Why standard PVC fails in the cold<\/h2><p>PVC is flexible only because of its plasticiser. As temperature falls towards the compound&#8217;s glass-transition range, the polymer chains lose mobility and the material turns brittle: bending or impact then produces cracks through the sheath and insulation. Cold-resistant compounds use plasticiser systems that keep the material ductile to much lower temperatures. IEC 60811-1-4 verifies this with cold bending, cold elongation and cold impact tests.<\/p>\n<div class=\"scroll\"><table style=\"min-width:1180px\"><caption>Low-temperature limits by cable variant<\/caption><thead><tr><th>Variant<\/th><th>Fixed min.<\/th><th>Moved min.<\/th><th>Test basis<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>\u00d6PVC-JZ\/OZ standard<\/td><td>\u221240 \u00b0C<\/td><td>\u221215 \u00b0C<\/td><td>Standard PVC<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\u00d6PVC-JZ\/OZ-Y\u00f6 UL\/CSA<\/td><td>\u221240 \u00b0C<\/td><td>\u22125 \u00b0C<\/td><td>Oil-resistant PVC<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>\u00d6PVC-JZ\/OZ ARCTIC +UV<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>\u221260 \u00b0C<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>\u221240 \u00b0C<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>IEC 60811-1-4<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/div><\/section>\n<section id=\"tables\"><h2>5.
