Is there some kind of liquid that glows when you shake it, then shines for a while and fades away (mechanic energy to light without anything else needed except a bottle of that liquid)?
Mechanoluminescence is a phenomenon in which light is produced when a material is subjected to mechanical stress, such as being shaken or rubbed. This is caused by a rearrangement of the material's molecular structure, which releases stored energy in the form of light.
"Shake it to Light" products contain materials that are capable of producing mechanoluminescence. When these products are shaken or hit, the mechanical stress causes the material to emit light, creating a visually stunning effect.
Mechanoluminescence has potential applications in fields such as construction, where it can be used as a non-destructive way to detect cracks in materials. It can also be used in self-powered sensors and as a source of emergency lighting in emergency situations.
Yes, mechanoluminescence is generally considered safe as it does not involve any harmful radiation or chemicals. However, it is important to follow the safety instructions provided by the manufacturer when using "Shake it to Light" products.
Some research has been done on using mechanoluminescence for energy production, but currently it is not a practical source of energy. However, further research and development may lead to advancements in this area in the future.
