What are the applications of UV region fluorescent polymeric coatings?

06 June 2014 1 2K Report

We have synthesized a polymeric coating with pyrene units. It is showing fluorescence in UV region and not showing in visible region.

Rohit Ranganathan Gaddam

UV region based fluorescent coatings could be used as inks in anti-counterfiet applications.
