Photoluminescent film

Photoluminescent film can absorb ambient light, either natural or artificial; retaining that light energy while still receiving light and then when they stop receiving it; either at night, during a power outage or in a fire, will show that energy in the form of long luminescence, which has a high initial intensity, which will slowly decrease over the course of several hours, in the case of our materials and posters after caused darkness in the environment where are installed. Xing Wei is producing and providing optimum quality Photoluminescent film in the market.  the film mainly applies to glow signs which are extensively demanded in varied industries due to their salient features like easy installation, longer service life, world-class quality, and visual appeal. We can also offer the following basic formats of photoluminescent materials: 1. PET Type for lettering  2. PVC Type for eco-solvent digital printing Our photoluminescent materials can be purchased from China directly or our distributor locally,  With photoluminescent materials, any further inquiry, drop us a msg, we will reply to you shortly.

Photo Luminescence Signs for Safety in the Workplace

Safety is paramount in just about any workplace whether it is a manufacturing unit, a warehouse or any other type of business. You would like your workers to be safe and secure at all times and one aspect of this focus on safety can be satisfied by using glow in dark film signs. These signs are often essential in emergency situations where loss of electric power can cause a facility-wide blackout. Without such signage in position, evacuation and other emergencies can be harder to deal with and may result in unsafe working conditions. When there is a fire in the building, electric power is shut down and the smoke compromises the visibility, making evacuation signs difficult to read, but the photoluminescence signs make the emergency procedures and floor plan easy to read, thereby facilitating a faster and more efficient evacuation. These signs are equally useful in event of storms and other situations that cause a building to lose electric power. Photoluminescence safety signs have been used with great success in the marine and aviation industry for many years. How does Photo Luminescence Material Work? Photoluminescence safety signs are powered by ambient light and are designed not to light up space but define a space and ensure that when an emergency arises people can find their way to safety with ease and confidence. The photoluminescence film luminous principle is actually through the atomic electron energy level transition. Inorganic phosphorous is used in making of the photoluminescence film which is incorporated into a carrier or substrate which pulls in energy from the surrounding light source. The substrate could be a water-based or solvent-based paint, magnetic tape, plastic extrusion, vinyl film or polyurethane casting. The phosphorous absorbs the light in visible and ultraviolet wavelengths and when placed in the dark setting releases visible light and glows. Photoluminescence signage is a lot more superior to other types of illuminated signs as it doesn’t require an outside power source to keep it illuminated in an emergency situation. These emergency safety signs are available as rigid plastic and acrylic sheeting or in flexible glow in dark vinyl rolls. These safety signs are environmentally friendly, code compliance and can be cut into strips of various lengths and shapes for illuminating hallways, walkways, staircases and other indoor or outdoor areas. The emergency signs made of vinyl are durable, ultraviolet stable as well as fire and weather resistant. Benefits of Photoluminescent Safety Signs Photoluminescent signs offer various benefits over electrically wired safety signs with the most important benefit being the reliability and another great benefit is that they save energy thereby reducing carbon footprint. Here are some other benefits of photoluminescent signs. · Keep your Building Occupants Safe Keeping your building occupants safe is essential in emergency situations and the use of glow in dark signs and evacuation routes in stairways help you do that because "in an emergency use the stairs" we all know that. However, most people do not know that all stairways do not necessarily lead to the exit. So, installing these safety [...]

XING WEI Reflective’s Photo Luminescence Film for Brazil Market  Brazilian Association of Technical Standards which is also known by its acronym ABNT is a private non-profit organization which was founded in1940 and is affiliated with ISO (International Organization of Standards). It is headquartered in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo in Brazil. The main purpose of this organization is to regulate National standards throughout the country in order to boost technological development and since the organization is connected with ISO, the products and services that it certifies are of the highest quality. To standardize products and to meet the needs of Brazilian companies, ABNT has developed various programmes and it has named the Brazilian National Standards as Norma Brasileira Regulamentadora when abbreviated it is called as NBR. For example -ABNTNBR14644 for road vertical signs-traffic sign sheeting and NBR 13434 for fire and panic safety signs. Fire and Panic Safety Signs - ABNTNBR 13434 The Brazilian National Standard for NBR 13434 - Fire and Panic Safety Signs was created for Fire Safety. These safety signs are expected to comply with the standards set by ABNT. The standards are as follows · Brazilian National Standards: The Brazilian standards consists of 3 parts: · Part1: Principles of Designs · Part 2: Symbols and their shapes, dimensions & color · Part 3: Requirement and test methods · Legislation of Municipal Scope: Municipal building codes and works like installing aerial as well as ground signs for emergency exits. · Federal Legislation: Regulating safety for fire protection, safety signs and confined spaces like a clear indication for exits and permanent signs for confined spaces to avoid entry of unauthorized persons. · Statewide Legislation: State code for safety regulations against fire, panic in the buildings and risk areas. XING WEI Reflective photo luminescence safety signs comply with all the standards that are set as per the Legal regulation and ABNT. Luminance Standard ABNT NBR 13434: Luminance is the measurement of light per unit area of light traveling in one direction, which means it shows how much luminance power the eyes can detect from a surface when looking from a particular angle. It is an indicator of how bright the surface will appear to the eyes. And luminance is calculated by candela per square meter (mcd/m2). The following chart demonstrates the Luminance Standard requirement as per ABNT NBR 13434 and XW Reflective Luminance Film performance. STANDARD ABNT NBR 13434 XW10-35 Brightness10mins (mcd/m2) 140 252.8 Brightness 60mins (mcd/m2) 20 34.55 Recession time to 0.3 mcd/m2 1800 Mins 2180 Mins This chart clearly explains that the ABNT standard requires a luminance value of 140 candelas per square after the disappearance of the incident light and remains for 10 minutes in the dark. The performance of XW Reflective is incredible as the luminance value is 252.8 candela per square after the disappearance of the incident light and remains for 10 minutes in the dark. Also the ABNT standard requires luminance recession time of at least 0.3 candelas per square after the disappearance of the incident light and remains for 1800 minutes in the dark. [...]
