Abstract

The aim of this paper is to examine the influence of ambient temperature on the rate of color change of thermochromic inks, which belong to the group of smart materials. Magenta reversible thermochromic ink was used, which was printed by manual screen-printing technique on different types of textile materials. The activation temperature of the used ink is 31°C. The experiment results indicate a relationship between the ambient temperature and the speed of color change, such that higher ambient temperatures cause slower color change and vice versa. Understanding the effect of ambient temperature on the color change of a thermochromic print is important for its more effective use.
