Soluble

UV Longwave soluble powders come in two types:

Invisible

  • Invisible marking
  • Security tagging
  • Invisible leak detection
  • Hand Stamps

Daylight Fluorescing

  • Highly visible under ultraviolet light
  • Leak tracing and detection
  • Batch contamination
  • Highly stable under harsh chemicals

 

 Drawbacks Of Soluble Powders

  • Soluble powders are typically organic based materials which will degrade under sunlight.  If left exposed to the sun, powders typically degrade in about 1 week.  If not exposed to sunlight, the powders last indefinitely. 

Advantages Of Soluble Powders

  • Soluble powders are typically organic based materials which have much more brilliant colors under UV light when compared to their inorganic, crystalline equivalents
  • Soluble powders can be more easily made into a solution which can be used like an ink.
  • Items marked with inks made from the powders have greater invisibility under normal light than non-soluble inks.
