Thermochromic Material Market Statistics - 2030
The global thermochromic material market was valued at $1.0 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $1.3 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 3.4% from 2020 to 2030.
Thermochromic are the materials that are divided into two parts based on uses named “Thermal” is heat and “Chrome” is coloration. Thermochromic material shows reversible transition from color to colorless due to the change in temperature. The change in temperature may occur due to various stimuli like, ultraviolet irradiation, sunlight. There are mainly two types of materials used to produce thermochromic effects, namely organic dyes called leuco dyes and liquid crystals.
Thermochromic materials are generally organic leuco-dye mixtures composed by the solvent, color developer and the color former. Thermochromic material is used as temperature indicators in many industries and also used to determine the reaction heat and temperature variation in chemical reaction. In addition, it is used to measure temperature distribution of chemical heating apparatus such as reactors and heat exchangers and also used to indicate the temperature variation in containers for chemicals, dangerous goods and storage vaults. Moreover, it is used to detect hot and cold by the changing the property of material such as color, shape, size and other. Furthermore, thermochromic materials are heavily used in textile, pharmaceutical, packaging, printing and many other.

Impact Of Covid-19 On The Global Thermochromic Material Market
- As a result of the global economic slowdown, the production of major industries such as pulp & paper, textile, printing & coating and others were stopped for a shorter period. The strict regulations of government led to decrease in the sector due to which there is a sluggish decline in the growth of the global thermochromic material market.
- The pharmaceutical and healthcare industry accounts for a major share in terms of consumption of thermochromic material globally. After the major lockdown across the globe, there is a significant growth in the healthcare industry, which led to increase in demand for thermochromic material across the globe. However, there is a sluggish effect on the thermochromic material due to COVID-19.
- The production of textile was not stopped due to the minor restrictions on common use commodities, which led to increase in supply of thermochromic material, which in turn imparts a sluggish effect on the thermochromic material market.
- Due to the COVID outbreak, online shopping plays a vital role which led to increase in demand for packaging & printing; however, there is a sluggish impact on thermochromic material market.
- The food packaging industry accounts for a significant share in terms of consumption of thermochromic material globally. Attributed to the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for food packaging was increased. As a result, the demand for thermochromic material has increased, however there is a sluggish impact on the global thermochromic material market.
