
10 trimellitate, a polestar 450, calcium zinc stabilizer, calcium stearate, a stearic acid,
an irganox 1010, and a PE-Wax.
[0035] The K-70 PVC resin is a type of PVC resin that is known for its high molecular weight and excellent mechanical properties. The calcium carbonate is a naturally occurring mineral that is often used as a filler in PVC products to reduce
15 their environmental impact. The Trioctyl trimellitate is a plasticizer that is often
used in PVC products to improve their flexibility. The Polestar 450 calcium zinc stabilizer is a type of stabilizer that is used to prevent the PVC from degrading over time. Further, the contains calcium stearate and stearic acid are both commonly used as lubricants in PVC products to improve their processing and handling
20 characteristics. The Irganox 1010 and PE-Wax are both antioxidants that help to
protect the PVC from degradation due to heat and light exposure.
[0036] In an embodiment, the K-70 PVC resin is in 100 PHR, the calcium carbonate is in a range of 20-30 PHR, the Trioctyl trimellitate is in a range of 40-50 PHR, the polestar 450 is in a range of 5-15 PHR, the calcium zinc stabilizer is in a range of
25 5-15 PHR, the calcium stearate is in a range of 1-2 PHR, the stearic acid is in a
range of 1-2 PHR, the irganox 1010 is in the range of 0.1-0.8 PHR, and the PE-Wax is in a range of 1-2 PHR.
[0037] In an embodiment, the PVC insulation material is an irradiated crosslinking low-smoke polyethylene material when the conductor layer (2) comprises the single
30 annealed bare core copper (8) or a PVC insulation material that withstand
temperatures up to 105 degrees Celsius when the conductor layer (2) comprises the flexible bare core copper (8).

[0038] The irradiated crosslinking low-smoke polyethylene material is a type of
polyethylene that has been treated with radiation to improve its mechanical and
electrical properties. This material is preferred in applications where fire safety is a
concern as it produces low amounts of smoke when burned. On the other hand, the
5 PVC insulation material is a type of plastic material that is commonly used in
electrical wiring and cables. It is known for its durability and ability to withstand high temperatures of up to 105 degrees Celsius.
[0039] The choice of insulation material depends on the specific application requirements. For instance, the irradiated crosslinking low-smoke polyethylene
10 material is preferred in applications where fire safety is a concern such as in public
buildings and transportation systems and the conductor layer (1) is made of the annealed bare core copper (8). On the other hand, the PVC insulation material is commonly used in industries such as automotive and aerospace where high-temperature resistance is required and the conductor layer (1) is made of the flexible
15 bare core copper (8).
[0040] The protective layer (4) is surrounded over the insulation layer (3). The protective layer (4) is a layer that is added on top of the insulation layer (3) to provide an additional layer of protection. The purpose of the protective layer (4) is to prevent damage to the insulation layer from external factors such as weather,
20 physical impact, or chemical exposure. By adding this layer, the lifespan of the
insulation layer (3) is extended, and the overall performance of the product is enhanced.
[0041] In one embodiment, the protective layer (4) is a tape. This tape can be made from a variety of materials, including but not limited to, polyethylene,
25 polypropylene, or PVC. The tape is applied to the insulation layer using an adhesive
or heat-sealing process. The tape provides a barrier between the insulation layer and the external environment, protecting the insulation from damage. The tape can also be designed to provide additional benefits, such as UV resistance, abrasion resistance, or flame retardancy.
30 [0042] The inner sheath layer (5) is surrounded over the insulation layer (3). In the
electrical cable (1), the inner sheath layer (5) is a protective layer that is placed over the insulation layer (3) of the cable. This layer serves to provide an extra layer of protection to the cable, shielding it from any external damage that could be caused

