ECCOH™ LSFOH 6153/6154 UV Formulations
Improved processing speeds & greater gel resistance for
optical fiber cables
ECCOH™ LSFOH 6153 UV and 6154 UV grades are
low smoke, fume, non-halogen material solutions
for optical fiber cables with increased processing
speeds and greater resistance to chemicals such
as gel water blocking compounds, used to protect
optical fibers.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Faster processing speeds (up to 1,000
m/min) at low wall thickness (100 µm)
• Increased chemical resistance
• Lower gel migration
• ECCOH 6153 UV - optimized for Teroson
• ECCOH 6154 UV - optimized for Unigel
• High color rendition and compatibility with
Avient masterbatch
• High UV resistance
• Very low shrinkage
MARKET & APPLICATIONS
Optical Fiber Cables including:
• Stranded loose tubes – gel-filled/dry
• Micro-modules
• Tight buffer applications – gel-filled/dry
STANDARD COMPLIANCE
• IEC 60794
• NF XP C93-850-1-1:2020
• EN 50289-4-17:2016
• ISO 4892:2016
• ST/CNET/5843 (1998)
PRODUCT BULLETIN
GEL MIGRATION PERFORMANCE
ECCOH LSFOH 6153/6154 UV grades offer greater gel migration performance compared to alternative
ECCOH grades.
Gel migration is measured using a quantitative internal method
* 6151 can be supplied with UV protection
* Values concluded from the simulation of materials rheological data and modelling standard extrusion tooling
Pressure: can affect extruder performance, higher pressure gives a lower output at the same rpm
Shear rate: has a relation with self-cleaning of the walls and mixing conditions
Stress: can affect the surface of the product, less stress gives a better surface aspect
