Effects of glowstick soft on the eyes?

does anyone no what it can do. the packaging say its non toxic but i'm not sure


Answers:    I hope this information helps.

And do you propose staring at a glowstick, or the actual glowstick breaking and the liquid getting into your eyes? If you're concerned you can other call a doctor. If it breaks and the juice comes into contact with your eyes, I can see in your mind`s eye you should expect some eye irritation. As far as just staring at it, no, it is not lethal.

What makes them work?
Light is generate by a chemical reaction call “chemiluminescence". Typical glow sticks as chemical reactants use: a hydrogen peroxide solution ( which is call the "activator" ) a solution of phenyl oxalate ester and a fluorescent dye (which makes the color). The activator is stored surrounded by a thin chalice capsule (comp. B on the diagram above). When the chalice capsule is broken (by flexing a shine
stick) the activator is released, and mixing the components (shaking the glow stick) initiates the hostile response. Depending on components used, the chemical reaction can concluding (glow sticks can glow) from a few minutes to many hours. Heating the daylight sticks (providing extra energy) will speed up the reaction, what will result contained by brighter light but will shorten the daylight time. The reaction will slow down surrounded by low temperatures (the night light will dim, but the glow time will be longer).

How to put into action them?
To activate:
bend (to break the internal cup capsule)
shake (until it glows evenly)

do not bend activate glow sticks any more; excessive bending may break the plastic tube what will result surrounded by leakage

How to turn them rotten?
They can not be turned off once activate

Does temperature affect the daylight time?
Yes, it does. Higher temperatures will bring in glow stick beam brighter but will shorten the glow time. Lower temperature do the opposite. Changes of warmth between 15 - 28 do not produce substantial changes within glow time.

Can they be re-charged after they stop flaming?
No, there is no road of re-charging or re-activating. Once the process of glowing comes to an shutting, light stick should be disposed of.

Are they rainproof?
Yes, light sticks are impermeable and can be used underwater for night diving, surfing or pool party.

How to store light sticks?
Chemical components of glare sticks are sensitive to light and humidity, so glow sticks should be stored within original undamaged factory casing. Prolonged exposure to light and humidity will shorten radiance time or can make luminosity sticks totally inactive.

What is the shelf go of light sticks?
Light sticks kept contained by original undamaged casing have a shelf life span of 0.5-2 years (depending on the type of product and storage conditions).

Are they safe?
The solution light source is non-toxic, no warmth or harmful radiation is produced.

Please data that the activated gooey even though non-toxic may contain tiny shards of glass which may motive injury
should the light stick be punctured or split uncap. The liquid can for good stain clothing or furniture and can cause
skin or eye irritation. Some lighting stick products may contain small elements, posing choking hazards.

Light sticks are not suitable for children underneath 5 years of age.
Do not puncture or split open.
