Definitions
- the invention relates to a security document and a method for producing the security document, which consists of a substrate with a front side and a back side, wherein the front side and / or the rear side is at least partially coated with at least one coating of at least one at least partially translucent plastic film.
- a security paper for the production of value and security documents such as banknotes, checks or the like, known, which consists of a creaseable, multi-layered substrate.
- the substrate in this case comprises at least one paper layer and at least one film, which are at least partially arranged one above the other, wherein at least the film is equipped with at least one security feature.
- the invention is therefore based on the object, a generic security document in such a way that the protection against counterfeiting is further increased and to provide a method for producing this security document
- At least the side of the at least one at least partially translucent plastic film, which faces the substrate is at least partially coated with a color whose hue is at least similar to the hue of the substrate.
- the hue of the color corresponds to the hue of the substrate, for example by using a color with a corresponding white hue, for example opaque white, in a substrate having a white hue.
- the substrate may also be colored and, for example, have a light green hue. In this case, the color has a corresponding light green hue.
- the substrate may also have a different color on the front and back.
- the hue of the color corresponds to the hue of that side of the substrate to which the paint is applied.
- the substrate may additionally be at least partially coated with a further layer which has a specific color shade, for example an adhesive layer or a laminating layer or a laminating lacquer.
- a further layer which has a specific color shade, for example an adhesive layer or a laminating layer or a laminating lacquer.
- the hue of the color in this area is adapted to the hue of this further layer so that it is at least similar to this, and preferably this corresponds.
- the color when viewed in reflected light, has a similar or preferably the same hue as the substrate or the further layer applied to the substrate and thus hardly or not appears.
- viewing in incident light is illumination of an object from one side and observation of the object from the same side. A reflection in incident light is thus present, for example, when the front of the object is illuminated and also viewed.
- a reflection in transmitted light in the sense of this invention is an illumination of an object from one side and a viewing of the object from another side, in particular the opposite side. A reflection in transmitted light is thus present, for example, when the back of the object is illuminated and the front of the object is viewed. The light thus shines through the object.
- the substrate is particularly preferably made of paper made of cotton fibers, as used for example for banknotes.
- a two-sided coating or lamination each with a plastic film results in a security paper, as in DE 102 43 653 A9 is described, the disclosure of which is fully incorporated in this regard in this invention.
- the substrate may also consist of paper of other natural fibers, also preferably of synthetic fibers, ie a mixture of natural and synthetic fibers or also preferably of at least one plastic film.
- the substrate consists of a combination of at least two superimposed and interconnected different substrates, a so-called hybrid, for example a combination plastic film-paper plastic film, ie a paper substrate is covered on each side by a plastic film, or paper Plastic film paper, ie a substrate a plastic film is covered on both sides by a paper substrate.
- the paper layer usually has a weight of 50 g / m 2 to 100 g / m 2, preferably from 80 g / m 2 to 90 g / m 2.
- any suitable weight can be used.
- the particularly advantageous increased counterfeit protection of the security document according to the invention over the security paper of DE 102 43 653 A9 lies in the fact that by the color whose hue is at least similar to the hue of the substrate, a printing technology generated security feature is provided that is visible only in transmitted light and not or only slightly in reflected light. It is therefore a visual feature similar to a watermark.
- this screening feature is initially on the plastic film and not on the substrate. Only after the joining of plastic film and substrate, the see-through feature is also on the substrate or on the side facing the substrate between the plastic film and laminating adhesive.
- a generic security document is, for example, a banknote, a security, a credit or identity card, a passport, a document or the like, a label, a packaging or another element for product assurance.
- An at least partially translucent plastic film in the context of the invention is a plastic film which is at least partially opaque and thus transparent in these areas. It is also preferable for regions with different translucency to adjoin one another, for example an area which allows 20% of the incident light to pass through the plastic film, to a region which allows 70% of the incident light to pass through. Likewise, it is preferably also possible for the translucency to change continuously in one area, for example by the translucency "flowing" increasing from 20% to 70% of the incident light.
- the preferred thickness of the plastic film is in the range of 6 .mu.m to 12 .mu.m in a construction film-paper-film, in the range of 12 .mu.m to 23 .mu.m in a structure paper-foil-paper and in the range of 6 .mu.m to 100 .mu.m in one Construction foil-foil.
