Pressure Sensitive Paints: Limited Info, Unhelpful Search

Summary for pressure sensitive paints Discussion

pressure sensitive paints are the main topic here, but the thread does not actually provide technical details about bathophen ruthenium. Vinay, a mechanical engineering student, asks what the compound is, its composition, and its properties in the context of aerospace PSP paints. The only response comes from Tom Gallant, who says a Google search found just two references and one ad, and that one reference wanted money while the other was a link that may not stay useful. So the discussion ends without a real chemical explanation or PSP formulation data, and the practical takeaway is that the source points readers toward outside searching rather than answering the compound question directly.

Q. Respected sir,

I am a student of mechanical engineering and I am very much interested in fluid mechanics. I want to know about the pressure sensitive paints used in aerospace industry. One particular compound that drew my attention is bathophen ruthenium which is present in the PSP. Sir , I need some information about this compound. what is its composition?what are its properties? please give me some information about this.

thanking you

A GOOGLE search turned up two references and one ad. One reference wanted money. The other one is:
