  • Patent number: 6555215
    Abstract: A luminescent composite laminate structure for utility accessories and service hardware having luminosity for emergency and non-lighted conditions in which to illuminate the outer surface of such hardware and accessories. The composite laminate structure includes a plurality of layers for the protection of the luminescent outer surface of the laminated hardware or accessories. An outer first layer is a plastic protective covering for resistance to wear and impact; and the outer first layer is covering an inner second layer and has an inner surface wall in contact with the inner second layer. The inner second layer is a plastic micro-thin covering having a plurality of micro-hole openings for the transfer of oxygen (O2) through the micro hole openings in order to increase visibility of the luminescent outer surface; and the inner second layer is covering an inner core third layer and has an inner surface wall in contact with said inner core third layer.
