Aluminate Long Afterglow Luminescent Materials in Road Marking Field Research Progress and Development: A Review

This paper reviews the research progress and development of aluminate long afterglow luminescent materials in the field of road marking, especially the study of rare earth ion-activated strontium aluminate (SrAl2O4: Eu2+, Dy3+)-based long afterglow powders. This article begins by describing the importance of road markings and the need to improve their visibility and durability at night and in adverse weather conditions. Subsequently, the current passive and active methods for improving the visibility of marking materials are discussed in detail, focusing on the advantages of aluminate long afterglow materials and challenges related to their hydrolysis and thermal stability. Through the application of organic–inorganic composite coating technology, the water resistance and thermal stability of the materials can be improved, thus enhancing the performance of road markings. This article also summarizes the current research status of different types of long afterglow road marking coatings. It analyzes the luminescence mechanism of aluminate long afterglow materials. Additionally, this article discusses future research directions and application prospects. The aim is to provide technical references and support for the wide application of long afterglow self-luminous road marking coatings.
