These materials absorb light energy in the day and they are able to give off this energy in the dark or at night. Some examples of these materials are glow in the dark stickers, glow in the dark watches and glow in the dark bouncy balls.

Is glow in the dark material fluorescent?
They are sort of related; however, glow in the dark materials are actually referred to as phosphorescent. The whole idea behind photoluminescence is that a material absorbs radiation (light) and then re-emits it. Phosphorescent materials absorb light, but release it at a much slower rate. Therefore, they absorb light when they are exposed to it, and then continue releasing it after the light source is removed. Fluorescence, on the other hand, is a material that that absorbs ultraviolet radiation (such as light from a black light) and then releases visible light.
What is the name of the salt present in luminous paint?
The salt present in luminous paint is typically a phosphorescent material called strontium aluminate.
Why do fluroescent lights glow in the dark when swiched off?
A fluorescent tube contains (when operating) a plasma, and this excites phosphors coated on the inside of the tube. Some of these phosphors are phosphorescent, that is they will glow in the dark for a while due to being exposed to light. But that glow will soon cease. Other phosphors are fluorescent, that is they will glow only while excited. So the glow you observe is due to the phosphorescent particles in the coating, and they will soon diminish in brightness.
What is the glow in the dark material called?
