摘要:
Optical cable, in particular for submarine connections. A water blocking resin filling composition of reduced hardness is disposed into interstices. Preferably, the resin composition is a polyurethane resin having less than about 35% by weight of a polyol/polyisocyanate mixture and about 60% to about 90% by weight of a mineral oil. The polyurethane resin preferably has less than about 12% by weight of a coupling agent. The cable has an optical core surrounded by a plurality of metallic wires and an outer polymeric sheath. The optical core is of the “tight” type with a plurality of optical fibers embedded into a polymeric matrix disposed around a strength member.
摘要:
The present invention relates to copolyethers comprising copolymers of 7,oxa-bicyclo(2,2,1)heptane, and its alkyl-derivatives, with one or more single-ring or condensed-rings cycloaliphatic ethers, comprising the characteristic group; ##STR1## wherein R' is hydrogen and R" is H, a halogen, or an alkyl radical containing a small number of carbon atoms, and which may also be halogen-substituted.If the ether contains one ring only, it contains from 5 to 12 atoms in the ring, and if it contains a condensed-ring system, it contains a total number of from 10 to 18 atoms in the rings.Those copolyethers show a anisotropic behaviour in the molten state, and therefore have liquid-crystal properties.
