Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.The review discusses stimuli‐responsive hydrogels as soft optical materials that translate physical, chemical, and biological cues into refractive‐index, scattering, birefringence, diffraction, and transparency changes. It examines major stimulus classes and photonic architectures for biosensing, waveguiding, adaptive lenses, smart windows, and therapy.

Colorimetric description of thermochromic printing inks
Acta graphica : znanstveni časopis za tiskarstvo i grafičke komunikacije, 2017 The dynamic colour of three commercial reversible thermochromic inks were studied. Thermochromic print-ing inks change their colour according to a change in temperature. The two types of thermochromic inks are based on leuco dyes and liquid crystals. The thermochromic effect achieved by liquid crystals is quite different from the effect achieved with ...

How to Visually Represent the Colour Theory of Thermochromic Inks
EKSIG 2015: Tangible Means — Experiential Knowledge Through Materials, 2015 Colour theories have been established in order to allow artists and designers to understand the relationship between colours, and to determine how a chosen colour will react or interact with another. Smart colours - such as leuco dye-based thermochromic inks - have entered into the textile and fashion design world, bringing with them new challenges ...

ON TEXTILE PRINTING WITH THERMOCHROMIC INKS
, 2018 What are thermochromic inks? They are colouring agents characterised by their ability to, when printed on textiles, change colour in response to temperature fluctuations. Below their activation temperature they are coloured, and above their activation temperature they are clear or have a light hue.

On textile printing with thermochromic inks
, 2017 This thesis describes an exploration of the principles of applying leuco dye-based inks to textile design practice. The main motivation has been to explore the design properties and potentials of leuco dye-based thermochromic inks when printed on textiles in order to obtain an understanding and facilitate the design of dynamic surface patterns.
