Noun 1.
 EP ethylene propylene rubber Ethylene propylene rubber (EPR) is an insulation used for high voltage cables. It has improved thermal characteristics over more traditional cables, such as cross-linked polyethylene, enabling a smaller cross sectional area for the same load carrying capacity.  is highlighted in this 24-page, four-color brochure. The combination of two different production processes enables the company to produce a very wide range of EP rubber products from very high molecular weight and high ethylene ethylene (ĕth`əlēn') or ethene (ĕth`ēn), H2C=CH2, a gaseous unsaturated hydrocarbon. It is the simplest alkene.  grades produced in suspension to amorphous, moderate molecular weight grades. Quality is said to be assured.
