Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing an aluminum foil (1) and to an aluminum foil with integrated security features (6). An aluminum foil (4) is rolled to a thickness of less than 150 µm in multiple cold rolling passes, and simultaneously a texture (5a, 5b) which runs in the rolling direction is produced on both faces (4a, 4b) of the aluminum foil. A loose composite (8) is formed from at least two of said aluminum foils (4), and the composite is fed into a pair of working rollers (9) in a final cold rolling pass, wherein the relief-like surface structure (11a) which is produced in the rolling direction by means of a polishing process has been reduced by 10 to 50% with respect to the average roughness height in one region (6') in a contrast- and motif-dependent manner on at least one roller surface (11) in order to form a motif for a security feature (6). The security feature is transferred onto the aluminum foil face (2a) that faces the roller surface, and the loose composite (8) of aluminum foils (1, 4') is then separated.
Description
PROCESS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF AN ALUMINUM FOIL
WITH INTEGRATED SECURITY FEATURES
The invention relates to a process for the manufacture of an aluminum foil with integrated security features as well as to an aluminum foil with integrated security features manufactured by this process.
Medical products, which are generally packaged with the help of aluminum foils are often a target for forgeries. Forgery-proof features should therefore be as close as possible to the medical product, which means the direct application of security features during the manufacturing process of primary packaging offers the best conditions herefor.
It was therefore attempted - as is common with banknotes ¨ to provide packaging materials for the pharma industry with holograms. It was however discovered that even holograms, although their manufacture is relatively complex, can be forged.
This is where the invention is to provide a remedy.
In accordance with the invention, a process of the above-mentioned type is suggested, whereby an aluminum foil in several cold roll reduction passes is rolled to a thickness of less than 150 p.m and whereby at the same time a texturing extending in rolling direction is created on both faces of the aluminum foil, whereby a loose composite is formed from at least two such aluminum foils, which is guided in a final rolling pass to a working roller pair, in which on at least one roller surface the relief type surface structuring produced by grinding is reduced, depending on contrast and motif in the range of 10-50% relative to the average depth of roughness for the formation of a motif for a security feature which is transferred to the outer face of the aluminum foil facing the roller surface, after which the loose composite of aluminum foils is separated.
Disclosed herein is a method for manufacturing an aluminum foil with integrated security features, wherein an aluminum foil is rolled down to a thickness of less than 150 lam in several cold-rolling passes and wherein a texturing extending in the rolling direction is simultaneously produced on both sides of the aluminum foil. A loose bond of at least two of these aluminum foils is produced and in a last cold-rolling pass fed to a pair of working rolls, in which a relief-like surface structuring produced in the rolling direction by means of grinding is reduced on at least one roll surface in dependence on the contrast and in dependence on the motif in a range between 10 and 50% referred to the average peak-to-valley height in order to realize a motif for a security feature that is transferred onto the side of the aluminum foil facing the roll surface, whereupon the loose bond of the aluminum foils is separated.
In an embodiment, the last cold-rolling pass is carried out with a closed roll gap. In this embodiment, a mixed friction range may be adjusted with the parameters coefficient of friction, dynamic rolling oil viscosity, rolling speed and roll pressure based on the Striebeck curve, and in that longitudinal tensile stresses, which act against the deformation stress of the aluminum foils, are simultaneously exerted upon the aluminum foil in the closed roll gap.
In a further embodiment, the relief-like surface structuring produced on the roll surface in the rolling direction may be reduced with respect to its average peak-to-valley height by means of laser beams for the last cold rolling pass.
In an embodiment, the motif for the security feature is not inadvertently pressed through onto the other side of the aluminum foil due to a separating agent on the aluminum foils used.
In yet another embodiment, the physical and/or chemical properties of the aluminum foils are also preserved in the end product due to the tribological conditions in the closed roll gap.
The invention further relates to an aluminum foil with integrated security features, which is manufactured according to the process of the invention and which has security features to an extent of at most 30% per unit of surface.
la The invention is further described in the following by way of a possible exemplary embodiment for the realization of the invention as well as by way of Figures 1-8.
