Reversibly thermochromic wood
Source abstract
Abstract
In this research, a reversibly thermochromic wood (RTW) was fabricated by using epoxy resin and reversibly thermochromic microcapsule (RTM) impregnating delignified wood. RTM showed sphere morphology with an average diameter of 33.6 µm. Delignification and bleaching of wood enrich its pore structure apparently, and the cumulative pore volume increased by 127% compared to natural wood. The color of RTW varies with temperature within the range of 12–28 °C. We suggest that RTW can be applied in decoration, smart window or thermosensitive element due to its reversible thermochromic character and transmittance.
