Design and application research of portable reversible thermochromic patches in grid power supply systems.

This study aims to develop a novel portable reversible thermochromic patch and evaluate its potential applications in temperature monitoring and indication. The film is based on the concept of electronic charge transfer thermochromic coatings, enabling accurate detection of high temperatures. Experimental results demonstrate that when the temperature of the monitored device's circuit reaches 70 °C or above, the color of the film changes from deep blue to colorless, indicating potential overheating in the power grid. Using salt spray corrosion testing and cycle performance testing, we validate the film's excellent corrosion resistance in harsh natural environments and its provision of reliable color indication. The film possesses portability and ease of attachment to various electrical devices and circuits requiring temperature sensing. By connecting the color information of the film to a computer system, we can achieve digital temperature monitoring, providing potential applications in future smart grid development.
