Refleksmaterialet

Refleksmaterialet refers to materials that possess the property of reflecting light. This phenomenon is crucial in various applications, enhancing visibility and safety. Common examples include retroreflective materials, which are designed to bounce light back towards its source, making objects significantly more noticeable in low-light conditions. These materials often employ microscopic glass beads or prisms embedded within a flexible substrate.

The primary use of refleksmaterialet is in safety clothing for pedestrians, cyclists, and road workers, as well as in traffic signs and vehicle markings. The effectiveness of such materials is measured by their retroreflectivity, often expressed in candelas per lux per square meter (cd/lx/m²). Different types of refleksmaterialet exist, varying in their construction and performance characteristics, catering to specific environmental and visibility requirements. The development of more efficient and durable refleksmaterialet continues to be an area of active research, aiming to improve safety across numerous domains.
