FiberLogix Launches Range of Polyimide Coated Fibers

Watford, UK June 16, 2006- FiberLogix a leading manufacturer of Specialty Fibers, announced today the latest in its range of Optical Fibers- Polyimide Coated Fiber. The company has introduced a range of Polyimide coated fibers for applications in Oil and Gas, Aerospace, Sensors, Defence, Medical and Security. The new fibers offer wide operating temperature range from -65 to 400oC, with long term operation at 360o C in harsh operating environment.

 Typically, the Polyimide coated fibers available in the market are manufactured by a single polymer with many thin layers to form overall coating. However, FiberLogix uses two proprietary Polymers to form dual layers on the fiber glass cladding. The inner soft material protects the fiber from microbend forces and offers good adhesion to the glass cladding. The outer thin layer is hard and provides abrasion resistance and minimizes friction.  

 Due to its dual layer configuration and proprietary polymers, it is best suited for the applications where high strength and low bending loss is required such as strain, health and pressure monitoring in structural, geophysical and medical sensing. The polyimide coating makes the fiber extremely robust and durable under harsh environments at elevated temperatures.

 The product family consist of Single Mode, compatible to SMF 28, High NA, Multimode both 62.5/125 and 50/125 and 80um fiber. The fiber offers tight and high performance optical and mechanical specifications with tight dimension tolerances. It provides high uniformity and lot-to-lot consistency. FiberLogix is offering these products at very competitive pricing to the market.  The new fibers join the company other fiber products like PEEK coated, High temperature Acrylate and High NA fibers.
