【Product Description】
l The thermochromic powder is a microencapsulated product that changes color reversibly with temperature fluctuations. It becomes colorless above a specific temperature (e.g., 31°C) and displays color below 31°C (or changes from one color below 31°C to another color above 31°C).
l The thermochromic powder is processed using microencapsulation technology, presenting as a powder with a particle size between 1~10 μm. It possesses enhanced properties such as high-temperature resistance and oxidation resistance due to microencapsulation.
l The thermochromic powder can be applied in various industries, including coatings, inks, and plastics. Product designs often focus on color changes between high and low-temperature environments.
l Basic fifteen colors: red, rose red, peach red, vermilion, orange, yellow, yellow-green, grass green, green, sky blue, turquoise blue, blue, dark blue, violet, and black. These colors can be mixed with each other or combined with other dyes and pigments for color adjustment.
【Temperature Range Setting】
Available temperature ranges from -15°C to 70°C. Different temperature intervals can be set based on various product application requirements. The typical temperature interval for color change is 2~10°C, with color concentration gradually decreasing from low to high temperatures until it becomes nearly transparent.
Ø Example: 05C8T indicates the color starts to fade at 5°C and completes the change at 8°C. ——Suitable for cold beverage labeling.
Ø Example: 029C33T indicates the color starts to fade at 29°C and completes the change at 33°C. --Suitable for human contact applications.
Ø Example: 036C45T indicates the color starts to fade at 36°C and completes the change at 45°C. --Suitable for hot beverage labeling.
【Applications】
1.Coatings and Screen Printing Inks
Can be applied to both oil-based and water-based coatings and inks.
Suitable for various printing methods, including screen printing, gravure printing, and relief printing.
Can be mixed with dyes or pigments to achieve more diverse color changes.
2.Plastic Injection and Extrusion
Suitable for processing various plastics, such as PP, PE, PVC, PU, PS, ABS, TPR, EVA, Nylon, and Acrylic.
It is recommended that the plastic's melt index (MI value) be greater than 10, and the flexural modulus be less than 13000.
Can be mixed with different color powders to achieve more diverse color changes.
【Safety】
The thermochromic powder is non-irritating to the skin and does not contain substances harmful to humans. It complies with safety standards for toys and food packaging.
【Storage】
The thermochromic powder should be stored in a sealed, dry, and dark place, avoiding direct sunlight.
【Finished Product Examples】
Thermochromic cups, temperature-sensitive phone cases, temperature-sensitive towels, temperature-sensitive toys, temperature-sensitive paper products, etc.