- the plastic film is at least partially transparent. This has the advantage that structures which are arranged on the surface of the substrate or which are arranged between the substrate and the plastic film can also be perceived or recognized as such by a viewer without substantially reducing the recognizability.
- the plastic film in this case preferably protects the surface of the substrate, wherein structures underlying the plastic film can be seen as though through a window.
- Translucency in the sense of this invention means that an object, such as the substrate or the plastic film, can transmit incident light in a certain proportion. If light strikes one side of the object, a certain amount of light will pass through to the other side of the object left and resigns there. The greater the percentage of transmitted light relative to the incident light, the more translucent the object is. If the percentage is at least 90%, ie if the object allows the incident light to pass through almost unimpaired, as in the case of a window, the object is called transparent. On the other hand, an object that transmits less than 20%, preferably less than 10%, and most preferably about 0% of the incident light, that is, the proportion of the transmitted light with respect to the incident light is low or near zero, becomes opaque or referred to as not translucent.
- the color has at least one outline contour, which is designed in the form of at least one pattern, at least one alphanumeric character or a graphic image.
- the color thus forms a see-through security feature that hardly or not appears in incident light and is readable and / or recognizable in transmitted light.
- the outline contour can be sharply delimited so that there is no color outside the outline contour, or even mark a flowing transition, in which, for example, the ink layer thickness, the transparency of the ink or the like decreases continuously or in a stepped manner towards the outside.
- the translucency or translucency of the color within the outline contour can be constant, change step by step, areas of different translucency adjoining one another, or continuously changing, whereby, for example, the translucency increases or decreases "fluently".
- the outline contour forms a halftone image.
- the color has further properties. These are, for example, fluorescent, luminescent, electrically conductive, optically variable, thermochromic, magnetic or other machine-readable properties, which are mixed into the ink, for example in the form of pigments.
- the substrate or else at least one plastic film has at least one further security feature, for example a security thread, a security strip, a watermark or an imprint.
- the color is preferably cut out in the region of the at least one further security feature. This has the advantage that the readability and / or recognizability of the further security feature is not impaired by the color.
- the at least one at least partially translucent plastic film on the side facing away from the substrate is coated with a paint-accepting layer.
- a dye-receiving layer is a layer of a specific and preferably transparent material which has a higher, preferably considerably higher, ink-accepting capability than the underlying plastic film.
- Such printing methods are, for example, screen printing, offset printing, letterpress printing, doctoring, gravure printing or intaglio printing.
- the ink receiving layer is itself printed on the plastic film with one of the printing methods mentioned.
- the front side and / or the rear side of the substrate is at least partially coated with at least the coating of at least one at least partially translucent plastic film.
- the substrate is coated on one or both sides with the plastic film, wherein in the case of a one-sided coating, either the front side or the back side of the substrate can be coated.
- one or more at least partially translucent plastic films can be arranged one above the other on the respective side of the substrate, wherein in each case an adhesive or laminating layer is preferably arranged between the individual plastic films.
- the individual plastic films may additionally be at least partially coated with a color whose color shade is at least similar or corresponds to the color tone of the substrate.
- the color of a plastic film for example offset from the color of an underlying or overlying plastic film may be arranged so that their outline contours do not overlap or only partially.
- the side of the plastic film is coated with the color in the hue of the substrate which faces the substrate.
- the plastic film can be coated on one side or on both sides with the color in the color of the substrate.
- the color in the color of the substrate must be applied to the plastic film in such a way that it is arranged between the plastic film and the substrate.
- the alternative additional color in the hue of the substrate can also be applied on the side of the plastic film which faces away from the substrate, so that it is not arranged between the plastic film and the substrate.
- an adhesive layer is thus applied to the front side and / or back side of the substrate, preferably by printing a laminating lacquer using a printing method of the prior art.
- the color whose hue is at least similar to and preferably the same as the hue of the substrate is applied to the front and / or back of the at least partially translucent plastic film, preferably printed by a printing method of the prior art.
- the substrate acted upon by the adhesive layer or the plastic film acted upon by the adhesive layer and the plastic film applied to the ink or the substrate acted upon by the paint are brought together and bonded together.
- the laminating lacquer may alternatively or additionally also be colored, so that the color of the paint and the laminating lacquer are preferably the same.
