To glow, it needs UV light – sunlight or a UV lamp. Normal room light barely excites it. Expect a noticeably weaker and shorter glow than with green or blue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProperties\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e strontium aluminate doped with europium and dysprosium, with a protective coating – which makes it water-resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAfterglow duration:\u003c\/strong\u003e up to 2 hours after full charging in complete darkness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e whitish by day, purple in the dark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParticle size:\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 70 µm (1 µm = one thousandth of a millimetre)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCharging:\u003c\/strong\u003e best with UV light or sunlight; normal room light only excites it weakly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeat-resistant:\u003c\/strong\u003e the pigment withstands up to 1,200 °C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClassification:\u003c\/strong\u003e not classified as hazardous under CLP – see safety data sheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to use the glow powder\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pigment does not dissolve; it is stirred into a carrier: epoxy and casting resin, clear varnish, acrylic paint, glue, paste, wax or silicone. As a starting point we recommend \u003cstrong\u003eapprox. 20% pigment, relative to the carrier\u003c\/strong\u003e; in opaque carriers such as white wall paint, rather 30–50%. Test the mixture on a small sample first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe more transparent and lighter the carrier, the stronger the glow. Prime dark surfaces in a light colour first.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePurple is hard to make stand out on dark surfaces. Mixing in a little blue-green powder strengthens the glow – but it does not create a new shade.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn thin, runny resin the pigment sinks: let the resin thicken briefly, then stir it in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutdoors, use weatherproof clear varnishes or epoxy; indoors, solvent-free carriers such as clear varnish or paste are suitable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e40 g glow powder purple in a resealable poly bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePurple is an effect shade for dark rooms, stage and black light – not a light source. For a long, strong afterglow, green, blue-green or blue are better suited. The raw pigment is not a toy.