Figure 1 shows a working roller pair for the execution of the process in accordance with the invention. Figure 2 shows a detailed view of one working roller as well as its surface design, Figure 3 shows the Stribeck curve for the documentation of the relevant process parameters in the roller gap and Figure 4 shows the process sequence of the process for the manufacture of the integrated security features. Figures 5-8 show possible embodiments of the integrated security feature.
The manufacturing process for the aluminum foil 1 in accordance with the invention with integrated security features 6 consists first of all of the sub-processes of strand casting, homogenization, hot rolling, cold rolling and subsequent annealing above the recrystallization temperature. This is followed by the foil cold rolling process. The aluminum foil 4 is thereby rolled out in several cold rolling passes to a thickness of less than 150 [tm, by which simultaneously on both outer faces 4a, 4b of the aluminum foil a texturing 5a, 5b is created in rolling direction, as shown in Figure 4b. This structured roughness formed in rolling direction leads to a directed reflection of the incident light, so that because of this directed reflection the outer faces 4a and 4b have a glossy appearance.
The process is modified for the last rolling pass as shown in Figure 1 as well as Figure 4A, whereby a working roller pair 9 is used in which at least one roller surface has a motif 6' for the security feature. This motif 6' is produced in that the relief-like surface structuring 11 a which is produced in rolling direction by grinding, is reduced depending on the contrast and motif in the range of 10-50% relative to the average roughness depth.
This can be carried out, for example, by the action of laser beams as shown in Figures 2b, 2c and 4c. For the last cold rolling step, a loose composite 8 is formed, for example, from two glossy aluminum foils 4 by way of a release agent 7, as shown in Figures 1 and 4b.
This loose composite 8 is fed into the closed roller gap 9', which is formed between the two working rollers 10, 11. The motif for the security feature 6 is now transferred onto the outer surface 4a of the aluminum foil which is directed towards the working roller. A
random texturing which appears dull is now formed in the region of the security feature 6 of the aluminum foil 1 ¨ see Figure 4d ¨ which is visibly distinguished from the remaining outer surface region 2a with glossy appearance and directed texturing 3.
Because of this

la The invention is further described in the following by way of a possible exemplary embodiment for the realization of the invention as well as by way of Figures 1-8.
Figure 1 shows a working roller pair for the execution of the process in accordance with the invention. Figure 2 shows a detailed view of one working roller as well as its surface design, Figure 3 shows the Stribeck curve for the documentation of the relevant process parameters in the roller gap and Figure 4 shows the process sequence of the process for the manufacture of the integrated security features. Figures 5-8 show possible embodiments of the integrated security feature.
The manufacturing process for the aluminum foil 1 in accordance with the invention with integrated security features 6 consists first of all of the sub-processes of strand casting, homogenization, hot rolling, cold rolling and subsequent annealing above the recrystallization temperature. This is followed by the foil cold rolling process. The aluminum foil 4 is thereby rolled out in several cold rolling passes to a thickness of less than 150 [tm, by which simultaneously on both outer faces 4a, 4b of the aluminum foil a texturing 5a, 5b is created in rolling direction, as shown in Figure 4b. This structured roughness formed in rolling direction leads to a directed reflection of the incident light, so that because of this directed reflection the outer faces 4a and 4b have a glossy appearance.
The process is modified for the last rolling pass as shown in Figure 1 as well as Figure 4A, whereby a working roller pair 9 is used in which at least one roller surface has a motif 6' for the security feature. This motif 6' is produced in that the relief-like surface structuring 11 a which is produced in rolling direction by grinding, is reduced depending on the contrast and motif in the range of 10-50% relative to the average roughness depth.
This can be carried out, for example, by the action of laser beams as shown in Figures 2b, 2c and 4c. For the last cold rolling step, a loose composite 8 is formed, for example, from two glossy aluminum foils 4 by way of a release agent 7, as shown in Figures 1 and 4b.
This loose composite 8 is fed into the closed roller gap 9', which is formed between the two working rollers 10, 11. The motif for the security feature 6 is now transferred onto the outer surface 4a of the aluminum foil which is directed towards the working roller. A
random texturing which appears dull is now formed in the region of the security feature 6 of the aluminum foil 1 ¨ see Figure 4d ¨ which is visibly distinguished from the remaining outer surface region 2a with glossy appearance and directed texturing 3.
