Anti-heating transfer label

The area of interest is to apply the concept of shape memory effect of EVA to confirm the feasibility of implementation as an alternative to existing anti-heating security label that is able to indicate to manufacturers if any tampering of their product by heat has taken place on the label in a noti...
