A fast-curing, low viscosity composition for coating an optical waveguide, more specifically, an optical fiber, and optical fibers coated therewith are disclosed. The coating composition is a radiation curable composition containing: a radiation curable oligomer, a free radical photoinitiator, and a mixture of reactive diluents including a low molecular weight (meth)acrylate having tri-, tetra-, penta- or higher functionality. |
