What are the functions and applications of blue-light absorbers?

In today's era of rapid development of science and technology, it is no longer possible to leave computers, laptops, tablets and other digital products, and work, life and entertainment without leaving home are displayed through the Internet and computer displays. While improving your work efficiency and enjoying your entertainment life, you should also notice that your eyes are being damaged by blue light.

Prolonged exposure to blue light, the shorter, higher energy part of visible light, may cause damage to the human retina, affect sleep quality, and even cause a series of health problems. Therefore, blue light absorbers have emerged, which can effectively reduce or eliminate the blue light reflected or transmitted by the surface of the material, and protect the human body from it.

Blue light absorber is an important optical material that can be used to reduce the fatigue and damage of the human eye to blue light. As a special functional additive, blue light absorbers are playing an increasingly important role in modern materials science.

Functions of Blue Light Absorbers:

1. Reduce blue light hazards: The most direct function of blue light absorbers is to absorb and convert blue light energy, thereby protecting the eyes and skin from blue light damage.

2. Improve visual comfort: In the fields of display screens, spectacle lenses, etc., the application of blue light absorbers can significantly reduce the intensity of blue light emitted by the screen, making the viewing experience softer and more comfortable.

3. Improves sleep quality: The application of blue light absorbers in household items such as curtains and eye masks can help create a low-blue light environment and promote better sleep.

In summary, as functional additives, blue light absorbers play an important role in modern materials science. At present, it has been widely used in many aspects such as display screens, spectacle lenses, home decoration materials, automotive glass and medical fields. With the deepening of people's pursuit of healthy life and the continuous development of science and technology, the application prospect of blue light absorbers will be broader.
