Description

The safety element that can activate
Technical field of the present invention
Theme of the present invention is a kind of safety element---colored fibre for example; for the protection of value document and/or secure file; wherein; safety element has at least one luminous and/or property material light absorbing and/or scattered light; in addition, the invention still further relates to the manufacture method of safety element, a kind of value document that comprises safety element and/or secure file and a kind of method for its manufacture.
Background technology
By the known a large amount of safety elements for the protection of value document and/or secure file of prior art.Especially use colored fibre, metallic plate, thread or fragment.Safety element is introduced into during manufacture in file and can be identified based on its shape in the finished product file.For example, insert luminous colored fibre in bank note.In the situation that this is by natural lighting, does not perceive or be difficult to aware.In the situation that, by ultraviolet lighting, the luminous of property material based on being included in colored fibre can clearly identify colored fibre.
The manufacture method of known a kind of (hofbildend) colored fibre for the manufacture of forming garden from DE371948A.In the dry run of the paper of inserting this colored fibre, colored fibre sends color, and forms a garden around colored fibre, thereby can easily identify removing of fiber.
In the time can manufacturing safety element dividually and efficiently with file, safety element is favourable.Described inserting while manufacturing by file, the space structure setting that can produce safety element, it is in the situation that thread is regular, in the situation that colored fibre is random.In the situation that stimulating, ultraviolet ray can easily verify and be difficult to technically adjust described space structure setting.
Problem and task of the present invention according to prior art
Disadvantageously verified, although can be efficiently---for example, a supplier, that manufactures safety element, file manufacturer that and also must guarantee the safety of safety element when file manufacturer transports.These requirements cause the expense increased.Especially possible for the adulterator, the safety element that use is stolen is for the forgery of file.In addition, increase in the following manner security risk: more people, or rather, not only safety element manufacturer (supplier) that and also file manufacturer that, know the technical specification of safety element.
Therefore, task of the present invention is to realize that a kind of can the manufacture efficiently still can be in the situation that the security requirement obviously reduced be manufactured and the safety element of transmission.
The present invention describes with preferred embodiment
Described task will be by safety element according to claim 1 and the method for its manufacture according to claim 14 and by value document according to claim 15 and/or secure file with according to claim 16ly solve for the manufacture of method.Preferred embodiment explanation in the dependent claims of the present invention.
Security element according the invention is for the protection of value document and/or secure file.Described safety element comprises a kind of matrix and at least one property material, when by electromagnetic radiation, carrying out suitable excitation, described at least one property material is for example luminous in ultraviolet spectral limit, infrared ray spectral limit and/or limit of visible spectrum and/or absorb light and/or for example at the ultraviolet spectral limit, infrared ray spectral limit and/or limit of visible spectrum inscattering light.Safety element has a kind of feature that is applicable to verify value document and/or secure file, and described feature is luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering or the light diffuse reflection of safety element.Safety element has the first color state and is different from the second color state of the first color state, in described the first color state, at least one property material is luminous and/or absorb light and/or scattered light, and in described the second color state, at least one property material is luminous and/or absorb light and/or scattered light.Therefore, when authenticating documents, can easily between two states, be distinguished.By activating, safety element can be irreversibly from the first color state conversion (can activate) to the second color state, and wherein, the first color state does not have (setting) feature of the checking of being applicable to.On the contrary, the second color state of safety element is the state that is applicable to authenticating documents or arranges for this reason.This means, only in the second color state the luminous and/or light absorption of safety element and/or light scattering just allow in the above or the inside apply or insert the value document of described safety element and/or secure file authenticity checking and therefore find and therefore stop forgery or the fraud of safety element or at least significantly make its difficulty that becomes.That is to say, so design and verification method and in case of necessity for its device, make and only have when safety element is in the second color state, the authenticity of their ability display file.
Realize thus: at first manufacture safety element, described safety element has the first luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering in the first color state, and it is not the authenticity that is arranged for authenticating documents.But can identify, the first luminous and/or light absorption in the first color state and/or light scattering are different from the second luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering in the second color state, the authenticity of described the second color state display file, thereby safety element is before it is activated into set the second color state for checking, can be in the situation that there is no the manufactured and transportation of special safety measure, because the application of safety element also be not suitable for file in the first color state in.The mode of the checking of the authenticity by the file that only can realize comprising safety element in the second color state of safety element, guarantee: even, in the situation that safety element is lost in the first color state, also can successfully stop and use it to there is the file of this safety element in the second color state for reconstruction.