Because of this
2 random texturing, a diffused reflection of the incident light occurs in the region of the security feature 6, so that the region of the security feature 6 appears dull.
The outer surface 2b of the aluminum foil 1 which is directed away from the roller surface is covered by the release agent 7 as well as the second aluminum foil ¨ referred to as 4' for reasons of clarity. The contact sides of the two foils are identified by the roller grooves of the proceeding rolling step and by way of the roughness newly generated during the coupled rolling, which roughness is primarily directed transverse to the rolling direction. A
diffused scattering occurs because of the random texturization of these surfaces. After the cold rolling, the loose composite of the aluminum foil 1 with integrated security feature 6, manufactured in accordance with the invention, and the aluminum foil 4' is separated.
The aluminum foil 4' has on its outer surface 4'a directional structuring 5'a, so that this outer surface appears glossy, whereas the second outer surface 4'b has a random structuring and therefore provides a dull surface.
However, when both working rollers are provided with a motif 6', a further aluminum foil 1 with integrated security feature 6 is produced in place of the aluminum foil 4'.
The foil rolling process underlying the process in accordance with the invention belongs to the subcategory "flat rolling" and is defined especially through process end products with a thickness of 20 Jim. The cold rolling process in this thickness range requires the specific application of surface roughness values on the tools in combination with the procedural liquid which create the tribologic conditions in the rotor cap required for the plastic deformation.
Reference is made to the Stribeck curve ¨ see Figure 3 ¨ for the documentation of the process parameters relevant for the procedure. The co-efficient of friction is represented on the X axis and the function of speed, pressure and viscosity is represented on the Y axis. The mixed friction range is required for the cold rolling of foils. In a region of little lubrication, a continuous contact with the rolled material occurs: a reduction of the material in this region is not possible and leads in the following to poor surface properties and damage of the roller. In a region of hydrodynamic lubrication ¨ see in this respect Reference no. 14 in Figure 2a ¨ the working roller 11 starts to float so that a directed control of the rolling process and especially of the reduction of the material

A
diffused scattering occurs because of the random texturization of these surfaces. After the cold rolling, the loose composite of the aluminum foil 1 with integrated security feature 6, manufactured in accordance with the invention, and the aluminum foil 4' is separated.
The aluminum foil 4' has on its outer surface 4'a directional structuring 5'a, so that this outer surface appears glossy, whereas the second outer surface 4'b has a random structuring and therefore provides a dull surface.
However, when both working rollers are provided with a motif 6', a further aluminum foil 1 with integrated security feature 6 is produced in place of the aluminum foil 4'.
The foil rolling process underlying the process in accordance with the invention belongs to the subcategory "flat rolling" and is defined especially through process end products with a thickness of 20 Jim. The cold rolling process in this thickness range requires the specific application of surface roughness values on the tools in combination with the procedural liquid which create the tribologic conditions in the rotor cap required for the plastic deformation.

The co-efficient of friction is represented on the X axis and the function of speed, pressure and viscosity is represented on the Y axis. The mixed friction range is required for the cold rolling of foils. In a region of little lubrication, a continuous contact with the rolled material occurs: a reduction of the material in this region is not possible and leads in the following to poor surface properties and damage of the roller. In a region of hydrodynamic lubrication ¨ see in this respect Reference no. 14 in Figure 2a ¨ the working roller 11 starts to float so that a directed control of the rolling process and especially of the reduction of the material
3 thickness is no longer possible. The range of mixed friction can thereby be adjusted by varying the parameters V. P and N.
Only in the mixed friction range is it possible to generate longitudinal and pressure tensions which load up the material past the shape change resistance in order to thereby lead to a reshaping, which means reduction of the material thickness. The adjustment of the parameters of the rolling oil 12, which are required for the reshaping process, namely viscosity, pressure, stability, lubricant effect, is carried out by the precise selection of a base oil, namely a kerosene-like, highly refined hydrocarbon with an exactly defined viscosity and by the addition of about 5 volume percent rolling oil additives which on the one hand bring the pressure stability of the medium to a specific level but also significantly influence the friction conditions in the roller gap 9'.
