    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a flooding composition. In an embodiment, the flooding composition includes in weight percent (wt%) based on the weight of the composition (A) from 20 wt% to 40 wt% of a polyolefin component comprising (i) a first amorphous polyolefin (APO), and (ii) a second APO different than the first APO. The flooding composition also includes (B) from 30 wt% to 60 wt% of a bio-based oil; and (C) from 15 wt% to 45 wt% of a polysiloxane.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a process. In an embodiment, the process includes blending a broad molecular weight distribution (MWD) ethylene-based polymer having an 121/12 ratio from 55 to 85 with a narrow MWD ethylene-based polymer having an 121/12 ratio from 20 to 50. The process includes forming a blend component comprising from 20 wt% to 45 wt% of the broad MWD ethylene-based polymer, from 80 wt% to 55 wt% of the narrow MWD ethylene-based polymer, and optional carbon black. The blend component has a density from 0.925 g/cc to 0.955 g/cc and an 121/12 ratio from 30 to 55. The process includes extruding the blend component over a conductor at a rate greater than 1.02 m/s, and forming a conductor jacket having a surface smoothness from 30 µ-inch to 80 µ-inch.