by factors such as moisture, chemicals, or abrasion. The inner sheath layer (1) is
typically made of materials that are resistant to these external factors, ensuring that
the cable remains protected and functional for a longer period of time.
[0043] In the proposed invention, the inner sheath layer (5) is made of an
5 environment-friendly PVC sheathing material. This means that the material used to
make the inner sheath layer (5) is free from harmful chemicals and substances that could pose a risk to the environment or to human health. This is an important consideration, particularly in today's world where sustainability and environmental protection are becoming increasingly important. By using an environment-friendly
10 material for the inner sheath layer (5), the cable manufacturer is able to create a
product that is not only functional and reliable, but also environmentally responsible.
[0044] The armor layer (6) is surrounded over the inner sheath layer (5). In an embodiment, the armor layer (6) is made of galvanized steel round wire. The armor
15 layer (6) refers to a layer of material that is placed around the inner sheath layer (5)
of the wire cable (1). The armor layer (6) refers provides additional protection to the cable (1), making it more durable and resistant to damage.
[0045] In an embodiment, the armor layer (6) is made of galvanized steel round wire. Galvanization is a process in which a protective layer of zinc is applied to
20 steel to prevent rusting and corrosion. The use of galvanized steel round wire for
the armor layer (6) provides an added layer of protection against damage from environmental factors such as moisture and corrosion, making the cable or wire more reliable and long-lasting. [0046] The outer sheath layer (7) is surrounded over the inner sheath layer (5). The
25 outer sheath layer (7) is made of the environment-friendly PVC sheathing material.
The environment-friendly PVC sheathing material is also RoHS and REACH complaint. In the proposed electrical cable (1), the outer sheath layer (7) refers to the outermost layer that covers and protects the cable's inner components. The outer sheath layer (7) is positioned over the inner sheath layer (5), which is closer to the
30 cable's core. The purpose of the outer sheath layer (7) is to provide an additional
layer of protection against environmental factors such as moisture, dust, and abrasion. By surrounding the inner sheath layer, the outer sheath layer ensures that the cable remains safe and durable, even in harsh conditions.

[0047] The outer sheath layer (7) is made of an environment-friendly PVC
sheathing material. This means that the material used to make the outer sheath layer
is designed to minimize any negative impact on the environment. Additionally, the
PVC sheathing material is compliant with the RoHS and REACH regulations.
5 Compliance with these regulations means that the PVC sheathing material used in
the outer sheath layer (7) does not contain any harmful substances that could pose a risk to human health or the environment.
[0048] In an embodiment, the environment-friendly PVC sheathing material comprises at least one of a K-67 PVC resin, an aluminium trihydrate, a zinc borate,
10 an antimony trioxide (ATO), a benzene carboxylic acid ester, an calcium zinc
stabilizer, a stearic acid, a PE-Wax, an irganox 1010, a calcium carbonate, and a calcium stearate. The use of this environment-friendly PVC sheathing material is particularly important in industries that require the use of cables and wires, such as the construction and electronics industries. By using a material that is non-toxic and
15 environmentally safe, companies can reduce their impact on the environment and
meet regulatory requirements. Additionally, this material is designed to be durable and long-lasting, providing a reliable and cost-effective solution for cable and wire protection. [0049] In an embodiment, the K-67 PVC resin is 100 PHR, the aluminium
20 trihydrate is in a range of 50-70 PHR, the zinc borate is in a range of 10-20 PHR,
the ATO is in a range of 0.5-2 PHR, the benzene carboxylic acid ester is in a range of 40-50 PHR, the calcium zinc stabilizer is in a range of 2-8 PHR, the stearic acid is in a range of 1-2 PHR, the PE-Wax is in a range of 1-2 PHR, the irganox 1010 is in a range of 0.1-0.8 PHR, the calcium carbonate is in a range of 10-30 PHR, and
25 the calcium stearate is in a range of 1-2 PHR.
[0050] In an embodiment, the environment-friendly PVC insulation material and the environment-friendly PVC sheathing material phthalate free, lead free, heavy metals free and free of harmful chemicals. This means that the materials used in the insulation and sheathing of the cable (1) are not made with chemicals that are known
30 to be harmful to human health or the environment. By using environment-friendly
PVC insulation and sheathing materials that are free of these harmful chemicals, the cable (1) is safer for users and better for the environment.

[0051] Unlike conventional cables, the proposed cable (1) is designed to be
