LCR, the International leader in Color Changing Temperature Indicating Technology and Graphics, specializes in the micro-encapsulation of liquid crystal compounds and the development / manufacturing of products, inks, dyes and paints that change color.
Liquid Crystals are chemical compounds and mixtures that exhibit the mechanical properties of liquids and the optical characteristics of solids. Liquid Crystals that change color with changes in temperature are known as thermo chromic liquid crystals (TLC’s). Scientifically they are identified as Cholesteric Liquid Crystals. Micro-encapsulation is the process that primarily protects, stabilizes and makes the liquid crystals easier to use.
This capability translates into exciting color changing graphics that produce a wide range of application's, from the precision necessary to monitor human temperature CliniTemp® a forehead thermometer used in the surgical setting to the whimsical mood ring of the 60s. We offer a combination of standard temperature sensitive color changing products and custom designs produced to your specification.