- FIG. 1 shows schematically in cross-section a security document according to the invention, which consists of a substrate 1 with a front 7 and a back 8.
- the front 7 and the back 8 are each coated with a coating of an at least partially translucent, preferably transparent plastic film 4.
- the side of the respective plastic film 4 which faces the substrate is at least partially coated with a color 3 or 6, the color of which is at least similar to the color tone of the substrate 1 or of the laminating lacquer.
- the upper plastic film 4 is only partially coated with the color 3 and the lower plastic film 4 over the entire surface with the color 6.
- both the color 3 and the color 6 are only partially printed on the plastic film and complement each other in transmitted light to a total pattern.
- the advantage here is that in a counterfeiting attempt by detaching the printed plastic film from the substrate only a part of the total pattern is removed and in transmitted light still a part of the overall pattern of the other plastic film is visible on the substrate. Thus, manipulation attempts can be easily detected. Furthermore, the two individual parts, i. the separated plastic film and the rest of the composite, no longer reusable.
- the two colors 3 and 6 are also correspondingly different in their color.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Sicherheitsdokument und ein Verfahren zur Herstellung des Sicherheitsdokuments, das aus einem Substrat mit einer Vorderseite und einer Rückseite besteht, wobei die Vorderseite und/ oder die Rückseite mindestens teilweise mit mindestens einer Beschichtung aus mindestens einer zumindest teilweise transluzenten Kunststofffolie beschichtet ist.The invention relates to a security document and a method for producing the security document, which consists of a substrate with a front side and a back side, wherein the front side and / or the rear side is at least partially coated with at least one coating of at least one at least partially translucent plastic film.
Hierzu ist beispielsweise aus der
Der Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein gattungsgemäßes Sicherheitsdokument derart weiterzubilden, dass der Schutz gegenüber Fälschungen weiter erhöht wird sowie ein Verfahren zur Herstellung dieses Sicherheitsdokuments anzugebenThe invention is therefore based on the object, a generic security document in such a way that the protection against counterfeiting is further increased and to provide a method for producing this security document
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale der unabhängigen Ansprüche gelöst. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.This object is solved by the features of the independent claims. Further developments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.
Erfindungsgemäß ist mindestens die Seite der mindestens einen zumindest teilweise transluzenten Kunststofffolie, die dem Substrat zugewandt ist, mindestens teilweise mit einer Farbe beschichtet, deren Farbton dem Farbton des Substrats mindestens ähnlich ist.According to the invention, at least the side of the at least one at least partially translucent plastic film, which faces the substrate, is at least partially coated with a color whose hue is at least similar to the hue of the substrate.
Besonders bevorzugt entspricht der Farbton der Farbe dem Farbton des Substrats, indem beispielsweise bei einem Substrat mit einem weißen Farbton eine Farbe mit einem entsprechenden weißen Farbton verwendet wird, beispielsweise Deckweiß. Des Weiteren kann das Substrat auch eingefärbt sein und beispielsweise einen hellgrünen Farbton aufweisen. In diesem Fall weist die Farbe einen entsprechenden hellgrünen Farbton auf.Particularly preferably, the hue of the color corresponds to the hue of the substrate, for example by using a color with a corresponding white hue, for example opaque white, in a substrate having a white hue. Furthermore, the substrate may also be colored and, for example, have a light green hue. In this case, the color has a corresponding light green hue.
Alternativ kann das Substrat auch auf Vorder- und Rückseite einen unterschiedlichen Farbton aufweisen. In diesem Fall entspricht der Farbton der Farbe dem Farbton derjenigen Seite des Substrats, auf die die Farbe aufgetragen wird.Alternatively, the substrate may also have a different color on the front and back. In this case, the hue of the color corresponds to the hue of that side of the substrate to which the paint is applied.
Des Weiteren kann das Substrat vor dem Auftragen der Farbe zusätzlich mindestens teilweise mit einer weiteren Schicht beschichtet sein, die einen bestimmten Farbton aufweist, beispielsweise einer Klebstoffschicht oder einer Kaschierschicht bzw. einem Kaschierlack. In diesem Fall wird der Farbton der Farbe in diesem Bereich an den Farbton dieser weiteren Schicht angepasst, so dass er diesem mindestens ähnlich ist und bevorzugt diesem entspricht.Furthermore, prior to the application of the ink, the substrate may additionally be at least partially coated with a further layer which has a specific color shade, for example an adhesive layer or a laminating layer or a laminating lacquer. In this case, the hue of the color in this area is adapted to the hue of this further layer so that it is at least similar to this, and preferably this corresponds.
