Definitions
- the invention relates to a steel wire rope comprising a fiber core element and an outer strand layer.
- core plays the role of supporting the outer strand layer of steel wire rope, keeping rope structural integrity, improving the flexibility of the wire rope.
- the core can store lubricant, thus keep the outer strand layer lubricated to reduce friction, abrasion and corrosion.
- Fiber rope made from natural plant fibers including hard fibers (e.g. Manila hemp, etc.) and soft fibers (sesame, sisal, cotton yarn, etc.) are widely used as the cores in the manufacture of steel wire ropes.
- One of the common disadvantage of natural fiber cores is its poor resistance corrosion due in wet environments.
- Organic cellulose a common building block of natural fiber core has strong water absorption ability and thus easily deteriorate and lose the original performance properties such as radial stiffness. If the rope core has poor resistance to crushing, the outer strand layer becomes unstable and the contact stress between adjacent strands will increase causing the steel wires to wear and eventually break.
- the hygroscopicity of fiber core will further increase the moisture content within the rope causing corrosion of the steel wires in the steel wire rope. Such corrosion will intensify the brittleness of the steel wire and lower the tensile strength of the steel wire rope. This would shorten the service life of the wire rope.
- the rope core is commonly made from synthetic fiber instead of natural plant fiber.
- sisal rope is widely used as core for steel wire ropes in some industrial and agricultural production. It has characteristics that are not possessed by synthetic fiber rope core and is irreplaceable in some industries.

In such rope constructions, the ropes are made up of strands. The strands are made up of rope yarns, which contain natural plant fibers. Methods of forming yarns from fiber, strands from yarn and ropes from strands are known in the art.
- the natural plant fiber rope can be preconditioned before further processing through e.g. pre-stretching, annealing, heat setting or compacting.

- the zinc alloy coating may further have a wetting agent such as lanthanum or cerium in an amount less than 0.1 wt % of the zinc alloy.
- the remainder of the coating is zinc and unavoidable impurities.
- Another preferable composition contains about 10 % aluminum. This increased amount of aluminum provides a better corrosion protection than the eutectoid composition with about 5 wt % of aluminum.
- Other elements such as silicon and magnesium may be added to the zinc aluminum coating. More preferably, with a view to optimizing the corrosion resistance, a particular good alloy comprises 2 % to 10 % aluminum and 0.2 % to 3.0 % magnesium, the remainder being zinc.
- the sheathed polymer on the core element can be any thermoplastic polymers.
- it can be selected from Arnitel®, Hytrel®, Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene, (PP), Polyurethane (PU) or Polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
- the core element can be coated with a polymer having copolyester elastomer containing soft blocks in the range of 10 to 70 wt %.
- the hardness Shore D of the copolyester elastomer as measured according to ISO 868 is larger than 50.
- the copolyester elastomer contains soft blocks in the range of 10 to 40 wt %.
- the copolyester elastomer contains soft blocks in the range of 20 to 30 wt %. In a most preferred embodiment, the copolyester elastomer contains 25 wt % soft blocks.
- the modulus and the hardness of the copolyester elastomer depend on the type and concentration of soft blocks in the copolyester elastomer. The advantage of using the copolyester elastomer containing soft and hard blocks in the manufacture of steel wire rope is that a hard transition layer established in-between the core and the outer layer. Less concentration of soft blocks in the copolyester elastomer can make the elastomer harder.
- copolyester elastomer layer between the core and outer steel layer improves the fatigue resistance of the steel wire.
- copolyester elastomer containing soft blocks is compatible with the inner fiber core element and the outer layer.
- the material has outstanding resistance to flexural and bending fatigue both at high temperatures and sub-zero temperatures. This makes it particular suitable for applications such as crane ropes, which are subjected to a wide range of temperatures and also encounter very high levels of flexural fatigue and compression.
- the copolyester elastomer is a copolyesterester elastomer, a copolycarbonateester elastomer, and /or a copolyetherester elastomer; i.e. a copolyester block copolymer with soft blocks consisting of segments of polyester, polycarbonate or, respectively, polyether.
- Suitable copolyesterester elastomers are described, for example, in EP-0102115-B1 .
- Suitable copolycarbonateester elastomers are described, for example, in EP-0846712-B1 .
- Copolyester elastomers are available, for example, under the trade name Arnitel®, from DSM Engineering Plastics B.V. The Netherlands.
- copolyester elastomer is a copolyetherester elastomer.
- the sheathed core element of the invention steel wire rope can be compressed by the outer layer.
- the sheath also protects the core fibers from damage during rope closing compression.
- the sheathed core element may go in between the steel wire strands of the outer layer and have a natural star shape in cross-section or helical flute shape in three dimensions. The natural star shape in cross-section of the core element can be kept during the lifetime of the steel wire rope.
- a method of manufacturing a steel wire rope comprising the steps of:
- the extruding in step (b) is preferably a - jacket extrusion.
- the extruded polymer can be selected from Arnitel®, Hytrel®, Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene (PP), Polyurethane (PU) or Polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
- the sheath should have good impermeable property. Moreover, the sheath on the core is desirable to survive during the lifetime of the rope. Due to the abrasion of the core element with the outer steel wire strands, the thickness of the sheath is preferably in a range from 0.2 to 2 mm and more preferably in a range from 0.5 to 1 mm.
- the extrusion process used to form the polymer sheath on the natural plant fiber core element is preferably a well-designed and concentric jacket extrusion.
- the advantage of applying jacket extrusion is to ensure a uniform and consistent thickness of the polymer layer around the fiber core element and along the length of the core, as the shape and diameter of a fiber core is less stable under tension than steel wire ropes.
- the applied temperature of molten polymer and residence time of fiber core to elevated temperature during the jacket extrusion process should be affordable to the natural plant fiber, thus avoiding the risk of burning of the natural plant fiber core element.
- the technique involves passing the fiber core through an extrusion head whilst overlaying the polymer over the fiber core at a predetermined draw down ratio and optimized line speed to result in a tight and concentric jacket over the fiber core.
- step (c) said core element can undergo compression during rope closing such that said core element takes a natural star shape in cross-section or helical flute shape in three dimensions after rope closing.

- the triangular wire strand 16 has a K3/9-12-15 structure.
- the four layers of the outer steel wire strand 16 are preferably-twisted in the same direction, i.e. if it is a right hand rope, the 9 over 3, 12 over (3-9) and the 15 over 12 are all right hand (Z), so the rope is a Lang's lay rope.
- a twisted 3 strands sisal rope 12 is used as the core of the steel wire rope.
