Photoluminescent products are available in various forms. The majority of the products are made from phosphorescent materials like Strontium Aluminates after treating them with suitable elements like Europium.
Glow in the Dark Pigment or Glow Powder
photoluminescent pigments which is commonly known as ' Glow in the Dark' Powder, is used as the raw material for producing various Glow products like paints, inks, stickers etc.. The pigment can also be mixed with inks, plastic, rubber, silicone, wax, glass, and many other raw materials. Glow Powder can also be used in luminous powder painting.

photoluminescent Films
photoluminescent Films are made of photoluminescent pigments based on alkaline earth aluminate.
'Glow in the dark' PVC Sheets
Glow in the Dark Sheets are basically PVC sheets with photoluminescent paints applied on them. Glow sheet is made from hard PVC boards and is rigid. These Glow-in-the-Dark Polycarbonate Sheets come with a clear topcoat that protects the material from abrasions and resists water, oil, acid, and alkaline materials. The sheets can be printed on using water or solvent-based inks and flexography, offset lithography, screen-printing, or UV-curable ink printing. They can also be laser marked with no pretreatment.
Glow in the dark Reflective Tape
Glow in the dark reflective tape is made from flexible vinyl material, similar to the glow stickers with a layer of reflective strip over it. This tape not only reflects light, it also absorbs light and glows in the dark. This product can glow in the dark after being exposed to light. If it is not exposed to light, it still works in the dark by acting as a reflector. That is, if light were to shine on it, it reflects light and can still be visible in the dark.
Glow in the dark reflective tape is widely used in the safety industry. It can be sewn on jackets, vests and other cloth materials, fitted onto pathways to form a route indicator, stuck onto helmets, bikes, cyclists and more for safety enhancement. This product does not come with adhesive backing.
Glow reflective tape can glow in the dark for periods of 7 hours or more after exposure to light for at least 15 minutes. This product can be used both indoors and outdoors.
photoluminescent substances can be made to various luminous products, which have been broadly applied in such industries as fire protection, place name, home appliance, clock, fishing industry, garment, and craft gift, etc. For example, in the 9.11 accident, the Word Trade Mansion has used the emergent evacuation sign, bar and many luminous products made of light-storage luminous material, which greatly helps the evacuation of persons at that time.