Wesentlich ist in allen Fällen, dass die Farbe bei Betrachtung in Auflicht, einen ähnlichen oder bevorzugt gleichen Farbton aufweist wie das Substrat bzw. die auf das Substrat aufgebrachte weitere Schicht und damit kaum oder nicht in Erscheinung tritt. Eine Betrachtung in Auflicht ist im Sinne dieser Erfindung eine Beleuchtung eines Objektes von einer Seite und eine Betrachtung des Objektes von derselben Seite. Eine Betrachtung in Auflicht liegt somit beispielsweise dann vor, wenn die Vorderseite des Objektes beleuchtet und auch betrachtet wird.It is essential in all cases that the color, when viewed in reflected light, has a similar or preferably the same hue as the substrate or the further layer applied to the substrate and thus hardly or not appears. For the purposes of this invention, viewing in incident light is illumination of an object from one side and observation of the object from the same side. A reflection in incident light is thus present, for example, when the front of the object is illuminated and also viewed.
Wird jedoch das Sicherheitsdokument in Durchlicht betrachtet, erkennt der Betrachter die Farbe, da sich im Bereich der Farbe die Transluzenz bzw. Lichtdurchlässigkeit der Farbe und die Transluzenz des Substrats addieren. Der Betrachter erkennt somit in Durchlicht die Bereiche der Farbe, da diese dunkler erscheinen als die umliegenden Bereiche des Substrats ohne Farbe. Eine Betrachtung in Durchlicht ist im Sinne dieser Erfindung eine Beleuchtung eines Objektes von einer Seite und eine Betrachtung des Objektes von einer anderen Seite, insbesondere der gegenüberliegenden Seite. Eine Betrachtung in Durchlicht liegt somit beispielsweise dann vor, wenn die Rückseite des Objektes beleuchtet und die Vorderseite des Objektes betrachtet wird. Das Licht scheint somit durch das Objekt hindurch.However, if the security document is viewed in transmitted light, the viewer recognizes the color, since in the area of the color, the translucency or translucency of the color and the translucency of the substrate add up. The viewer thus recognizes in transmitted light the areas of the color, since they appear darker than the surrounding areas of the substrate without color. A reflection in transmitted light in the sense of this invention is an illumination of an object from one side and a viewing of the object from another side, in particular the opposite side. A reflection in transmitted light is thus present, for example, when the back of the object is illuminated and the front of the object is viewed. The light thus shines through the object.
Das Substrat besteht besonders bevorzugt aus Papier aus Baumwollfasern, wie es beispielsweise für Banknoten verwendet wird. Durch eine beidseitige Beschichtung bzw. Kaschierung mit jeweils einer Kunststofffolie ergibt sich ein Sicherheitspapier, wie es in
Bevorzugt kann das Substrat auch aus Papier aus anderen natürlichen Fasern, ebenso bevorzugt aus Synthesefasern, d.h. einer Mischung aus natürlichen und synthetischen Fasern oder ebenso bevorzugt aus mindestens einer Kunststofffolie bestehen. Weiterhin bevorzugt besteht das Substrat aus einer Kombination aus mindestens zwei übereinander angeordneten und miteinander verbundenen unterschiedlichen Substraten, einem sogenannten Hybrid, beispielsweise einer Kombination Kunststofffolie-Papier-Kunststofffolie, d.h. ein Substrat aus Papier wird auf jeder seiner beiden Seiten durch eine Kunststofffolie bedeckt, oder Papier-Kunststofffolie-Papier, d.h. ein Substrat aus einer Kunststofffolie wird auf jeder seiner beiden Seiten durch ein Substrat aus Papier bedeckt.Preferably, the substrate may also consist of paper of other natural fibers, also preferably of synthetic fibers, ie a mixture of natural and synthetic fibers or also preferably of at least one plastic film. Further preferably, the substrate consists of a combination of at least two superimposed and interconnected different substrates, a so-called hybrid, for example a combination plastic film-paper plastic film, ie a paper substrate is covered on each side by a plastic film, or paper Plastic film paper, ie a substrate a plastic film is covered on both sides by a paper substrate.
