A wet-on-dry process for coating a glass optical fiber with a Radiation Curable Secondary Coating, comprising (a) operating a glass drawing tower to produce a glass optical fiber; (b) applying a radiation curable primary coating composition onto the surface of the optical fiber; (c) applying radiation to effect curing of said radiation curable primary coating composition; (d) applying a Radiation Curable Secondary Coating to the radiation curable primary coating; and (e) applying radiation to effect curing of said Radiation Curable Secondary Coating. Also, a wet-on-wet process for coating a glass optical fiber with a Radiation Curable Secondary Coating, comprising (a) operating a glass drawing tower to produce a glass optical fiber; (b) applying a radiation curable primary coating composition onto the surface of the optical fiber; (c) applying a Radiation Curable Secondary Coating to the radiation curable primary coating; and (d) applying radiation to effect curing of the radiation curable primary coating and the Radiation Curable Secondary Coating. |
