MY Polymers Optical Fiber (OF) Coatings are used as a first (primary) coating in specialty optical fibers. Distinguished by their carefully balanced combination of high adhesion to the core, and high modulus, these UV cured coatings are setting new standards.
Our OF-136 (Index=1.36) is used by the majority of specialty optical fibers manufacturers. This product, like some other members of the OF family, includes a proprietary adhesion promoter that dramatically improves adhesion under wet conditions.
Our adhesion promoter was designed to be relatively stable, compared to commercially available adhesion promoters. One major application of OF-136 is for active Erbium Doped fibers used in both Fiber Lasers and in EDFA Optical Amplifiers.
