  2. Thermochromism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochromism

    Thermochromic coating modulate their reflectance as a function of their temperature, making them an appropriate solution for combating cooling loads, without diminishing the building's thermal performance during the winter period. [18] Thermochromic materials are categorized into two subgroups, dye-based and non-dye-based thermochromic ...

  3. Leuco dye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leuco_dye

    The spiro form of an oxazine is a colorless leuco dye; the conjugated system of the oxazine and another aromatic part of the molecule is separated by an sp 3-hybridized "spiro" carbon.

  4. Liquid crystal thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_crystal_thermometer

    A liquid crystal thermometer, temperature strip or plastic strip thermometer is a type of thermometer that contains heat-sensitive (thermochromic) liquid crystals in a plastic strip that change colour to indicate different temperatures. [1] Liquid crystals possess the mechanical properties of a liquid, but have the optical properties of a ...

  5. Thermochromic ink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochromic_ink

    Thermochromic ink (also called thermochromatic ink) is a type of dye that changes color in response to a change in temperature. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It was first used in the 1970s in novelty toys like mood rings, but has found some practical uses in things such as thermometers, product packaging, and pens. [ 4 ]

  6. Chromism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromism

    In chemistry, chromism is a process that induces a change, often reversible, in the colors of compounds.In most cases, chromism is based on a change in the electron states of molecules, especially the π- or d-electron state, so this phenomenon is induced by various external stimuli which can alter the electron density of substances.

  7. Thermal printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_printing

    A thermal printer Bills and receipts are typically printed on thermal paper. [1]Thermal printing (or direct thermal printing) is a digital printing process which produces a printed image by passing paper with a thermochromic coating, commonly known as thermal paper, over a print head consisting of tiny electrically heated elements.

  8. Lead zirconate titanate - Wikipedia

    The formula of the material used usually approaches Pb 1.1 (Zr 0.3 Ti 0.7)O 3 (called lead zirconate titanate 30/70). Its properties may be modified by doping it with lanthanum , resulting in lanthanum-doped lead zirconium titanate ( lead zirconate titanate , also called lead lanthanum zirconium titanate ), with formula Pb 0.83 La 0.17 (Zr 0.3 ...
