Hey /jp/, do you suppose there's a market for figures made of uranium-doped glass?

>> No.6965705

Trying to ship those anywhere near Japan would be a nightmare.

>> No.6965709

Looks radioactive...

gotta love radioactive green

The radiation that comes from the glass can be blocked by a plastic lid. It aint dangerous.

So the visible light's powerful enough to reach my eyes, but the higher energy photons and decaying particles get stopped somehow?

>> No.6965748

>>6965740
They don't use refined U-234 in the glass, just the normal stuff.
Alpha particles cant even get through your skin.

How, exactly, is uranium doping superior to, say, other fluorescent coatings?

>> No.6965766

>>6965759

Uranium.

They glow under UV light, they aren't glowing of their own power. It's really standard fluorescence, which makes one wonder WHY you would want this over other fluorescence treatments considering its cost.

>> No.6965771

>>6965759
Because the uranium is in the glass, not on it.

>> No.6965774

>>6965759
More natural I suppose, it has a nice yellow tinge and goes green under uv like in OP's pic.

WOuld eating uranium glass kill you quicker than eating regular glass?

I don't think it'll make a difference.

The lacerations will kill you, not the cellular damage from radiation.

uranium glass is an old art, people. The tonic water in your gin and tonic glows like the sun under UV light too.

It's not like you're swallowing a plutonium pellet and washing it back with a bunch of neutron reflecting tungsten carbide bits or something.

>> No.6965873

And to answer your question OP, there would be if there was a demand. I would probably buy one.

Not Quantum? Weak.

Just add Canada Dry to your Nuka Cola, that's the secret ingredient anyways.
