| Summary: | The present invention relates to curable materials which are derived from (meth)acrylates and alkoxy-substituted organosilanes. A compound containing an alkoxy-substituted organosilane group is covalently attached to a relatively long molecule that has (meth)acrylate functionality. As part of a photo-curable formulation, this long chain provides improved adhesion to glass substrates by covalently tying the polymeric network to the glass substrate.
A composition useful for making a coated optical fiber wherein the composition comprises a photocurable or E-beam curable composition having an alkoxysilane functionality attached through a long backbone. |
