Work Principle of Drop on Glass Beads

Drop on Glass Beads play a necessary part in traffic safety because of their retro-reflective properties. This property lets in the motorist to truly see the pavement line markings greater truly at night and in moist conditions. When a car's headlight beam shines on a pavement marking that is integrated-embedded-saturated with drop on glass beads, the line stripes light up and come to be plenty less complicated to see at night. This effect is called the retro-reflection.
