  • Thermochromic microparticles, dispersions thereof, and manufacturing method thereof, as well as light-modulating coatings, light-modulating films and light-modulating inks
    Patent number: 8709306
    Abstract: Thermochromic microparticles including vanadium dioxide (VO2) particles of a rutile crystal phase (R phase), and titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles of the rutile crystal phase (R phase), wherein at least one of the vanadium dioxide (VO2) particles of a rutile crystal phase (R phase) is grown like a rod on the titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles to be larger than sizes of the titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 21, 2009
    Date of Patent: April 29, 2014
    Assignee: National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology
    Inventors: Ping Jin, Shidong Ji, Masato Tazawa
  • PARTICLES, METHOD OF PRODUCING PARTICLES, AND COATING MATERIAL, FILM, AND INK INCLUDING PARTICLES
    Publication number: 20110284809
    Abstract: Particles having a thermochromic property include rod-shaped single crystals including vanadium dioxide (VO2). The aspect ratio of the long axis to the short axis of the rod-shaped single crystals is greater than 3 and less than or equal to 100, and the average length of the short axes of the rod-shaped single crystals is less than or equal to 500 nm.
