Summary: | The invention relates to a cable comprising layer(s), which layer(s), is/are obtained from a polymer composition, wherein the polymer composition comprises a polyethylene and a crosslinking agent, wherein the polymer composition contains a total amount of vinyl groups which is B vinyl groups per 1000 carbon atoms, and B1≤B, wherein B1 is 0.88, when measured prior to crosslinking according to method ASTM D6248-98; and wherein the crosslinking agent is present in an amount which is Z wt %, prior to crosslinking, based on the total amount (100 wt %) of the polymer composition, and Z≤Z2, wherein Z2 is 0.60, the cable, e.g. being a power cable, and processes for producing the cable; the cable useful in different end applications, such as wire and cable (W&C) applications. |
