AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The composition achieves a secant modulus greater than 600 MPa, elongation at break of at least 10%, and a glass transition temperature greater than 45°C, maintaining mechanical integrity and hydrolytic stability even after aging, thus addressing the limitations of existing coatings.

Problems solved by technology

Polyester polyols in general are susceptible to hydrolysis.
One challenge of using such polyester polyols, is developing compositions whose combination of other physical and chemical properties will result in suitable optical fiber coatings while maintaining the desirable resistance to hydrolysis and hydrophobicity.

Abstract

The invention relates to a radiation curable composition including a polyester urethane (meth)acrylate oligomer prepared from ortho-carboxylic polyester polyols, where the composition, after cure, has a secant modulus greater than about 600 MPa and an elongation at break of at least about 10%. The invention also relates to coated optical fibers and optical fiber ribbon including at least one coating derived from this composition, and to a process of making these coated optical fibers.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The invention relates to coated optical fibers and radiation curable compositions which are suitable for use as a coating layer or coating layers in optical fiber technology, such as secondary coating, ribbon matrix material, bundling material, upjacketing or tight-buffer coating, each of which can be colored or not, or ink coating for optical fibers.DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART[0002]Glass optical fibers are provided with protective coatings immediately after spinning the molten glass. Generally, two coatings are applied, a primary coating of a relatively soft, flexible resin directly on the glass surface, and a harder resin, a secondary coating, on the primary coating. However, it is also possible to use a single coating instead of a primary and a secondary coating. The individual fibers generally are combined in larger structures such as cables. Cables may comprise individual fibers, or fiber ribbon structures. The optical fiber ribbon generally is made f...
