...mostly on interaction with environmental factors. And thus significantly on insulator materials used (and construction quality in general, of course), which condition the interaction with the environment.You can find stuff on longevity and aging on e.g. van den Hul's website (he has extensively studied the subject and claims significant benefits for his own Hulliflex materials and carbon & hybrid conductors). For example on cable orrosion, decline, lifespan, and time stability:

and there are separate papers up there on those insulator & conductor materials as well. All more trustworthy than the speculations and pseudoscience you can generally find on the web.
