Abstract

The invention relates to a Radiation Curable Secondary Coating composition for use on an Optical Fiber. The Radiation Curable Secondary Coating composition is a urethane-free Alpha Oligomer prepared by reaction of the following: (a) an acrylate compound selected from an alcohol-containing acrylate or alcohol-containing methacrylate compound, (b) an anhydride compound, (c) an epoxy-containing compound, (d) optionally an extender compound, and (e) optionally a catalyst. The invention also relates to a coated wire and to a coated optical fiber.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This patent application claims priority to co-pending U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 874,723, “D Radiation Curable Secondary Coating for Optical Fiber”, filed Dec. 14, 2006, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 874,720, “R Radiation Curable Secondary Coating for Optical Fiber”, filed Dec. 14, 2006, co-pending U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 874,730, “Supercoatings for Optical Fiber”, filed Dec. 14, 2006, which are all incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates generally to Radiation Curable Secondary Coatings suitable for use on Optical Fibers. More particularly the present invention relates to Optical fiber Secondary Coating compositions that include a urethane-free oligomer, and to optical fibers coated with such secondary compositions.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Optical fibers are frequently coated with two or more superposed radiation-curable coating...
