【Product Description】

This specially designed cloth repeatedly changes its color from dark blue to pink, and vice versa, with a temperature threshold of 30℃.

【Overall Advantages to Users】

  • Heat conduction/convection can be visualized by the color change in the cloth that occurs when heat flows through the medium.
  • The product can detect subtle thermal changes caused by, for example, steam rising from hot water in a cup thanks to the high thermal sensitivity.

【Keywords】

  • Heat convection
  • Heat conduction
  • Heat retention and radiation
