Reflective materials are surfaces that bounce back light, making them highly visible in low-light conditions. Common examples include reflective tape, road signs, and safety vests. These materials often contain tiny glass beads or special coatings that enhance their ability to reflect light, improving safety for pedestrians and drivers alike. These materials are widely used in various applications, from traffic safety to sports gear. By increasing visibility, reflective materials help prevent accidents and ensure that people can be seen in dark environments, such as during nighttime activities or in poorly lit areas.
