DeSolite® DP-1032 Primary Optical Fiber Coating, UV Cure (1 kg)
DeSolite® DP-1032 Primary Optical Fiber Coating, UV Cure (1 kg)
Part Number: COV-DP-1032-1KG
The DeSolite® DP-1032 is a next-generation primary optical fiber coating formulated to provide exceptional fiber protection and optical performance in high-speed manufacturing environments. Designed as the inner coating layer of a dual-coating system, DP-1032 helps shield glass fibers from mechanical stresses that can lead to attenuation increases and long-term reliability concerns.
Its advanced low-modulus formulation delivers outstanding resistance to microbending losses, making it well suited for modern telecommunications fibers where signal performance is critical. The coating is engineered to perform effectively in both wet-on-wet and wet-on-dry processing environments, offering manufacturers greater flexibility in production line design and operation.
DP-1032 combines excellent processability with strong mechanical performance, supporting higher draw tower speeds while maintaining coating consistency. Enhanced cavitation resistance and optimized adhesion characteristics further contribute to reliable performance in ribbon fiber, loose-tube cable, and other demanding fiber optic cable constructions.
