<p>I'm working on a college project which involves blacklight. I know about the blacklight sensitive paint which glows when exposed to the blacklight. I also know that some papers are sensitive as well. I want to know if there are any specific types of paper that are sensitive to blacklight. Or is it just based on the colors?</p>

Could you clarify what you're looking for here? A google search for "uv light paper" turns up a store selling "sun sensitive paper", and many colored papers will fade when exposed to sunlight. So I'm not sure if you're trying to figure out what makes that happen, or what material will avoid / have that effect, or something else?

I've edited the question with some context. I basically want to know if there are some specific type of papers which are sensitive to blacklight just as blacklight paint.

... yes... they're called "blacklight paper" or "UV light paper"... which is what whrrgarbl already said. Are you looking for paper that **isn't** specifically made for this purpose? Something that's *incidentally* black light reactive?
