Filling compound for fiber optical cables

Disclosed are hydrophobic compositions useful for filling the voids within jacketed optical fiber cables. The compositions include about 85 to 95 parts by weight of mineral oil, 5 to 15 parts by weight of a (styrene)-(ethylene/propylene) diblock copolymer having a styrene: (ethylene/propylene) ratio...

Zusammenfassung:	Disclosed are hydrophobic compositions useful for filling the voids within jacketed optical fiber cables. The compositions include about 85 to 95 parts by weight of mineral oil, 5 to 15 parts by weight of a (styrene)-(ethylene/propylene) diblock copolymer having a styrene: (ethylene/propylene) ratio of 37.5:62.5 to 27.5:72.5 and a specific gravity of about 0.90 to 0.95, optional antioxidant, and optional metal deactivator.
