Do you want to make the shining inscription? Or the shining details of any device? For this purpose you need to make a phosphor at first. It will require special chemicals. It is necessary to work with them accurately, some of them are poisonous.

It is required to you

  • Set of chemicals
  • Porcelain mortar with a pestle
  • Gas burner or rangette
  • Laboratory scales with weights
  • Measured spoons by quantity of reactants
  • Glue or varnish
  • Soft brush

Instruction

1. Receiving different paints requires a different set of chemicals. It is possible to get them in the specialized shops trading in chemical reactants. For obtaining bluish-white color you need thiosulphuric and sour strontium in number of 20 g, 0, 5% spirtovy solution of nitrate silver — 2 ml, 0, 5% solution of nitrate lead. - 4 ml. For obtaining yellowish-green color take: sernovatistokisly barium — 60 g0, 5% of spirit solution of nitrate uranium — 6 ml: 0, 5% solution of nitrate bismuth — 12 ml. Are necessary for obtaining light yellow color: carbonic strontium — 100 g; sulfur — 30 gsod (carbonic sodium) — 2 g; chloride sodium — 0, 5 g; sulfate manganese — 0, 2 g. For receiving a violet phosphor: 0, 5% of nitrate bismuth — 1 mlser — 6 g; chloride sodium — 0, 15 g; extinguished lime — the 20th gkhloristy potassium — 0, 14 g.

2. Pound components of mix in a porcelain cup then in the same cup put it to heat up for 2-3 hours on the gas burner or an electric tile. At the end of heating carefully mix.

3. Shift a phosphor in a glass or porcelain jar. It is possible to store it in the place protected from light long enough. It is desirable to close densely to bank a cover that not dopusti access of air, dust and moisture.

4. Apply the received phosphor on any material with a dusting method. At first apply a layer of glue or varnish on the painted site. Without waiting for drying, fill phosphor powder on this site. Remove excess of powder with a soft brush. It is a phosphor with afterglow — it "is loaded" from a daylight then glows in the dark. Besides, such phosphor can be loaded from an ultra-violet lamp.
