According to foreign media reports, U.S. scientists have invented a plastic bulb that can issue very close to natural light, and very good stretch, no worry to fall. It is expected that the first batch of plastic bulb will enter the market in 2013.
Wake Forest University scientists recently developed a new plastic bulb. The product has LED lights all the advantages, even more surprising is that this LED plastic bulb do not have any shortcomings. It has been reported that this plastic LED lighting bulbs are expected to replace a new light source. When current passes through the special plastic layer of this new type light bulb, it will emit light, this plastic layer is developed by using nanotechnology.
The R & D team said this new type of plastic bulb has a very good stretch. It can be designed into various shapes, such as the present commonly used lamp rod-shaped. Users do not have to worry about this bulb that will shatter, and when use it, it does not produce any noise.
This new lamp is temporarily referred to as “FIPEL”. The inventor David (David Carroll) Dr. Carroll said. It can win this new type of light bulb LED lights, but plastic is not particularly perfect bulb, the plastic may melt when the current is too high, which means the brightness of the plastic or restricted.
The emitted light of “FIPEL” is very close to natural light, but it vary greatly with the blue light emitted by LED street lights. Some people may worry about the plastic bulb life issues. Dr. Carroll said that his laboratory inside plastic bulb model has been used for nearly 10 years.
When asked about this plastic bulb that when to enter the market? Dr. Carroll said that a company is very interested in this product, and ready for mass production, it is expected to enter the market in 2013 the first batch of plastic lighting bulbs.
