It is divided into three primary types: ultraviolet A (UV-A), ultraviolet B (UV-B), and ultraviolet C (UV-C). UV radiation has enough energy to break chemical bonds and can cause ionization, a process in which electrons break away from atoms.<br>UV light is produced naturally by the sun and artificially by sources such as black lights, mercury lamps, fluorescent tubes and LED. It has a variety of uses, including helping people get tans, killing bacteria, creating fluorescent effects, curing inks and resins, and treating medical conditions such as psoriasis[1][2]. Prolonged exposure to UV radiation can increase the risk of skin cancer[2].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: [1] <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/my.clevelandclinic.org\/health\/treatments\/24385-phototherapy-light-therapy#:~:text=Phototherapy%2C%20also%20known%20as%20light,conditions%2C%20including%20psoriasis%20and%20eczema.\" target=\"_blank\">clevelandclinic.org<\/a>, [2] <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ccohs.ca\/oshanswers\/phys_agents\/ultravioletradiation.html#:~:text=UV%20radiation%20is%20widely%20used,are%20used%20for%20different%20purposes.\" target=\"_blank\">ccohs.ca<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ultraviolet (UV) light is a type of electromagnetic rad &hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more\"> <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/technology\/uv101\/what-is-ultraviolet-uv-light\/\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">What is Ultraviolet (UV) light?<\/span> \u95b1\u8b80\u5168\u6587 &raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":false,"thumbnail":false,"medium":false,"medium_large":false,"large":false,"1536x1536":false,"2048x2048":false},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"admin","author_link":"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/author\/admin\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"Ultraviolet (UV) light is a type of electromagnetic rad...","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=101"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":102,"href":"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101\/revisions\/102"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=101"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=101"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.soulnano.com\/ra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=101"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
