Abstract :
Hydrogen quantities generated by chemical decomposition of silicone resin, which is used for optical-fibre coating material, have been measured. The saturated hydrogen quantity and reaction rate for the hydrogen generation are evaluated from the measurement results. Effective methods for suppression of the hydrogen quantity are also proposed.
