Abstract

A radiation curable secondary coating composition for optical fiber is described and claimed. This radiation curable secondary coating composition includes component (A) which is a urethane (meth)acrylate and component (B) which is a (meth)acrylate compound with two or more ethylenically unsaturated groups and one or more bisphenol structures; wherein the content of component (B) in the composition is 60-300 mass parts per 100 mass parts of component (A). The liquid secondary coating has a viscosity at 25° C. of from about 0.1 Pa·s to about 15 Pa·s. Films obtained by curing the liquid radiation curable secondary coating composition of the present invention have a Young's modulus of from about 600 MPa to about 500 MPa and the breaking elongation of the cured film is from about to 5% to about 50%.
