ABSTRACT:
Novel coating compositions for coating optical fibers are provided which utilize ultraviolet radiation-curable epoxy-functional or vinyl-functional diorganopolysiloxanes to form flexible, loosely adherent, and environmentally stable primary coatings. Such coatings assist in preventing attenuation of light impulses transmitted through the core fiber or reduce the level of signal "noise". Use of the particular coating compositions allows high-speed production of such optical fibers.
