Research Summary
Water blocking yarn, also known as water-swellable yarn or water-blocking tape, is a specialized type of yarn or tape used in the construction of underground cables, particularly fiber optic cables and power cables, to provide water-blocking and moisture protection. These yarns are typically composed of super-absorbent polymer materials that have the ability to swell and expand when in contact with water, creating a barrier that prevents water ingress into the cable core. Water blocking yarns are strategically positioned within cable constructions, such as between cable components or around individual fibers or conductors, to seal potential points of water entry and protect the cable from moisture damage. By effectively blocking water intrusion, water blocking yarns help maintain the integrity and performance of underground cables, reducing the risk of signal attenuation, electrical faults, and cable degradation caused by water exposure. They are essential components in ensuring the long-term reliability and durability of underground cable installations in various industries, including telecommunications, utilities, and infrastructure.
