    Abstract: In the process for applying a protective plastic coating to a glass optical waveguide fiber by the app lication of a curable liquid coating material thereto and the subsequent curing of the liquid coating to a protective plastic layer, the surface of the glass optical fiber is conditioned prior to the application of the liquid coating material thereto by replacing air adjacent the fiber surface with a selected gas preferably exhibiting high solubility in the liquid coating composition and resisting bubble formation in the liquid coating layer as it is formed.

    Abstract: The present invention describes an extrusion process for manufacturing a titanium-containing silicate glass honeycomb structure, having a variety of shapes and sizes depending on its ultimate application. The titanium-containing glass honeycomb has a very low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and the CTE can be varied by adjusting the titanium level to match the CTE of members that are bonded to the honeycomb. Furthermore, the inventive honeycomb structure is lightweight, yet able to support heavy loads on its end faces. Therefore, the inventive honeycomb can be advantageously used as a light-weight support for such objects as mirrors. Especially contemplated is using these inventive honeycomb supports for mirrors used in extraterresial environments where temperature extremes are present. These honeycombs can be used singularly or in aggregates to provide such support. Embodiments are described wherein the mass of the honeycomb is further reduced by removing select portions of the honeycomb without deleteriously impacting its ability for load bearing.

    Abstract: Optical communication media particularly adapted for blow-in installation, including single optical fibers and lightweight flexible optical cables comprising one or more glass optical fibers in a multilayer polymer coating, are disclosed. The multilayer coating includes a textured polymer outer layer and at least one soft buffer layer positioned between the textured polymer outer layer and the glass optical fiber or fibers, the buffer layer comprising a low Tg polymer and preferably having a layer thickness at least sufficient to maintain thermally induced microbending loss in the optical communication medium below about 0.5 db/km at medium operating temperatures in the range of 0 .degree.C to -60 .degree.C.

    Abstract: The present invention describes an extrusion process for manufacturing a titanium-containing silicate glass honeycomb structure (100), having a variety of shapes and sizes depending on its ultimate application. The titanium-containing glass honeycomb has a very low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and the CTE can be varied by adjusting the titanium level to match the CTE of members that are bonded to the honeycomb. Furthermore, the inventive honeycomb structure is lightweight, yet able to advantageously used as a light-weight support for such objects as mirrors. Especially extraterrestrial environments where temperature extremes are present. These honeycombs can be used singularly or in aggregates to provide such support.

    Abstract translation: 本发明描述了根据其最终应用,具有各种形状和尺寸的含钛硅酸盐玻璃蜂窝结构体(100)的制造挤出方法。 含钛玻璃蜂窝体具有非常低的热膨胀系数(CTE),并且通过调节钛水平以匹配结合到蜂窝体的构件的CTE可以改变CTE。 此外,本发明的蜂窝结构是轻质的,但是能够有利地用作诸如镜子之类的物体的轻质支撑。 特别是出现极端温度的地球外环境。 这些蜂蜜可以单独使用或以聚集体形式提供这种支持。 描述了通过除去蜂窝的选择部分而进一步减小蜂窝体的质量的实施例,而不会有害地影响其承载能力。
