Microencapsulated Thermosensitive Inks
They respond to temperature changes with reversible and controlled visual effects
Advanced solutions capable of responding to temperature changes by altering their visual appearance.
Thanks to microencapsulation technology, these inks can be used in printing labels, cards, packaging, and interactive prints that convey information or create dynamic visual effects in response to heat.
Microencapsulated Liquid Crystal Inks
Microencapsulated liquid crystals change color according to temperature, displaying a continuous color sequence (RED→GREEN→BLUE) within a defined thermal range.
The change is reversible, with colors cycling in response to temperature variations.
Advantages
- Protection of liquid crystals from solvents and mechanical stress
- Conversion of liquid crystals into printable inks
Application Examples
- Temperature Indicators
- Anti-counterfeiting Labels
- Educational and Recreational Materials
- Creative Packaging
Thermochromic Inks [Color → Transparent]
Formulations that remain colored up to a preset temperature threshold and become transparent when this threshold is exceeded. The transition from colored to transparent is reversible; when the temperature drops, the color becomes visible again.
These inks are available in various colors with customizable activation temperatures.
Advantages
- Protection of pigments from solvent action and mechanical stress
- Conversion of thermochromic pigments into printable inks
Application examples
- Smart and interactive labels
- Promotional and loyalty cards
- Functional and tamper-evident packaging
- Advertising materials and experiential marketing
- Games, publishing, and educational products
- Temperature monitoring and safety
- IPS Products
- New Project Development
We develop microencapsulation projects through a structured process:
