Description

Optical anti-counterfeiting transfer film and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of optical anti-counterfeiting, in particular to an optical anti-counterfeiting transfer film, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The optical anti-counterfeiting transfer film is widely applied to the anti-counterfeiting fields of bank notes, high-end card (such as Unionpay card) and the like, and the optical anti-counterfeiting structure is generally transferred to the surfaces of target substrates such as bank cards, banknote paper and the like in a hot stamping and thermal transfer mode. Currently, as disclosed in CN203937262a, regardless of the implementation of the special purpose functional layer, the general structure of the anti-counterfeiting heat transfer film used in the packaging field is generally: PET film, release layer, hot molding layer or printing ink layer, cladding material and hot melt adhesive layer.
However, in the fields of high-end cards and banknote security, the imaging layer of the optical security transfer film is very difficult to process, and the fine optical security transfer film such as the micro-mirror disclosed in CN105313529A, the micro-lenses disclosed in CN1552589A and US 489236, the mirror disclosed in CN103832114A, the blazed grating disclosed in CN103847289A, the sub-wavelength relief structure disclosed in CN103448411A, CN104385800 and CN102514443a, the surface relief structure disclosed in CN103576216A, CN102903298A, the diffraction microstructure disclosed in CN104249584A and the like are more complex in the replication structure, the requirement on replication fineness is high, the replication depth-to-width ratio is large, and a method needs to be found to meet the replication requirements of all different types of microstructures. Thermal molding, however, cannot satisfy the duplication of the above-described structure because of the limitation of duplication depth and duplication loss.
For this reason, CN102344704a implements the processing of the above-mentioned fine security structure by means of UV molding. However, the prior art is mainly applied to non-transfer film products, and can face extremely troublesome difficulties in preparing anti-counterfeiting transfer films. The fine microstructure needs to have good adhesion with a substrate during UV (ultraviolet) molding so as to meet the requirement of molding replication and transfer.
However, the release layer of the current anti-counterfeiting heat transfer film does not provide good adhesion during UV molding. Therefore, the peeling value of the typical hot stamping film is very low, so that the bonding force between the cured UV coating and the template is often large during UV molding, the problem of sticking the template exists, and the UV molding process cannot be successfully completed on the release film.
CN105313516A adopts a release layer with a softening point of 95-120 ℃, the bonding force between the release layer and the UV molding layer is large when the temperature is less than 95 ℃, and the release layer and the UV molding layer are easy to peel when the hot stamping temperature is greater than 120 ℃. However, this method is primarily directed to cat eye films for use in packaging applications. In the fields of cards and bank notes, the fine anti-counterfeiting microstructure is more complex in variety, large in copying depth-to-width ratio and high in copying precision requirement, and is difficult to copy, so that better adhesion fastness is required during UV copying, and the scheme of CN105313516A cannot meet the UV molding requirement of the fine structure. Meanwhile, in the field of cards and banknotes, the thermoprinting base materials are of heat-sensitive type, such as paper, BOPP, PVC and the like, lower thermoprinting temperature is required, when the thermoprinting temperature is lower than 120 ℃, the scheme of CN105313516A is difficult to completely strip, and the thermoprinting stripping is incomplete, so that the method cannot be applied to the fields of cards and banknotes.
Therefore, there is a need to develop anti-counterfeit transfer film products that can meet the needs of the field of identification cards and banknotes.
