Light Emitting Paint
Description: A new concept has been developed in the field of surface conversion light emitting paint. The technology is used to convert any surface to illuminate light in dark. The coating absorbs light incident on it. This absorbed energy is released in the dark. The surface coated with light emitting paint retains its original finish in the light. The coating is almost invisible in the day. This technology is being used extensively for interior decoration. It is used on ceiling to convert it into starry sky. Any surface rough or smooth, new or old, interior or exterior can be converted to glow in dark. New fields are being explored for the application. One of the typical applications is for roads in rural areas where streetlight is not available. A long strip of nightglow on the sideways solves the problem. These strips are very much visible in absolute dark eliminating the need for street poles and electricity. It is intelligently used in the corridors of hotels, emergency exits and gangways in chemical plants. It is suitable for establishments like theatres and auditoriums. Apart from such utilities it saves on electricity. The conversion job takes a few hours to have an even luminous coat. The surface once coated lasts for years together. No maintenance as such is required. This new concept in the field of light emitting paint has been offered by Indra Machines.
