How Hydrochromic Ink Works:
Hydrochromic ink contains molecules that react to changes in pH, altering their colour or transparency when exposed to water. This unique property allows for a wide range of creative applications.
Factors Affecting Performance:
- pH: The pH of the water can influence the colour change or transparency.
- Temperature: Higher temperatures can accelerate the reaction.
- Ink Concentration: The amount of pigment in the ink affects the intensity and speed of the colour change.
- Surface Properties: The surface on which the ink is applied can influence its performance.
