Abstract

Photochromic materials have often been categorised as a smart material as they could sense and change colour with reversibility from colourless to coloured once exposed to ultraviolet radiation. The aim of this ongoing research is to exploit the design potential of commercially available water based photochromic inks when applied onto textiles using a screen printing method. This research paper highlights the experimental design research conducted in order to design multi-colour change textile patterns and discusses an electronic activation method which could be used to activate dynamic photochromic colours. The results highlight the complex colour changing effects of photochromic inks and outline new variables which could be used to control the kinetic behaviour of photochromic prints.