Of the present invention one preferred embodiment in, the first color state and the second color state are distinguished by the energy of luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering, in other words, color (frequency, the wavelength) difference of before activating and afterwards luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering.To this alternatively or addedly, the energy of the exciting light that luminous/light absorption/light scattering is required, that is to say, the absorption position of safety element also can differ from one another.For example, safety element can be luminous in visible-range, thus the first color state can be for example by glowing given and the second color state is given by green light.Alternatively, safety element is also can be in the ultraviolet spectral limit or in the infrared ray spectral limit luminous and/or absorb light and/or scattered light.Frequency or the wavelength of the radiation that also can launch by (weight) are distinguished this two states.Difference aspect the composition of the spectrum of the radiation that basically, color state can be launched at (weight).In addition, in the first color state luminous/luminous/light absorption/light scattering that light absorption/light scattering basically also can be in the first spectral region (ultraviolet ray, visible ray and/or infrared ray) and in the second color state also can be in same spectral region or another spectral region (ultraviolet, visible ray and/or infrared ray) in or also can be additionally in another spectral region (ultraviolet ray, visible ray, infrared ray).In addition, also can only by the intensity of luminous/light absorption/light scattering, distinguish this two kinds of color state, for example, there is low-intensity and there is high strength in the first color state in the second color state.
According to the present invention, luminous/light absorption/light scattering can be the radiation of arbitrary type (weight) emission basically, wherein, and by luminous radiation of launching a kind of luminescence generated by light (passing through photon excitation) preferably.Can distinguish fluorescence and phosphorescence.
Two kinds of color state of safety element are preferably given by the color state that is included in the property material in safety element.When safety element comprises a kind of unique luminous and/or property material that absorb and/or scattering, two kinds of color state of safety element can be given by two kinds of color state of described unique property material.Especially can consider different crystal structures as the first and second color state of described property material maybe can consider dimer as the first color state and monomer as the second color state.But safety element can comprise more than a kind of property material, described property material contributes to luminous and/or light absorption and/or the light scattering of safety element at least one color state of two kinds of color state of safety element.
In addition, according to the present invention, that safety element is interpreted as the entity object manufacture that can be used as separation and can be integrated into during fabrication the element in a value document and/or secure file.At this, especially be interpreted as colored fibre metallic plate, thread or fragment.But, alternatively, at this, also can include the part of value document and/or secure file, during it also was not present in file before forming and only just form hereof in manufacture process, for example, the marking on file level.Safety element for example can relate to a kind of film or film composite, and at least one property material according to the present invention is placed in described film or film composite or subsequently and for example is applied on described film or film composite by printing technology during fabrication.In addition, also relating to a kind of substrate---paper for example is placed in paper according to colored fibre metallic plate of the present invention, thread or fragment.

Of the present invention another preferred embodiment in, in the situation that do not have external pressure irreversibly can activate secure file, that is to say, for the activation from the first color state to the second color state, need to comprise the activation condition that can avoid external pressure.Therefore, advantageously, be chosen in enforceable activation in the situation without external pressure.For example, can use thus in the situation that applying pressure can be switched to the property material of the first color state, for example, as accounted for the pressure dominating when being extruded with color fibre.In the situation that without external pressure, especially in the situation that heating, the time of described color state by a segment length be transformed in the situation that without the external pressure heat power stable the second color state, for example,, in the situation that change between a kind of two kinds of crystalline states (crystal structure) of property material or between coherent condition (monomer/dimer/tripolymer etc.).
Of the present invention another preferred embodiment in, can activate safety element by heat treatment, that is to say, safety element needs heat treatment (in the situation that the temperature increased with respect to room temperature is processed) for from the first color state, being activated to the second color state.
Of the present invention another preferred embodiment in, can be in the situation that the temperature of at least 40 ℃ and the highest 100 ℃ irreversibly activates safety element.Especially can that is to say at least 50 ℃ and the highest 90 ℃ and especially preferably at the temperature at least 50 ℃ and the highest 85 ℃, irreversibly activate safety element, need to heat-treat at a temperature in the said temperature scope, for activating.
Of the present invention another preferred embodiment in, can irreversibly activate safety element by electromagnetic radiation, especially ultraviolet radiation, that is to say, safety element has this class feature: for its irreversible activation, and need to be by the irradiation of electromagnetic radiation, especially ultraviolet radiation.Safety element preferably needs ultraviolet-A radiation (400 to 320nm), particularly preferably the irradiation by 365nm is used for activating.This radiation preferably by the irradiation of UV-B or ultraviolet C, do not activated, because may change matrix and therefore may damage the durability of value document and/or secure file.
Of the present invention another preferred embodiment in, can that is to say by by chemical reagent, processing and irreversibly activate safety element, safety element has this class feature: for irreversible activation, need to process by chemical reagent.For example, especially with the water of steam form, can be suitable as chemical reagent.Therefore, can under steam atmosphere, realize activating.Steam atmosphere is interpreted as the air humidity that is at least 60%, preferably at least 80%.
Chemically sensitized another kind of form is that leucobase is transformed into dyestuff.Exemplarily mention the manufacture of crystal violet, wherein, by acidifying, by colourless a kind of coloured kiton colors of interstage generation.For this reason, the gas atmosphere or the vapor atmosphere that safety element can be exposed to for example comprise hydrogen chloride, formic acid and/or acetic acid.
Of the present invention another preferred embodiment in, can at the temperature of at least 40 ℃ and the highest 100 ℃ and in steam atmosphere, implement to activate.Especially in the situation that the relative air humidity of the temperature of 85 ℃ and 85% is realized activation.So select in these cases safety element, make under these conditions and just activate.