Angaben zum Gewicht des verwendeten Substrats sind beispielsweise in der Schrift
Der besonders vorteilhaft erhöhte Fälschungsschutz des erfindungsgemäßen Sicherheitsdokuments gegenüber dem Sicherheitspapier der
Ein gattungsgemäßes Sicherheitsdokument ist beispielsweise eine Banknote, ein Wertpapier, eine Kredit- oder Ausweiskarte, ein Pass, eine Urkunde oder dergleichen, ein Label, eine Verpackung oder ein anderes Element für die Produktsicherung.A generic security document is, for example, a banknote, a security, a credit or identity card, a passport, a document or the like, a label, a packaging or another element for product assurance.
Eine zumindest teilweise transluzente Kunststofffolie im Sinne der Erfindung ist eine Kunststofffolie, die mindestens bereichsweise nicht opak ist und somit in diesen Bereichen lichtdurchlässig ist. Bevorzugt können auch Bereiche mit unterschiedlicher Transluzenz aneinander angrenzen, beispielsweise ein Bereich, der 20 % des einfallenden Lichtes durch die Kunststofffolie durchtreten lässt, an einen Bereich, der 70 % des einfallenden Lichtes durchtreten lässt. Ebenso ist es bevorzugt auch möglich, dass sich die Transluzenz in einem Bereich kontinuierlich ändert, indem beispielsweise die Transluzenz "fließend" von 20 % auf 70 % des einfallenden Lichts zunimmt.An at least partially translucent plastic film in the context of the invention is a plastic film which is at least partially opaque and thus transparent in these areas. It is also preferable for regions with different translucency to adjoin one another, for example an area which allows 20% of the incident light to pass through the plastic film, to a region which allows 70% of the incident light to pass through. Likewise, it is preferably also possible for the translucency to change continuously in one area, for example by the translucency "flowing" increasing from 20% to 70% of the incident light.
Die bevorzugte Dicke der Kunststofffolie liegt im Bereich von 6 µm bis 12 µm bei einem Aufbau Folie-Papier-Folie, im Bereich von 12 µm bis 23 µm bei einem Aufbau Papier-Folie-Papier sowie im Bereich von 6 µm bis 100 µm bei einem Aufbau Folie-Folie.The preferred thickness of the plastic film is in the range of 6 .mu.m to 12 .mu.m in a construction film-paper-film, in the range of 12 .mu.m to 23 .mu.m in a structure paper-foil-paper and in the range of 6 .mu.m to 100 .mu.m in one Construction foil-foil.
Besonders bevorzugt ist die Kunststofffolie mindestens bereichsweise transparent. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass Strukturen, die auf der Oberfläche des Substrats bzw. die zwischen Substrat und Kunststofffolie angeordnet sind, von einem Betrachter ohne wesentliche Reduzierung der Erkennbarkeit auch als solche wahrgenommen bzw. erkannt werden können. Die Kunststofffolie schützt in diesem Fall bevorzugt die Oberfläche des Substrats, wobei unter der Kunststofffolie liegende Strukturen wie durch ein Fenster erkennbar sind.Particularly preferably, the plastic film is at least partially transparent. This has the advantage that structures which are arranged on the surface of the substrate or which are arranged between the substrate and the plastic film can also be perceived or recognized as such by a viewer without substantially reducing the recognizability. The plastic film in this case preferably protects the surface of the substrate, wherein structures underlying the plastic film can be seen as though through a window.
