[Object] To provide a reversibly thermochromic composition free from accidental discoloration by heat conducting from the opposite side writing surface or by self-heating due to quick writing; and also to provide a solid writing material and a writing ink composition comprising that composition.
[Means to solve the problem] A reversibly thermochromic composition comprising a combination of: (a) a reversibly thermochromic component capable of being discolored or decolored by heat and (b) a component for controlling heat conducting to the reversibly thermochromic component; and also a solid writing material and a writing ink composition comprising that composition.

Aspects of the invention include color change compositions having a color former and color developer composition that transitions from a first color state to a second color state upon application of an applied stimulus and an amount of a copolymer sufficient to eliminate background color of the color former and color developer composition during transition from the first color state to the second color state. Methods for preparing and devices employing the color change compositions of the invention are also described.
