Introduction
Water-based thermochromic ink (heat-sensitive ink, temperature-indicating ink) is a specialty functional ink whose color changes reversibly or irreversibly with temperature. As temperature rises or falls, the ink can develop, disappear or change color — intuitive and easy to use in anti-counterfeiting, warning, packaging, toys and cultural products.
