PPSB-101LB One pound Turquoise Glow in the Dark Pigments

Part Number PPSB-101LB is a pound of invisible turquoise glow in the dark powdered pigment.

The PPSB-10 and PPSB-06 have long glow times. Especially when compared earlier phosphorescent colorants. These are very stable compounds, with high durability and long shelf life. All of the glow in the dark pigments are crystalline in nature so mix or stir as little as possible.  Our PSB-101LB is designed to be safe for you to use when used in normal applications. The turquoise, nor any of our glow colors, contains no radioactive or toxic materials. T

he PPSB-101LB is very strong with long glowing capabilities when used properly. This pigment, along with our PPSB-06 is one of the strongest pigments on the market today. Both of these can glow for more than 100 hours on a single charge and are rechargeable. Our PPSB-10 Invisible Turquoise phosphorescent pigment was developed to go into non water based mediums only. You can use the pigment in water based medium for a short period of time, such as mixing and then using. Do not use in a water based medium for any length of time or might experience a 20% glow loss. Phosphorescent pigment is the basic building block for material that glows in the dark.

Why Does Risk Reactor Inc. Glow Time Chart Measured in mcd/m2?

The afterglow brightness is measured under D65 standard light source excited by 1000 lux for 10 minutes. The excitation wavelength is 253.7 nm. The instrument to determine brightness LS-100. As a general rule, the larger the particle size the greater and longer the glow. The threshold of the human eye to detect light is .32 mcd/m2 with a dark adapted eye.

How to Use Risk Reactor Inc.'s PPSB-101LB invisible turquoise phosphorescent colorants?

This product is easy to work with. Simply mix it with a clear medium such as clear paint, clear glue, clear wax, etc. and you will have a glowing material! Follow the guidelines below to ensure you maximize the glowing effectiveness of our product. Every project is unique and some applications are not suitable for any glow in the dark pigment. Other applications are perfect. For longest glowing use the PPSB-06 and the fast glow PPZNBB-06 for a quick charging colorant.

1. More powder, higher percentage will produce brighter, longer glow
2. Use a white, or light color as a background for best results. Any color other than white will diminish glow.
3. Use the clearest vehicle possible. Any pigment in the vehicle will decrease the brightness and length of glow.
4. The thicker (to a point) the layer of Glow Powder will produce longer and brighter luminosity.
5. Try to prevent moisture in the manufacturing process.
6. Do not use vehicle with high acidity.
7. Do not grind the Glow Powder, it will destroy the crystal structure and therefore decrease luminosity.
8. The larger the particle size of the Glow Powder the greater the glow.
9. Ratio of Glow Powder to medium is from 10% to 50% by weight depending on application and manufacture process. Best to start with 30% and move and down depending on cost, manufacturing process, and other factors that are unique to your application.

Note: This pigment should not be exposed to any water including humidity. If it does, it will eventually breakdown and you will loose about 20% of the glowing capacity. Store in a cool dry place. With that being said you can store this product indefinitely when stored properly. The glowing capacity is rated to last at least twenty five years when used correctly.
