A triarylboron-based fluorescent temperature indicator: sensitive both in solid polymers and in liquid solvents.
A novel triarylboron compound, MPB, exhibiting reversible thermochromic dual-fluorescence in solid-state polymers and in liquid solvents was designed and synthesized. The fluorescent solid-state polymer with MPB can serve as a highly sensitive self-reference temperature indicator with a concentration independent feature.
