Glow Granules Blue 4 mm, 100 g – Glow-in-the-Dark Stones

The glow granules consist of crushed synthetic resin with phosphorescent pigment bound into it. They absorb light and release it in the dark as a blue glow – without electricity and as often as you like. In daylight they are an almost neutral whitish colour and barely noticeable; in the dark they glow blue.

Properties

• Material: crushed synthetic resin with bound-in glow pigment (strontium aluminate doped with europium and dysprosium)
• Grain size: 4–8 mm
• Afterglow duration: up to 12 hours after a full charge in complete darkness; strongest in the first few minutes
• Colour: whitish in daylight, blue in the dark
• Water: thanks to the resin binding, unaffected by water and solvent-based liquids
• Temperature: can be processed up to approx. 300 °C

How to use the glow granules

You can scatter the granules loose, glue them on or work them into a clear carrier, such as epoxy and casting resin, clear varnish, glue, wax, silicone or plaster.

• Loose as decoration: in garden gravel, flowerpots, vases or lanterns.
• Setting on top: press the grains only lightly into the setting surface of paint, resin or concrete so that they do not sink.
• Concrete, paving, joints: press the grains into the still-wet surface and grind flush once cured – or embed them in a transparent, walk-on layer of epoxy or exterior varnish.
• Outdoors: use solvent-based, weatherproof carriers and choose a spot that gets light during the day.
• The clearer and lighter the carrier, the stronger the glow.

Good to know

Afterglow is an orientation and effect aid, not lighting: it becomes visible in real darkness, but hardly under a street lamp. After 1–2 hours the glow fades into a glimmer. The granules are a material, not a toy.
