Abstract
A glow-in-the-dark composition suitable for molding fishing lures and fishing accessories is disclosed that provides improved glowing capabilities. By combining a white powder (preferably baking soda or salt) with a plastic resin and further including phosphorescent substance, mineral oil, color concentrate, foaming agent and silicone, plastic fishing accessories are created with superior glowing capacity. Briefly exposing the fishing accessories to light will cause them to emit light for a substantial amount of time, helping to attract fish.
Claims12
An improved glow-in-the-dark composition suitable for molding of fishing accessories, said composition comprising:
- about 0.1%-2% by volume white powder, wherein the white powder is selected from a group consisting of baking soda and salt;
- and
- about 0.5%-9% by volume phosphorescent substance, wherein the balance of the composition comprises a plastic resin, and wherein said white powder provides a background to enhance the brightness of said phosphorescent substance.
An improved glow-in-the-dark composition suitable for molding of fishing accessories, comprising a plastic resin combined with:
- about 0.1%-2% by volume white powder, wherein the white powder is selected from a group consisting of baking soda and salt;
- about 1/2%-9% by volume phosphorescent substance;
- about 0.1%-1% by volume mineral oil;
- about 0.1%-1% by volume color concentrate;
- about 0.2%-2% by volume foaming agent;
- about 0.1%-1% by volume silicone, wherein the plastic resin comprises the balance by volume of the composition, and wherein said white powder provides a background to enhance the brightness of said phosphorescent substance.
A glow-in-the-dark fishing accessory comprising a plastic body molded from a composition including:
- about 0.1%-2% by volume white powder, wherein the white powder is selected from a group consisting of baking soda and salt;
- about 0.5%-9% by volume phosphorescent substance;
- about 0.1%-1% by volume mineral oil;
- about 0.2%-2% by volume foaming agent;
- and
- about 0.1%-1% by volume silicone, wherein the balance of the body by volume comprises a moldable plastic resin, and wherein said white powder provides a background to enhance the brightness of said phosphorescent substance.
A glow-in-the-dark fishing accessory comprising a molded plastic body wherein said body includes about 1% by volume baking soda or salt, 4% by volume phosphorescent material, 0.5% by volume mineral oil, 0.75% by volume foaming agent and 0.25% by volume silicone.
