摘要:
Lenses for lamps can improve the quality of the light emitted through lens by interacting with the light bulb. Photoluminescent dyes as well as non-photoluminescent dyes may be incorporated into a polycarbonate lens in order to shift the chromaticity of the light source. Further, design features such as grooves or protrusions may be incorporated into the lens to allow light produced by the photoluminescent material to escape the lens and be added to the emitted beam to further shift the chromaticity. The emitted beam is of a legal color and intensity as defined per the SAE J578 and SAE J1383 standards. The lighting performance may also be improved in such manner as reducing discomfort glare, increasing brightness or producing a beam that enhances road visibility at night to the human eye.

摘要:
Plastic articles, and in particular polycarbonate articles, provide an appealing aesthetic look in the form of a colored glow at locations defined by cuts and/or protrusions in the surface of the article as a result of incorporation of a photoluminescent material in the polycarbonate from which the article is formed. The cuts and/or protrusions define a graphic image, for example one or more letters (i.e., an initial or name), an abstract design, a drawing or a trademark or logo. Ambient light entering the plastic body results in luminescence from the photoluminescent material which is conducted as a result of internal reflectance within the plastic body to the edges of the cuts in the bodies surface.