The coordination of these parameters represents the basic requirement for the process in accordance with the invention. These parameters are therefore permanently monitored and readjusted. In the concrete application, the concentration of the rolling oil additives is measured directly through sampling from the buffer container of the roller rack and maintained within an exactly defined range by way of additive adjustment. For exact dosage control, the processing liquid is sprayed onto the working rollers 10, 11 by way of a nozzle beam.
The mixed friction conditions in the roller gap 9' are required, since only a defined friction coefficient enables the application of longitudinal tension stress.
This longitudinal tension stress acts against the deformation strength and is during the foil rolling the essential factor for the achievement of the deformation resistance. A
thickness reduction without this longitudinal tension stress is not possible from a technical point of view.
During cold rolling with a closed roller gap the reduction resulting from the process and thereby the band thickness in the roller output is controlled by way of the primary parameter of entry tension, since it acts against the deformation resistance of the aluminum foil 4. After achievement of the maximum entry tension, the roller speed is used as the secondary control parameter in order to vary the lubricant film thickness (hydrodynamic lubricant input).

After achievement of the maximum entry tension, the roller speed is used as the secondary control parameter in order to vary the lubricant film thickness (hydrodynamic lubricant input).
4 During cold rolling, a mixed friction condition is desired which is characterized by the simultaneous occurrence of boundary friction and liquid friction. During liquid friction, which is the hydrodynamic lubrication 14, both surfaces are completely separated from one another. The transferred shear stress depends on the dynamic viscosity of the lubricant and the speed differential between the working roller and the aluminum foil. In contrast, during the boundary friction both surfaces are separated only by a lubricant layer which is only a few molecule layers thick, whereby the viscosity of the lubricant plays only a subordinate role. The ratio between boundary friction and liquid friction over the length of the roller gap depends on the layer thickness of the input lubricant and the roughness of the working roller and the aluminum foil The mechanism for influencing the lubricant film thickness 13 depends on the hydrodynamic lubricant input, the input of lubricant into the roughness valleys 1Ib as well as the attachment of lubricant particles, see Figure 2b.
The hydrodynamic lubricant input 14 primarily occurs in the input zone to the roller gap 9'. The input zone thereby forms a wedge shaped gap 12, whereby the working roller 11 and the aluminum foil 4 as limiting surfaces during their movement in direction of the wedge tip pull along lubricant 13 in the form of a film, see Figure 2a.
The hydrodynamic pressure buildup thereby caused in the rolling oil is dependent for the rolling speed, the viscosity of the lubricant and the geometry of the roller gap. As soon as the yield criterion for the aluminum foils 4 is fulfilled, they are plastically deformed and the layer thickness of the lubricant present at this location is pulled into the roller gap 9'.
In the roller gap 9', lubricant is input into the surface depressions, the so-called roughness valleys 11b, on the working roller 11 and the aluminum foil 4, see Figure 4c.
This process depends, apart from the oil storage volume of the surfaces, also on the orientation of the surface structure. This mechanism can be used for the directed change of the friction conditions and in the following serves to create a changed surface texture because of the liquid friction generated. This occurs because of the missing contact with the working roller and the thereby missing texturing in rolling direction.
Boundary layers are formed on the surface of the working roller and the aluminum foil, which are carried into the roller gap 9', because of physiosorption and chemisorption of lubricant components, for example surface active additives. This mechanism is

5 influenced by the roller material and the rolled material as well as the chemical composition of the rolling oil 12 and its temperature. Since the temperature and the composition of the rolling oil 12 with respect to the accretion of lubricant components in the process in accordance with the invention are not different from the conventional cold rolling process, this mechanism is not further discussed.
However, it is the combination of the above effects, which by way of directed and partial destruction of the ground-in structure of the working roller makes it possible to bring the lubricant film thickness and the associated changes of the tribologic conditions in the roller gap from the mixed friction range in the region of the motif into the hydrodynamic range. This leads to a floating of the working roller and a random texture is generated which differentiates barely measurable in the measured roughness but is optically clearly distinguished because of the reflection properties of the remaining surface regions which through the partial contact with the working roller have a structured surface in rolling direction.