Transluzenz im Sinne dieser Erfindung bedeutet, dass ein Objekt, wie das Substrat oder die Kunststofffolie, auftreffendes Licht in einem bestimmten Anteil hindurchtreten lässt. Trifft Licht auf eine Seite des Objekts auf, wird ein bestimmter Anteil des Lichtes bis zu der anderen Seite des Objekts hindurch gelassen und tritt dort wieder aus. Je größer der prozentuale Anteil des hindurchtretenden Lichtes bezogen auf das auftreffende Licht ist, desto transluzenter ist das Objekt. Liegt der prozentuale Anteil bei mindestens 90 %, d.h. lässt das Objekt das auftreffende Licht wie bei einem Fenster nahezu ungeschwächt hindurchtreten, wird das Objekt als transparent bezeichnet. Ein Objekt hingegen, das weniger als 20 %, bevorzugt unter 10 % und besonders bevorzugt etwa 0 % des auftreffenden Lichtes hindurchtreten lässt, d.h. bei dem der Anteil des hindurchtretenden Lichtes bezogen auf das auftreffende Licht gering oder nahe oder gleich Null ist, wird als opak oder als nicht lichtdurchlässig bezeichnet.Translucency in the sense of this invention means that an object, such as the substrate or the plastic film, can transmit incident light in a certain proportion. If light strikes one side of the object, a certain amount of light will pass through to the other side of the object left and resigns there. The greater the percentage of transmitted light relative to the incident light, the more translucent the object is. If the percentage is at least 90%, ie if the object allows the incident light to pass through almost unimpaired, as in the case of a window, the object is called transparent. On the other hand, an object that transmits less than 20%, preferably less than 10%, and most preferably about 0% of the incident light, that is, the proportion of the transmitted light with respect to the incident light is low or near zero, becomes opaque or referred to as not translucent.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass die Farbe mindestens eine Umrisskontur aufweist, die in Form mindestens eines Musters, mindestens eines alphanumerischen Zeichens oder einer graphischen Abbildung ausgeführt ist. Die Farbe bildet somit ein Durchsichts-Sicherheitsmerkmal, das in Auflicht kaum oder nicht in Erscheinung tritt und in Durchlicht lesbar und/ oder erkennbar ist.According to a preferred embodiment, it is provided that the color has at least one outline contour, which is designed in the form of at least one pattern, at least one alphanumeric character or a graphic image. The color thus forms a see-through security feature that hardly or not appears in incident light and is readable and / or recognizable in transmitted light.
Die Umrisskontur kann hierbei scharf begrenzt sein, so dass sich außerhalb der Umrisskontur keine Farbe befindet, oder auch einen fließenden Übergang markieren, bei dem beispielsweise die Farbschichtdicke, die Transparenz der Farbe oder dergleichen kontinuierlich oder stufenförmig nach außen hin abnimmt.In this case, the outline contour can be sharply delimited so that there is no color outside the outline contour, or even mark a flowing transition, in which, for example, the ink layer thickness, the transparency of the ink or the like decreases continuously or in a stepped manner towards the outside.
Die Transluzenz bzw. Lichtdurchlässigkeit der Farbe innerhalb der Umrisskontur kann hierbei konstant sein, sich schrittweise verändern, wobei Bereiche unterschiedlicher Transluzenz aneinandergrenzen, oder sich kontinuierlich verändern, wobei beispielsweise die Transluzenz "fließend" zunimmt oder abnimmt. Die Umrisskontur bildet dabei ein Halbtonbild.The translucency or translucency of the color within the outline contour can be constant, change step by step, areas of different translucency adjoining one another, or continuously changing, whereby, for example, the translucency increases or decreases "fluently". The outline contour forms a halftone image.
Gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist die Farbe weitere Eigenschaften auf. Dies sind beispielsweise fluoreszierende, lumineszierende, elektrisch leitfähige, optisch variable, thermochrome, magnetische oder andere maschinenlesbare Eigenschaften, die beispielsweise in Form von Pigmenten in die Farbe gemischt werden.According to a further preferred embodiment, the color has further properties. These are, for example, fluorescent, luminescent, electrically conductive, optically variable, thermochromic, magnetic or other machine-readable properties, which are mixed into the ink, for example in the form of pigments.
Gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass das Substrat oder auch mindestens eine Kunststofffolie mindestens ein weiteres Sicherheitsmerkmal aufweist, beispielsweise einen Sicherheitsfaden, einen Sicherheitsstreifen, ein Wasserzeichen oder einen Aufdruck. Bevorzugt ist hierbei die Farbe im Bereich des mindestens einen weiteren Sicherheitsmerkmals ausgespart. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die Lesbarkeit und/oder Erkennbarkeit des weiteren Sicherheitsmerkmals von der Farbe nicht beeinträchtigt wird.According to a further preferred embodiment it is provided that the substrate or else at least one plastic film has at least one further security feature, for example a security thread, a security strip, a watermark or an imprint. In this case, the color is preferably cut out in the region of the at least one further security feature. This has the advantage that the readability and / or recognizability of the further security feature is not impaired by the color.
Gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass die mindestens eine zumindest teilweise transluzente Kunststofffolie an der Seite, die dem Substrat abgewandt ist, mit einer Farbannahmeschicht beschichtet ist. Eine Farbannahmeschicht ist hierbei eine Schicht aus einem bestimmten und bevorzugt transparenten Material, das eine höhere, bevorzugt wesentlich höhere Fähigkeit zur Farbannahme aufweist als die darunterliegende Kunststofffolie. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die mindestens eine zumindest teilweise transluzente Kunststofffolie mit Druckverfahren des Standes der Technik bedruckt werden kann und die Farbe besonders gut an der Kunststofffolie haftet. Derartige Druckverfahren sind beispielsweise Siebdruck, Offsetdruck, Buchdruck, Aufrakeln, Tiefdruck oder Stichtiefdruck. Bevorzugt ist die Farbannahmeschicht selbst mit einem der genannten Druckverfahren auf die Kunststofffolie aufgedruckt.According to a further preferred embodiment, it is provided that the at least one at least partially translucent plastic film on the side facing away from the substrate is coated with a paint-accepting layer. In this case, a dye-receiving layer is a layer of a specific and preferably transparent material which has a higher, preferably considerably higher, ink-accepting capability than the underlying plastic film. This has the advantage that the at least one at least partially translucent plastic film can be printed with printing methods of the prior art and the color adheres particularly well to the plastic film. Such printing methods are, for example, screen printing, offset printing, letterpress printing, doctoring, gravure printing or intaglio printing. Preferably, the ink receiving layer is itself printed on the plastic film with one of the printing methods mentioned.
Erfindungsgemäß ist die Vorderseite und/ oder die Rückseite des Substrats mindestens teilweise mit mindestens der Beschichtung aus mindestens einer zumindest teilweise transluzenten Kunststofffolie beschichtet. Dies bedeutet zum einen, dass das Substrat einseitig oder beidseitig mit der Kunststofffolie beschichtet ist, wobei bei einer einseitigen Beschichtung entweder die Vorderseite oder die Rückseite des Substrats beschichtet sein kann. Zum anderen können auf der jeweiligen Seite des Substrats eine oder auch mehrere zumindest teilweise transluzente Kunststofffolien übereinander angeordnet sein, wobei zwischen den einzelnen Kunststofffolien bevorzugt jeweils eine Klebstoff- bzw. Kaschierschicht angeordnet ist. Werden mehrere Kunststofffolien übereinander geschichtet angeordnet, können zusätzlich die einzelnen Kunststofffolien mindestens teilweise mit einer Farbe beschichtet sein, deren Farbton dem Farbton des Substrats mindestens ähnlich ist oder entspricht. In diesem Fall kann die Farbe einer Kunststofffolie beispielsweise versetzt zu der Farbe einer darunter- oder darüberliegenden Kunststofffolie angeordnet sein, so dass sich ihre Umrisskonturen nicht oder nur teilweise überlappen.According to the invention, the front side and / or the rear side of the substrate is at least partially coated with at least the coating of at least one at least partially translucent plastic film. This means, on the one hand, that the substrate is coated on one or both sides with the plastic film, wherein in the case of a one-sided coating, either the front side or the back side of the substrate can be coated. On the other hand, one or more at least partially translucent plastic films can be arranged one above the other on the respective side of the substrate, wherein in each case an adhesive or laminating layer is preferably arranged between the individual plastic films. If a plurality of plastic films are stacked on top of each other, the individual plastic films may additionally be at least partially coated with a color whose color shade is at least similar or corresponds to the color tone of the substrate. In this case, the color of a plastic film, for example offset from the color of an underlying or overlying plastic film may be arranged so that their outline contours do not overlap or only partially.
