Abstract
A temperature detecting material comprises a first material containing a first temperature indicating material and a second material containing a second temperature indicating material, wherein the first temperature indicating material and the second temperature indicating material contain a leuco dye, a color developing agent, and a decoloring agent, and have a hysteresis characteristic in their color density-temperature curves, wherein the first temperature indicating material has a color developing temperature in a temperature increase process lower than a decoloring temperature in the temperature increase process, and turns to a non-crystalline state and is kept in a decoloring state when cooled down below the color developing temperature in the temperature increase process with a predetermined cooling speed or more after melting, wherein the second temperature indicating material, a color developing temperature is lower than a decoloring temperature in the temperature increase process, and wherein the color developing temperature in the temperature increase process is lower than the decoloring temperature in the temperature increase process and the color developing temperature is lower than the color developing temperature in the temperature increase process.
