The pigments in the ColuxGlow colours belong to the so-called alkaline earth aluminates

The ColuxGlow noctilucent paints and noctilucent inks are coating systems that contain special noctilucent pigments that can be charged with UV energy from daylight or artificial light. This charge is then re-emitted to the environment over time as visible light in a specific wavelength. Such a luminous effect in yellow-green or blue is called a photoluminescence or colloquially also known as phosphorescent which is chemically no longer true! The water-insoluble harmless pigments consist of aluminate with rare earths in the metal lattice. They are suitable for the production of noctilucent paints, lacquers, coatings and plastics as well as glass.

All our ColuxGlow paint formulations contain a binder, fillers, colorants and a high proportion of photoluminescent pigments.
