Light fastness of liquid crystal-based thermochromic printing inks
Dyes and Pigments, 2020 Thermochromic inks are known for their poor stability against UV light, appearing differently in leuco dye-based and liquid crystal-based ink types. The leuco dye-based inks lose the colour contrast between the coloured and discoloured states but the temperature at which the colour changes stays the same.

Colorimetric description of thermochromic printing inks [PDF]
, 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

The properties of printing substrates required for thermochromic liquid - crystal printing inks
Journal of Print and Media Technology Research, 2018 The color change of thermochromic liquid- crystal (TLC) printing inks occurs inside the microcapsules containing thermo-responsive material. It starts at the defined activation temperature (TA) and occurs in several degrees wide region above the TA where the color changes throughout the whole visible spectrum, the effect known as "color play".
