Stress-induced light emitting composite material transparent in visible light range, water-resistive stress-induced light emitting inorganic particles, production methods thereof and use thereof

摘要

A stress-induced light emitting composite material according to the present invention contains at least stress-induced light emitting inorganic particles, which emit light at application of a mechanical effect thereon and a polymer material. The stress-induced light emitting inorganic particles are not more than a wavelength of visible light in particle diameter and surface-treated. With this arrangement, the stress-induced light emitting composite material becomes transparent in a visible light range. Moreover the surface treatment of the stress-induced light emitting inorganic particles give water resistance to the stress-induced light emitting inorganic particles.
