![]() Thermochromism is the ability of a substance to change colour due to a change in temperature. A mood ring is an excellent example of this, but it has many other uses. Thermochromism is one of several types of chromism. The two basic approaches are based on liquid crystals and leuco dyes. Liquid crystals are used in precision applications, as their responses can be engineered to accurate temperatures, but their color range is limited by their principle of operation. Leuco dyes allow wider range of colors to be used, but their response temperatures are more difficult to set with accuracy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochromic Cool stuff. Color changing jewelry :superhappy: My aunt got me a mood ring 2 years ago, but I lost it now... :crytears: I might buy a mood necklace or something... |

of course men can wear these types of jewellry. i believe there is a name for these types of men, but it must have slipped my mind. however, i do remember the small playing cars, you know hot wheels, which changed color by temperature. those were the coolest cars. |

When did I say I could German? The language itself is not difficult because I know norwegian. If you know your history well, you know why. Also, I chose french instead of german in highschool. |

Forget about mood rings! I was searching around for high quality mood rings and I stumbled onto spinner rings. I think it's kind of neat to have something to fidget aroud during presenations/waiting.![]() http://www.zulumoon.com/results_subCategor...SR&tSubCatID=67 |
