Article: Studies from Osaka University in the area of physical chemistry published.

According to a study from Suita, Japan, "When heated above room temperature, some crystalline polymorphs of the 1,3-bis(hydroxyalkylamino)-4,6-dinitrobenzenes (BDBn, n = 2-5), bis(hydroxyalkyl) analogues of the intramolecular charge-transfer molecule 1,3-diamino-4,6-dinitrobenzene, exhibit ''dual'' thermochromism: gradual color change from yellow to orange at lower temperatures, and sharp color change from orange to red at higher temperatures. These two thermochromic changes are related to different solid-state processes."

"When allowed to cool to room temperature, the yellow color of the thermochromic molecules with different alkyl length (it) is recovered with ...
