PHOSPHORESCENT TONER AND METHODS OF FORMING AND USING THE SAME

摘要

A toner composition including at least one phosphorescent pigment that absorbs energy released by natural or artificial light, and is able to be seen in a dark environment through luminescence of a certain color created by the energy released as light, and a method of forming and using the toner are described. The phosphorescent toner has a particle size in the range of about 15-40 microns, which allows the toner to have the ability to absorb and then release the needed amount of light energy to be noticeable in a dark environment.
