A decorative laminate is provided which includes one or more cellulosic core sheets, one or more decor sheets and optional overlay sheets. In one embodiment, one or more of the overlay sheets and/or decor sheets are impregnated prior to lamination with a mixture of a transparent resin and a photoluminescent material. As a result, the entire upper surface of the laminate visibly luminesces in the presence of exciting radiation. In another embodiment, an image or pattern is printed on one or more of the decor sheets with a ink including an organic photoluminescent material to provide an visibly luminescent image or pattern therein. It is envisioned that the invention could be used to provide a unique and appealing appearance when used as the surfacing for a wide variety of applications, including bowling lanes, game tables, counter-tops, dance floors, and signs such as "exit" signs. |
