Smart Materials Polymorph: A Type of Plastic or Polymer that can be formed and reformed just like any other thermoplastic. However it only needs to be heated up with hot water to soften it. Once cooled it can be filled, sawn or machined like any other plastic. Applications include modelling grip prototypes Shape Memory Alloy (or memory wire): A type of stiff metal wire that can be bent to a shape but when heated to 90 degrees, will instantly straighten out. It can also be heated to 150 degrees to give it a new memory shape. Then whenever it is heated it will instantly change to it’s new shape. Applications include: flexible spectacles (superelastic wire), heat activated cable connectors Thermochromic PIGMENT (Smart colours). Thermochromic materials change colour when heated. Even a small change such as body heat can change the colour of the sheet. This technology can also be used as a pigment for plastics and textiles. Applications include: thermometers, baby feeding products, kettles, steam irons, thermal warning patches, and hi-tech jewellery PhotoChromatic Pigment Photochromic materials change colour when exposed to LIGHT. Applications include: sunglasses, anti-flash visors, sun-blocking products and radiation indicators Phosphorescent pigment Phosphorescent materials GLOW IN THE DARK. They are able to absorb light energy and store it. This stored energy is released as light energy over a period of time. Applications include: emergency exit signs, jewellery and toys
