Optical Brightener OB-1 and ZDHC

What 's Optical Brighteners?
Optical Brighteners
Optical Brightener, or fluorescent whitening agent is a heat resistant and chemically stable fluorescent whitener that increases whiteness and provides brighter looking colors. It is used to offset the yellowness of a polymer and to yield a whiter appearance. Optical brighteners create brilliance by a fluorescence process involving absorption of invisible UV light and emission of visible blue light.
