A metal conductor is provided with a cured coating of about 2.5 &#x3bc;m to about 500 &#x3bc;m thickness, which cured coating has a dielectric dissipation factor (60 Hz, 24&#xb0; C.) of lower than about 0.05 and is a radiation-cured coating formulated from components comprising: a) an acrylate functional urethane oligomer having a hydrocarbon backbone; b) one or more mono- or polyfunctional diluents; and optionally, c) one or more light sensitive radical generating compounds. The invention further provides a radiation-curable coating composition for coating a metal conductor. Also disclosed is a method of making a metal conductor provided with a cured coating of about 2.5 &#x3bc;m to about 500 &#x3bc;m thickness, which cured coating has a dielectric dissipation factor (60 Hz, 24&#xb0; C.) of lower than about 0.05.

Dielectric, radiation-curable coating compositions

A UV-curable acrylate-thiol-ene insulating coating composition for electrical conductors, a method of manufacturing a UV-curable acrylate-thiol-ene insulating coating composition for electrical conductors. The insulating coating being of about 2.5 &mgr;m to about 500 &mgr;m thickness, which cured coating has a dielectric dissipation factor (60 Hz, 24&deg; C.) of lower than about 0.05.

A UV-curable acrylate base adhesive composition for digital versatile discs and other substrates, a method for bonding verstile digital disc layers together with a UV-curable adhesive, and a digital versatile disc bonded by a UV-curable or a radiation curable adhesive. The adhesive comprises acrylate functional components, non-acrylate reactive diluents (e.g. having acrylamide, or N-vinyl functionality) and thiol compounds.

The present invention relates to optical fiber coatings, inks and matrix material structures such as bundles or ribbons, and methods of curing the same, using low power electron beam radiation. The optical fiber substrate is not substantially degraded following exposure to the low power electron beam radiation during the curing process.
