Abstract: Fiber coatings is important in the field of protecting fibre-optical and stabilizing its transmission performance. It is an indispensable component in the use of optical fiber communication. Various of new fiber coatings have been developed rapidly when the application is widespreading and the application environment becames more complex. Using organic fluorine,organic silicone,polyurethane and epoxy resin on the materials for effective modification is a hotspot research. The utilization of hybrid aggregation method can effectively solve the single mode of polymerization deficiencies in the way of curing. Reviews the recent advance of UV-curable new type of optical fiber coating at home and abroad,and prospects its development.

Key words: UV curing, optical fibre coatings, oligomer, modification
