Glow
in the Dark Powder - Photo Luminous Glow Powder
Glow in the Dark Powder or photo luminous Glow Pigment as it is sometimes
called, is the raw material used in the manufacture of all glow
in the dark products. We carry the full range of glow in the dark
powder pigments. This range is divided into different grades according
to glowing brightness, length of glow and color of glow. Our range
starts from the lowest grade (20 minutes), to the highest grade, which can glow
for more than 15 hours. There are no higher grades than this, at
present.
This
glow in the dark powder pigment works by absorbing and releasing light energy, in a continuous
cycle. When the surrounding is bright, it absorbs light energy and
releases this light energy when it is dark.
Glow
in the dark Powder can be re-charged many times over just by exposing it to
any light source, preferably those with Ultra Violet rays like sunlight
or UV (black lights). Glow Powder on its own, has a shelf life of
more than 10 years.
Glow
powder is used for the production of other raw materials or products
like:
Glow Paint and Inks for brush painting,
spray painting, printing, etc...
Luminous Sticker for signage, decoration, path markers, etc..
Plastic Masterbatch Pellets for the production of glow in the
dark plastic products
Luminous Thread and Fibre for the production
of glow cloth, ropes, carpets, etc..
The most
common use of glow powder is to produce glow
in the dark paint. This is pretty straight forward as you just
have to mix the powder and paint and start painting. As easy as
it may sound, some experience and know how is required. The Twilight
Glow Paint kit was created for this purpose. It contains the tools and instructions to guide you in the correct method of glow painting.
As mentioned
above, glow powder can be used in a wide spectrum of other applications
like plastic, glass, thread,
etc...
