How does it Works?
The night glow effect powder that we use has additives that capture the light when exposed to a source of light, and it can be sunlight or artificial light, like bulbs. When removed from the source of light, the product developed with the night glow effect powder will emit the light that it has captured in the dark.
Typically the stability of the glow is for 8 to 10 hours.
We pride ourselves on sourcing our Night Glow Effects Roto Moulding Powder from the best providers and are of industrial-grade material. Furthermore, the material we source is from legally approved vendors.
The products manufactured at Rototech Industries are of international standards with a good balance between creating durability of the products and the effects made with the raw materials.
This is manufactured, keeping in mind that it can be used for various products. Therefore, we ensure that the products developed can withstand extreme weather conditions. Hence they are moisture-proof and even heat-proof.
What can it Be Used For?
The material’s high heat and moisture resistance make it perfect roto-molding applications.
We also offer customization options to our clients with different colors. They can also be used across various surface types and for different decorative items planters, sports goods, and sculpture items.

FAQs
What is Night Glow Effects Rotomoulding Powder?
Night Glow Effects Rotomoulding Powder is a specialized polyethylene (PE) powder that contains phosphorescent pigments capable of absorbing light and glowing in the dark. This material is commonly used for safety applications, decorative items, and novelty products requiring visibility in low-light conditions.
How does the glow-in-the-dark effect work?
The glow-in-the-dark effect is due to phosphorescence, where special pigments absorb UV or visible light and release it slowly over time. The key components include:
Strontium Aluminate (SrAl2O4): A high-efficiency phosphorescent pigment.
Dopant Elements (Europium – Eu, Dysprosium – Dy): Enhance brightness and longevity.
Energy Absorption & Release: The pigment stores light energy and emits it as a soft glow.
What types of light sources charge the glow pigments?
Natural Sunlight – Best for maximum brightness and long-lasting glow.
Fluorescent & LED Lights – Moderate charging capability.
UV Light Sources – Quickest and most effective for charging.
What are the key material properties of Night Glow Rotomoulding Powder?
Base Resin: LLDPE (Linear Low-Density Polyethylene) for flexibility.
Glow Pigments: Strontium Aluminate (SrAl2O4) with rare-earth elements.
Density (ASTM D792): 0.930 – 0.950 g/cm³ (may vary based on pigment load).
Melt Flow Index (MFI, ASTM D1238): 3-6 g/10 min at 190°C, 2.16 kg load.
UV Stabilizers (HALS – Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers): Prevent degradation.
How long does the glow last after charging?
Standard Glow Duration: 6-12 hours, depending on charge time and pigment concentration.
High-Performance Variants: Can glow for up to 24 hours with specialized formulations.
What colors are available for Night Glow Effects?
Green Glow – The most common and brightest.
Blue Glow – Softer, more calming effect.
Aqua Glow – A mix of green and blue.
Purple Glow – Requires longer charge time.
How does the addition of glow pigments affect mechanical properties?
Slightly increases density due to heavy phosphorescent materials.
May reduce impact strength compared to standard PE powders.
Improves UV resistance, as phosphorescent compounds absorb UV light.
Is this powder suitable for outdoor applications?
Yes, UV-resistant grades are available for outdoor applications. However, prolonged sun exposure may slightly reduce the glow intensity over time.
What is the optimal processing temperature for this powder?
| Parameter | Recommended Range |
| Oven Temperature | 190-240°C |
| Dwell Time | Depends on wall thickness |
| Cooling Rate | Controlled to avoid stress cracks |
How does Night Glow Powder compare to standard rotomoulding powders?
| Feature | Night Glow Powder | Standard Rotomoulding Powder |
| Glow in the Dark | ✅ Yes | ❌ No |
| UV Resistance | ✅ Moderate | ✅ High |
| Density | 🔺 Slightly Higher | 🔹 Standard |
| Cost | 💲 Higher | 💲 Lower |
Can Night Glow Powder be mixed with other colors?
Yes, but mixing with dark colors reduces glow brightness.
Best results are achieved with light or transparent shades.
What are common applications of this powder?
Safety Signage & Road Markers – Illuminated path markers.
Toys & Decorative Items – Glow-in-the-dark figurines and novelty products.
Home Décor – Night-light switches, glow wall panels.
Marine & Emergency Equipment – Low-light navigation and emergency kits.
What is the service temperature range of Night Glow Powder?
Operating Temperature: -40°C to +85°C.
Glow pigments remain stable up to ~120°C, but prolonged heat exposure may degrade performance.
Is this powder FDA-approved for food contact applications?
Not typically FDA-approved due to the presence of phosphorescent compounds.
Non-toxic versions are available, but verification is required for specific food-related uses.
Can Night Glow Powder be used for water tanks?
Not recommended for potable water tanks due to non-FDA-approved glow pigments.
Safe for decorative or non-drinking water storage applications.
Does the powder contain radioactive or toxic substances?
No, Night Glow Rotomoulding Powder is free from radioactive materials and meets international safety standards such as:
RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) Compliance.
REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization of Chemicals) Certified.
How do glow pigments affect the rotational molding process?
Even Distribution: Requires proper pigment dispersion to avoid patchy glow effects.
Slightly Higher Processing Temperatures: Ensures proper fusion of glow pigments with PE resin.
Longer Cooling Time: Prevents warping due to denser material composition.
How does exposure to different environments affect the glow effect?
| Environment | Effect on Glow Performance |
| Direct Sunlight | ✅ Good for charging, but UV may degrade performance over years. |
| Indoor Lighting | ⚡ Works best under strong LED/UV light. |
| High Humidity | 🔺 Slightly reduces glow brightness over time. |
| Extreme Heat | 🔥 May reduce pigment lifespan at >120°C. |
What storage precautions should be taken?
Keep in airtight containers to prevent moisture absorption.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Avoid contamination with dark pigments to maintain maximum glow efficiency.
Is this powder environmentally friendly?
Yes, most phosphorescent pigments are non-toxic and eco-friendly.
Recyclable with standard polyethylene (PE), but should not be mixed with food-grade materials.
