Plastic light bulb or impact LED light

According to foreign media reports, American scientists have invented a plastic light bulb that can emit light that is very close to natural light, and it has good stretchability and is not afraid of falling. It is expected that the first batch of plastic light bulbs will enter the market in 2013.

Scientists at Wake Forest University in the United States have recently developed a brand-new plastic light bulb that has all the advantages of LED lights, and it is even more surprising that such plastic light bulbs do not have any disadvantages of LEDs. It is reported that such a plastic light bulb is expected to replace LED as a new light source. When the current passes through a special plastic layer of this new type of bulb, it will emit light. This plastic layer is made using nanotechnology. The R&D team stated that this new type of plastic light bulb has very good stretchability and can be designed into various shapes, such as the light sticks that are now commonly used. The user does not have to worry that the light bulb will be broken and no noise will be generated when used.

This new light bulb is briefly referred to as "FIPEL" for the time being. The inventor Dr. David Carroll said that this new light bulb can overcome LED lights, but now the plastic light bulb is not perfect. When the current is too high, the plastic may melt, which means that The brightness of this plastic is still limited.

The light emitted by “FIPEL” is very close to natural light, but it is very different from the blue light emitted by LED lights. There may be concerns about the service life of plastic bulbs. Dr. Carroll said that the plastic bulb model in his laboratory has been used for nearly 10 years.

When asked about when this plastic light bulb could enter the market, Dr. Carroll said that there is now a company that is very interested in this product and is ready for mass production. It is expected that the first batch of plastic light bulbs will enter the market in 2013. .
