Abstract

Chromic materials on the surface of any materials are a focus of interest of the entire customer in the market nowadays. This chapter describes the fundamental of chromism in the various materials in various stimulated conditions. The history of chromogenic materials gives the idea of their nomenclature and materials development from ancient times to the current age. Categorization of the chromogenic system shows the various mechanism of chromism. Most applications of the materials such as photochromic, thermochromic, electrochromic materials, and so on, have been discussed with their materials behavior, mechanism, limitations. Hybrid chromic materials showing the integrity of various phenomenons in the materials to change their color are discussed briefly, which needs to be developed a lot in the current future.
