A SMART MATERIAL 

Liquid Crystal Vinyl comprises a chiral-nematic liquid crystal interposed between two polymer layers (encapsulation). This intelligent material morphs its state reversibly when it comes into contact with set temperatures. However, once the temperatures are removed, the colour change returns to its preactivation state.

Making it an ideal choice for temperature mapping, art installations and more. Please contact us if you need assistance with your application.