Erfindungsgemäß ist mindestens die Seite der Kunststofffolie mit der Farbe im Farbton des Substrats beschichtet, die dem Substrat zugewandt ist. Dies bedeutet, dass die Kunststofffolie einseitig oder beidseitig mit der Farbe im Farbton des Substrats beschichtet sein kann. Hierbei muss bei mindestens einer Kunststofffolie die Farbe im Farbton des Substrats derart auf die Kunststofffolie aufgebracht sein, dass sie zwischen Kunststofffolie und Substrat angeordnet ist. Die alternative zusätzliche Farbe im Farbton des Substrats kann dahingegen auch auf der Seite der Kunststofffolie aufgebracht sein, die dem Substrat abgewandt ist, so dass sie nicht zwischen Kunststofffolie und Substrat angeordnet ist.According to the invention, at least the side of the plastic film is coated with the color in the hue of the substrate which faces the substrate. This means that the plastic film can be coated on one side or on both sides with the color in the color of the substrate. In this case, in at least one plastic film, the color in the color of the substrate must be applied to the plastic film in such a way that it is arranged between the plastic film and the substrate. On the other hand, the alternative additional color in the hue of the substrate can also be applied on the side of the plastic film which faces away from the substrate, so that it is not arranged between the plastic film and the substrate.
Die Erfindung umfasst weiterhin ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Sicherheitsdokuments, wobei
- ein Substrat zur Verfügung gestellt wird,
- auf die Vorderseite und/oder Rückseite des Substrats eine Klebstoffschicht aufgebracht wird,
- mindestens eine zumindest teilweise transluzente Kunststofffolie bereitgestellt wird,
- auf die Vorderseite und/oder die Rückseite der Kunststofffolie mindestens teilweise eine Farbe aufgebracht wird, deren Farbton dem Farbton des Substrats mindestens ähnlich und bevorzugt gleich ist und
- die Kunststofffolie auf die Vorderseite und/oder die Rückseite des Substrats aufgebracht, bevorzugt aufkaschiert wird.
- a substrate is provided,
- an adhesive layer is applied to the front and / or back of the substrate,
- at least one at least partially translucent plastic film is provided,
- at least partially applied to the front and / or the back of the plastic film, a color whose hue is at least similar to the shade of the substrate and preferably the same, and
- the plastic film is applied to the front and / or the back of the substrate, preferably laminated.
Erfindungsgemäß wird somit auf die Vorderseite und/ oder Rückseite des Substrats eine Klebstoffschicht aufgebracht, bevorzugt, indem ein Kaschierlack mit einem Druckverfahren des Standes der Technik aufgedruckt wird. In einem separaten Arbeitsschritt wird auf die Vorderseite und/oder Rückseite der zumindest teilweise transluzenten Kunststofffolie die Farbe, deren Farbton dem Farbton des Substrats mindestens ähnlich und bevorzugt gleich ist, aufgebracht, bevorzugt mit einem Druckverfahren des Standes der Technik aufgedruckt. Anschließend werden das mit der Klebstoffschicht beaufschlagte Substrat oder die mit Klebstoffschicht beaufschlagte Kunststofffolie und die mit der Farbe beaufschlagte Kunststofffolie oder das mit der Farbe beaufschlagte Substrat zusammengeführt und miteinander verklebt. Dies geschieht bevorzugt, indem das Substrat und die Kunststofffolie unter mechanischem Druck zusammengepresst werden, wobei die Haftfähigkeit der Klebstoffschicht während des Zusammenfügens zusätzlich durch Wärmeeinwirkung, Einstrahlung elektromagnetischer Wellen, Einstrahlung mit kurzwelligen Licht, oder andere bekannte Maßnahmen erhöht werden kann. Der Kaschierlack kann alternativ oder zusätzlich auch eingefärbt sein, so dass der Farbton der Farbe und des Kaschierlacks ähnlich bevorzugt gleich sind.According to the invention, an adhesive layer is thus applied to the front side and / or back side of the substrate, preferably by printing a laminating lacquer using a printing method of the prior art. In a separate step, the color whose hue is at least similar to and preferably the same as the hue of the substrate is applied to the front and / or back of the at least partially translucent plastic film, preferably printed by a printing method of the prior art. Subsequently, the substrate acted upon by the adhesive layer or the plastic film acted upon by the adhesive layer and the plastic film applied to the ink or the substrate acted upon by the paint are brought together and bonded together. This is preferably done by the substrate and the plastic film are pressed together under mechanical pressure, wherein the adhesiveness of the adhesive layer during assembly can be additionally increased by heat, irradiation of electromagnetic waves, irradiation with short-wave light, or other known measures. The laminating lacquer may alternatively or additionally also be colored, so that the color of the paint and the laminating lacquer are preferably the same.
