Abstract

A capillary viscometric procedure was developed for measuring the viscosity of formulations based on oligourethane acrylates for UV-curable protective coatings of fiber light guides. The temperature dependences of the viscosities of these formulations were studied. The moduli of elasticity of fibers prepared from these formulations after UV curing were measured. These formulations can be stably applied, using a die, to the surface of fiber light guides in the course of their drawing at a drawing rate of up to 100-120 m min-1.
