How Mood Rings Change Color?
A mood ring is a specialized liquid crystal thermometer, wearable on the finger. The ring is typically ornamented with a gemstone (usually made of quartz or glass) which is either a clear capsule filled with thermochromic liquid crystal, a heat-changing liquid, or has a thick sheet of liquid crystal sealed underneath.
Changes in temperature cause the crystal to reflect different wavelengths of light which changes the color of the stone. The liquid crystal used in mood rings is usually set up to display a “neutral” color at the average human skin temperature, which is approximately 34 °C (93 °F).
Do mood rings really work?
There is significant evidence that your body’s temperature is correlated with your mood for example a standard temperature within your body is 34 C (93 F). When you become stressed your body automatically directs cooler cool blood towards your internal organs this moves away from your skin and causes your external temperature to drop resulting in your mood ring changing color to a darker tinge. For example, if you’re feeling passionate or happy your body temperature increases and this can cause the crystals within your mood ring to switch in a different direction resulting in a change of color. So there’s no denying that there is some correlation between mood swings and body temperature, to some extent a mood ring could work as an indicator to show emotions.
Having said that there are many other factors at play that could affect the color of a mood ring that is completely unrelated to mood such as sunbathing taking a cold shower are you just finished the workout. So relying on new jewelry or mood rings to tell you what your emotional state might be probably a brilliant strategy, but it doesn’t change the fact that they’re fun and pretty, and watching how they change will certainly become a fascinating topic of conversation.
