Photoluminescent Pigment For Glass

Introduction

Photoluminescent glass and mosaic can be made with photoluminescent pigment and ink with cold spray or hot melt process. For cold spray, we recommend pigment with relatively smaller grain size, like class C or D. For hot melt, you can take a look at our MC series pigment with grain size like class B, which is great for using in heat. 

MINHUI's photoluminescent pigment is non-radioactive, non-toxic,very weatherproof, very chemically stable and with a long shelf life of 15 years. After absorbing light for 10-30 minutes, it can continue to emit light for 12 hours in the dark, and the process of light absorption and light emission can be infinitely cycled.Glow in the dark glass made with our pigment has long afterglow, high brightnes and long service life.

Recommendation

MINHUI's MC series photoluminescent pigment is a branch from our MH pigment. MC series pigment is specially developed for firing in high temperature and are perfect for making beautiful glow in the dark glass and ceramics. MC series photoluminescent pigments are made from alkaline earth strontium aluminate, which present themselves in light yellow and whose luminance colors is yellow green or blue-green. This pigment range features high hardness, excellent oxidation resistance under high-temperature, always recommended for ceramic or glass industry which need hard fire.
