Abstract

Thermal imaging cameras can be a very useful help when observing chemical experiments. They enable the observation of phenomena which are not visible to the human eye. In this paper a set of school experiments is described in which the use of a thermal imaging camera gives additional information on ongoing processes. Additionally an e-book that was designed as accompanying learning material is presented.
