Sample data set showing the temperature response of three different samples when placed onto the hotplate (38 °C) and then removed to room temperature (25 °C). The temperature reading for all of the samples increased to an equilibrium value exponentially. Similarly, cooling shows an exponential relationship. The diameters of the resin micro-pods are as follows: 
= 0.70 mm, 
= 1.00 mm, 
= 1.90 mm. Markers appear as lines in the figure due to the density of data.