The produced aluminum foil 1 with integrated security features 6 is copied with optical processes in several passes for the purposes of analysis. For the clear illustration of the surface structure, representative foil samples are produced in the format A4. For the measurement of the surface structure of the tools required for the manufacture, epoxy resin imprints of the surface are produced and measured by way of a reflected light microscope and infinite focus.
It is now possible with the help of this analytical process to carry out an optical identification for confirmation of the security features 6 produced in accordance with the invention. Figure 5 shows the illustration of a security feature 6 consisting of the lettering security in combination with the illustration of a staff of Asclepius customary in the medical industry. Of course, the latter is here illustrated only by way of example and without claim to any exclusionary rights. At any rate, it is important to point out that the outer surface illustrated in Figure 5b, which during the rolling process was directed away from the roller surface, includes no undesired negative print motifs whatsoever of the previously mentioned security feature.

A fantasy illustration of a security feature 6 is shown in Figure 6 whereby in the section b, see Figure 6b, it is apparent that in the region of the security feature 6 a dull
6 surface is present while in the respectively bordering surface regions the structuring 3 in longitudinal direction continues to be maintained, whereby the surface appears glossy.
Figure 7 also shows an image taken by way of scanning electron microscopy of a security feature 6. In the region of the security feature, the surface is dull, whereby in the bordering surface regions the surface appears glossy. The detailed views according to Figures 7a or 7b show that this different effect is caused by the surface being rough in the region of the security feature 6 while it is structured in longitudinal direction in the bordering regions.
This applies analogous to the image shown in Figure 8 of an aluminum foil 1 manufactured in accordance with the invention with the integrated security feature 6 Security taken according to the infinitive focus analysis. From the illustrations of Figure 8a, 8b, 8c and 8d, it is also apparent that a random texturing is present in the region of the security feature 6, whereas in the bordering regions a directed structuring 13 is present.
In summary, the following essential differentiating features for the exact identification of the process in accordance with the invention are listed:
- Direct application of the security feature 6 and simultaneous with the reduction of the thickness of the aluminum foil 4; thus, no additional processing step is required;
- High operating efficiency through high speeds during the manufacture of the aluminum foil in accordance with the invention;
- More complicated imitation due to the complexity of the basic process;
- Clear association of the process with the rolling process because of the form and placement of the surface structuring 3;
- No possibility of removal of the security features 6 without destruction of the surface of the aluminum foil;
- No strikethrough of the security feature 6 the back side of the aluminum foil 1;
- No changes of the physical and/or chemical properties of the aluminum foil 4 such as roughness, foldability, stretch, tensile strength and wettability;
- Change of the surface configuration in the range of the fourth order, measurable by way of the average roughness depth RZ;

7 - No significant change of the arithmetic mean roughness index RA in the region of the security feature 6;
- No shape change in the range of the first degree (shape changes such as unevenness or out of roundness), second degree (waviness) or third degree (grooves).
In the cold rolling used in accordance with the invention, optical features, such as the security feature 6 are applied by the directed application of differing surface textures of the aluminum foils in the range of the fourth order. No significant difference in the roughness depth can be determined, but a difference in the type of texturing of grooves and scaling is achieved. A change of the shape of the aluminum foil is not detectable so that a strikethrough to the foil backside does also not occur.
The graphic relief type shaping of flexible packaging materials with the help of conventional manufacturing processes and finishing technologies, for example embossment (impression processes) are significantly differentiated from the process in accordance with the invention with respect to the starting material, technology and manufacturing processes while as the optical or mechanical properties of the end product, since in an impression process the motif to be embossed often strikes though in an undesired manner to the backside of the embossed material.
During the rolling in the course of the process in accordance with the invention, the surface structure of the aluminum foil 4 is changed during the mechanical working, whereby it is made possible to develop on the surface one or more security features 6. An imitation by way of conventional finishing technologies is not possible or is easily identifiable as such. The manufacture and the further processing of the aluminum foil 1 in accordance with the invention with integrated security features 6 is, with respect to the number of manufacturing steps, not distinguished from the processing of conventional, rolled aluminum foils and can thereby be easily implemented in the conventional manufacturing process for pharma products.
