Luminous Afterglow Performance Tester
The Luminous Afterglow Performance Tester is a precision instrument designed to evaluate the afterglow characteristics of textiles, including fibers, yarns, fabrics, and powders. It measures the brightness and decay time after excitation, providing quantitative data for luminescent materials. The system features automated measurement, data recording, and sample switching for efficient, repeatable testing.
Application
The instrument is widely used in:
Textile R&D: Evaluating luminescent fibers, yarns, and glow-in-the-dark fabrics.
Quality Control: Ensuring consistent afterglow performance in production batches.
Specialty Materials: Testing photoluminescent coatings, powders, and textiles.
Safety Textiles: Evaluating visibility features in reflective and emergency fabrics.
Educational and Research Institutions: Studying luminescence properties in textiles and materials science.
Standards
Chinese Standards:
GB/T 43716-2024: Textiles – Test Method for Luminous Afterglow Performance – Photometer Method
International Standards (Expanded Reference):
ISO 17398: Photoluminescent materials – Determination of afterglow properties
