Zusammenfassung:Disclosed are polymeric compositions suitable for use as cable jackets. The polymeric compositions include a polymer component and, optionally, one or more additives. The polymer component consists of an ethylene-based polymer and an olefin block copolymer. The polymer component has a tensile elasticity (G′) of less than 1,200 MPa when measured at −40° C., a tensile elasticity (G′) below 400 MPa when measured at 20° C., a tensile strength greater than 1,000 psi, and an elongation at break greater than 800%.
