86 results about "Thermochromism" patented technology

Thermochromism is the property of substances to change color due to a change in temperature. A mood ring is an excellent example of this phenomenon, but thermochromism also has more practical uses, such as baby bottles which change to a different color when cool enough to drink, or kettles which change when water is at or near boiling point. Thermochromism is one of several types of chromism.

Thermal management fiber membrane and preparation method thereof

The invention relates to the field of temperature-sensitive materials, in particular to a thermal management fiber membrane and a preparation method thereof. The heat management fiber membrane comprises a base body layer, a color changing layer and a color matching layer which are sequentially arranged in a stacked mode. And the matrix layer is a fiber membrane made of a spinning material. And the color-changing layer is formed by curing a water-soluble adhesive doped with thermochromic microcapsules. The thermochromic microcapsule is gradually and reversibly converted into a white state from a black state along with the rise of the temperature. And the color matching layer is formed by coating photonic crystal emulsion. The thermochromic microcapsule endows the thermal management fiber membrane with a temperature-sensitive discoloration capability so as to adjust the heat absorption and heat dissipation capability at different temperatures. The photonic crystals endow the thermal management fiber membrane with rich colors. The thermochromic microcapsule is attached to the surface of the fiber membrane through the water-soluble adhesive, so that the response speed of color change of the thermochromic microcapsule is increased, and wall material damage caused when the thermochromic microcapsule is doped in a spinning solution for spinning can be prevented, so that the performance of the thermal management fiber membrane is optimized, and the service life of the thermal management fiber membrane is prolonged.
