FLUORESCENT COMPOUND FOR SECURITY INKS WITH HIGHER PROTECTION LEVEL
CSIC has developed an organic fluorescent compound whose emission frequency varies as a function of external stimuli such as pressure and temperature. Therefore, this compound provides a double mechanism of use. The first mechanism consists in the ability of this material to show different colors depending on the angle of incidence of the light. The second mechanism occurs as the temperature increases producing a color change in the material that can be observed under ultraviolet light.
Industrial partners, manufacturers of inks, interested into a patent licence agreement for development of different applications for the banking, pharmaceutical and textile sectors are being sought.
