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.
They offer greater gel resistance, reducing
migration over time and expanding the lifetime
value of the cable.
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.
