Del Sol’s Proprietary Spectrachrome® Photochromic Technology and Dyes
- Spectrachrome® is the name of Del Sol’s proprietary color-changing technology.
- While in their inactive state, Spectrachrome® crystals are invisible to the unaided human eye.
- When crystals are exposed to ultraviolet light (sunlight), they reveal their inherent color.
- Similar to a flower blooming once exposed to UV rays, the molecules twist and unfold, resulting in the molecule expanding to several times its dormant size.
- The color-changing molecules shift into a range in the electromagnetic spectrum that’s visible to the human eye. This activity is referred to as the molecular excitation transition.
- Fastest, brightest and most vibrant color-change on the planet.
- Del Sol’s proprietary blends of its purest photochromic dyes are produced and distributed directly from its Spectrachrome® laboratories in Sandy, Utah.
- Del Sol’s proprietary colorant formulas are impossible to duplicate.
- More than 300,000 dye/ink variations have been tested to date.
- Competitors are limited to a few colors only and very little color vibrancy.
- Del Sol dyes are produced to the highest possible clarity and quality.
