Abstract
A glass fiber for optical transmission comprising a glass fiber having provided thereon a first coating layer of a hardened resin and a second fluorine-containing resin layer formed by extrusion molding is disclosed. At least one of the first and second layers contains an adsorbable solid powder which is capable of adsorbing fluorine gas and/or hydrofluoric acid generated from the fluorine-containing resin during the extrusion molding. The glass fiber has an improved mechanical strength without adversely affecting transmission properties of the glass fiber.
