Some people are using the term “nanometers” incorrectly when talking about UV gel manicures or enhancements.
Los nanómetros no son lo que cura los productos de curado UV; son simplemente una unidad de medida, equivalente a la milmillonésima parte de un metro, que se utiliza para describir las longitudes de onda de la luz. Son estas longitudes de onda específicas las que son cruciales para el curado del producto.
Explorando el espectro: La gama de longitudes de onda emitidas por las lámparas UV para uñas
Nail lamps don’t just emit a single wavelength. They actually give off a range of wavelengths. For example, a 405 nm lamp emits wavelengths ranging from 420 to 390 nanometers (nm), with 405 nm being the center of this range. Similarly, 365 nm lamps emit wavelengths ranging from 380 to 350 nm, with 365 nm being the center.
Más allá de las longitudes de onda: el papel crucial de la intensidad en el curado UV adecuado
It’s important to note that wavelength range isn’t the only factor in curing nail products. The intensity of the light is just as important, in fact it is crucial to proper curing. Cheaper lamps often have a low intensity, which means they don’t cure the product properly. Both the intensity and the wavelength range need to be correct for proper curing to occur.
Piense que el sol broncea la piel de forma diferente en invierno que en verano. La luz UV del sol es la misma, pero la intensidad es menor durante los meses de invierno. Por tanto, la intensidad importa mucho.
Comprender las medidas reales de la eficacia de las lámparas de uñas
Some companies that sell cheap lamps might try to trick you by focusing on wattage instead of intensity. But wattage only tells you how much electricity the lamp uses, not the intensity of the UV light. UV intensity is measured in units called mW/cm2, not watts.
