The global thermochromic pigments market was valued at $428.3 million in 2019, and is projected to reach $595.0 million by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2020 to 2027.

Thermochromic pigments are classified under specialty pigments that have superior property of color changing with a change in temperature. Thermochromic pigments are insoluble materials incorporated by physically mixing them with the medium. They have a high tinting strength as compared to the material in which they are added. These pigments serve numerous our main functions: impart color to the medium, change color according to temperature, hide the substrate and efface the existing color, and enhance the strength of the paint film.

Depending upon the type of thermochromism, the global thermochromic pigments market is segmented into reversible and irreversible thermochromic pigments. In term of application, the thermochromic pigments are widely used in paint & coating, ink printing, and plastic products to either show the temperature change or to increase aesthetics of the product. The usage of thermochromic pigments based ink can be usually seen in beer wrappers indicating the coldness of beer or sticker on the pizza delivery boxes indicating hotness of the pizza.
