I offer for your perusal these phosphorescent caving and rescue 
products from Pigeon Mountain Industries:

PMI Lumi-Line  http://tinyurl.com/4y2k658

PMI NiteLine  http://tinyurl.com/3rylfml

They used to also make 11mm and 13.5mm static nylon caving 
ropes of 100% phosphorescent yarn that was quite bright.  I still 
have a sample piece that gives me a start when I encounter it in 
the dark.  These products apparently priced themselves out of the 
market.

The 3mm NiteLine, though expensive, remains quite popular for 
tent guylines in close quarters like OTR...
