A ELECTROLUMINESCENT WIRE AND THE METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
The present invention discloses an electroluminescent wire. An embodiment of the present invention comprises at least one metal or non-metal wire as a linear central electrode, a light-emitting layer made of a luminescent powder and a transparent thermoplastic macromolecular polymer or a synthetic resin is directly coated surround and extruded on an outer-wall of the linear central electrode, a transparent electrode layer uniformly further coated surround and on a outer-wall of the linear light-emitting layer, an auxiliary electrode wound outside the transparent electrode layer, and a transparent polymeric layer as an outermost layer. The transparent thermoplastic polymer or synthetic resin has a good insulating and dielectric property, after it is mixed with luminescent powder, an insulating and dielectric capping film is formed outside the luminescent powder particles, the central electrode may be directly covered or coated with the light-emitting layer composed of the mixture, the dielectric coating may be omitted, thereby one manufacturing step may be omitted, and the cost may be also reduced. The present invention also provides a method for manufacturing said electroluminescent wire.
