What is Luminescent 3D Printing?

Glow-in-dark (luminescent) filament contains phosphorescent particles that absorb light energy and slowly release it as visible glow. The result is 3D printed parts that charge under any light source and glow for hours in darkness.

✨ How It Works

☀️

Expose to light (sunlight, room light, UV)

Particles absorb and store energy

🌙

In darkness, energy releases as glow

🔄

Recharge anytime with light

FAQ

How long does the glow last?

Brightest in the first 30 minutes, then gradually fades. Visible glow continues for 2-4 hours. Intensity depends on how long it was charged.

Does it need batteries?

No. It's phosphorescent, not LED. Just expose to light to recharge. Works indefinitely.

Is it safe for kids?

Yes. The glow comes from phosphorescent particles embedded in PLA plastic. No radioactive materials, no batteries, no electricity.

Can I get different glow colors?

Green is standard and brightest. Blue and aqua are sometimes available. Ask us about current options.