Also can under the corresponding condition of the combination with above-mentioned condition, activate safety element.Especially can be in the situation that heat treatment and/or process and irreversibly to activate safety element by electromagnetic radiation and/or by chemical reagent.
Safety element can comprise a kind of unique, be applicable to the property material that checking is equipped with the authenticity of the value document of safety element and/or secure file.Alternatively, also can comprise the various features material.Have a kind of preferably being present in two kinds of color state that differ from one another at least in property material in security element according the invention, wherein, the activation from the first color state to the second color state is irreversible.When having the various features material in safety element, each property material or all property materials can have respectively two kinds of color state, that is to say, they are differently luminous and/or absorb light and/or scattered light in two states, or various property materials or all property materials can have two kinds of color state, wherein, relevant a kind of property material is luminous and/or absorb light and/or scattered light and not luminous and/or absorb light and/or scattered light in another kind of state in a kind of state, or various property materials also can remain unchanged fully when activating safety element.
For example, a kind of First Characteristic material that irreversibly can activate has the first state and the second state, there is the first luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering at material described in described the first state, at material described in described the second state, there is and/or light absorption and/or light scattering feature different second luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering luminous from first.It is such that the difference of property material luminous/light absorption/light scattering in these two kinds of color state can as above regard to safety element itself, for example the difference of the energy by neutralizing luminous in the second color state/light absorption/light scattering in the first color state and/or given by the difference of intensity in the first color state and the second color state.Alternatively, the first property material that can activate can have the first state and the second state, show luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering at material described in described the first state, in described the second state, property material does not show luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering.Alternatively, the first property material that can activate can have the first state and the second state, do not show luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering at material described in described the first state, at material described in described the second state, show luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering.In described latter two situation, preferably there is at least another Second Characteristic material in safety element, it is being transformed into the second color state from the first color state equally with in the identical like that activation situation of First Characteristic material, thereby makes safety element can adopt two kinds of different color state.
Therefore, can also comprise the Second Characteristic material except the First Characteristic material in safety element.Correspondingly, described Second Characteristic material can be activated and equally as the First Characteristic material, there is different states aspect luminous/light absorption/light scattering, wherein, the difference of the correspondence of these two kinds of property materials needn't change in the same manner: for example, the First Characteristic material can show the first luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering and show that in the second state the second luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering and Second Characteristic material do not show luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering and show a kind of luminous and/or light absorption and/or light scattering in the second state in the first state in the first state, or contrary.Can realize other combinations.Alternatively, also can so provide the Second Characteristic material, make described Second Characteristic material not there are two kinds of different color state.The variation of Second Characteristic material does not occur in other words, when activating safety element.Correspondingly, the Second Characteristic material can or with independently (weight) emission of the activation of safety element or absorb determine constant luminous/absorb light/scattered light, the Second Characteristic material do not launch fully or do not absorb any luminous/absorb light/scattered light.In addition, also can comprise the 3rd, the 4th and other property material, they or may reside in two kinds of color state or be not present in separately in two kinds of color state.
The mixing of all property materials in safety element causes producing two kinds of whole structures (the synthetic color of safety element) in color state, and described whole structure single effect (color of character pair material) in corresponding states forms.
If safety element is, it comprise a spatial decomposition and to the security feature of at least one information coding, for example in value document and/or secure file or the dimensional printed chart of top personalization, can select other schemes for the design safety element.For example, safety element can embody the first information and embody the second information in the second color state in the first color state.For example, can identify by the first information, safety element does not also have, in the state in a kind of activation, to that is to say, must be counterfeit.For example, safety element can be comprised of two dimensional printed charts, wherein, the first dimensional printed chart is luminous and/or absorption light and/or scattered light under verification condition, or rather, not only when safety element also is not activated, and all luminous and/or absorb light and/or scattered light when safety element activates, and the second dimensional printed chart is only just luminous in the checking situation and/or absorb light and/or scattered light when safety element activates, on the contrary, if it is not safety element also is not activated, luminous and/or absorb light and/or scattered light.For example, the first dimensional printed chart can be the first ordered series of numbers.Two dimensional printed charts can be the second ordered series of numbers different and the first ordered series of numbers together.In the situation that identify correct ordered series of numbers, file is verified as really, and the ordered series of numbers documentary evidence only provided by the first dimensional printed chart is forged.In this case, can consider that information additional in file, for checking, in the situation that additionally comprise described information, makes authenticity or the counterfeit of identified documentation by a kind of suitable algorithm.In another embodiment, can make change color and a kind of coded message direct correlation when activating safety element: for example, file may be before activating green light and glowing after activation.Safety element for example is comprised of the word " rot " of printing in this case.Before activating, printed words " rot " manifests with green and manifests with redness after activating.
Of the present invention another preferred embodiment in, by extruding, at least one property material is inserted in matrix.As in the above for as shown in the example of polyamide like that, this has the following advantages: property material being uniformly distributed and high efficiency manufacture in matrix.
Of the present invention another preferred embodiment in, select property material from following family: described family comprises benzoxazinone and its derivative and salicylic acid and its derivative, xanthene dye---as fluorescein and rhodamine 6G,
