Thermochromic Screen Printing Ink for Textiles. Thermochromic inks react to changes in temperature by exhibiting a colour change.
As the temperature rises above the response temperature chosen, the ink will disappear. It reverses back to its original colour as the temperature is reduced.
This pack comprises of 50% Thermochromic water based slurry and 50% water based binder. When mixed together 50/50, produces a Thermochromic ink that can be applied to Textiles.
The slurry and binder need to be mixed together in equal amounts, in order to create a finished ink that can 'fix' to it's substrate.
