I would think in your case the dye is mixed with the H2O2. Did some search online and found that typical glow sticks have the hydrogen peroxide solution inside the glass vial and the solution of phenyl oxalate ester and a fluorescent dye outside the glass vial but inside the glow sticks tube. It's when the inside glass vial breaks and H2O2 mixes with phenyl oxalate ester that cause the glow sticks to glow. You can find more info on this SpamRemoved.com

I would think so. If you mix up the glow sticks chemicals with some bubbles as long as the chemical content of the bubbles don't react with the stick chemicals, it would be glowing bubbles, but would probably with a little less glowing intensity as almost more water is added... As to glow sticks chemical content, I found them from this glow sticks online place under FAQ: 4 g Sodium Carbonate 0.2 g Luminol 0.5 g Ammonium Carbonate 0.4 g Copper Sulfate Pentahydrate approx. 1 litre of Distilled Water 50 ml of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide I would think you would be basically adding more water to the content.

I too was searching to make my own glow sticks. Here is what I found from this glow sticks site under their FAQ section. 4 g Sodium Carbonate 0.2 g Luminol 0.5 g Ammonium Carbonate 0.4 g Copper Sulfate Pentahydrate approx. 1 litre of Distilled Water 50 ml of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide Has anyone tried using the above stuff?
