  • Fig. 2 shows a plan view of a portion of the security thread 12
  • Fig. 3 represents a cross section through the security thread along the line III-III of Fig. 2 represents.
  • the security thread 12 includes a thin-film element 20 with a color-shift effect, which is applied to a transparent carrier foil 22.
  • the optical Variable thin-film element 20 comprises a reflective layer 24 formed by an opaque aluminum layer, an ultrathin spacer layer 26 applied to the reflective layer, and a partially transparent absorber layer 28, eg of chromium.
  • the color shift effect of the thin film element 20 is due to interference effects due to multiple reflections in the different sublayers 24, 26, 28 of the element.
  • One half of the security thread 12 forms a covering area 32, in which a semi-transparent ink layer 34 is printed on the thin-film element 20.
  • the optically variable layer 20 is present without printed ink layer.
  • the thin-film element 20 and the color layer 34 are matched to one another in such a way that they produce substantially the same color impression at a perpendicular viewing angle.
  • the color impression of the thin-film element 20 at a normal viewing angle is also referred to below as a vertical tilting color.
  • the color impression of the thin-film element 20 changes in the uncovered region 36, while the color impression in the covering region 32 remains virtually unchanged.
  • the visual conspicuousness of the color-shift effect is significantly enhanced because the human eye reacts more strongly to the color differences that occur than to the color change per se. The viewer's attention is therefore drawn even more to the security feature.
  • the operation of the security element is also self-explanatory, so that it can easily be checked for authenticity by anyone.
  • a semi-transparent ink layer 34 leads to an additional alignment of the color impression of the thin-film element 20 in the uncovered region 36 and the color impression of the semitransparent ink layer 34 in the overlap region 32. While the color location of the printed semitransparent ink layer 34 can be set very accurately and reproducibly, this varies vertical tilting color, in which the thin-film element appears at a normal viewing angle, by manufacturing fluctuations usually something of security element to security element. These color variations, which are due to the extremely high sensitivity of the color visible at a normal angle to the layer thickness of the dielectric spacer layer, are small, but quite perceptible to the naked eye.
  • the vertical tilt color of the thin-film element 20 partially shines through the color layer 34 and contributes to the overall color impression of the security element in the overlap area 32 when viewed perpendicularly. Now varies the vertical tilt color of the thin-film element 20 in the uncovered region 36 of security element to security element something, then the color impression in the covering area 32 changes accordingly by the translucent component. The overall color impression in the overlapping region 32 thus adapts to the color impression in the uncovered region 36.
  • Fig. 4 The contribution of the vertical tilt color to the overall color impression is in the diagram of Fig. 4 illustrating the reflection spectrum 40 of the thin-film element 20 in the uncovered region 36 at a perpendicular viewing angle. Also shown is the reflection spectrum 42 of the combination of thin-film element 20 and semitransparent ink layer 34 in the covering region 32. It can be clearly seen that the color impression of the thin-film element 20 remains visible through the semitransparent ink layer 34 and amounts to the overall color impression. For vertical viewing, in spite of the unavoidable small thickness variations of the spacer layer, it is possible to achieve an excellent match of the color impressions in the two areas.
  • the semitransparent ink layer 34 is highly translucent only at near vertical viewing angles. At an oblique viewing angle, it reflects significantly more light compared to perpendicular viewing so that the light portion of the underlying thin film element 20 is forced into the background.
  • the translucent color contribution of the thin-film element 20 in the overlapping region 32 contributes to the equalization of the color impressions of the two adjacent regions.
  • the translucent color contribution occurs in the background, so that then the color-constant contribution of the semitransparent color layer 34 dominates the overall impression of the covering region 32.
  • the color contribution of the semitransparent color layer is now based on an in Fig. 10 illustrated transmission spectrum 46 of a color printed, transparent plastic film explained in more detail.
  • the semi-transparent ink layer in the example a red ink, has a very good transparency in the red spectral range (about 90%), while z. B. in the green spectral range at a wavelength of about 550 nm only has a light transmittance of about 15%.
  • the effect according to the invention becomes effective precisely due to this different spectral transmission.
  • the color impression of the semitransparent ink layer in the overlapping region of an underlying tilting color which appears magenta, for example, at a perpendicular viewing angle, fits well, since the semitransparent ink layer in the relevant spectral region is almost transparent. If, however, the security element is viewed at a different tilt angle, the color impression of the tilt color changes, for example, from magenta to green.
  • the semitransparent color layer has a much lower transparency in this wavelength range, so that the translucent color contribution of the tilting color passes into the background and instead the color-constant contribution of the overlying color layer dominates.
  • a further advantage of using semitransparent color layers is the alignment of the brilliance of the two partial areas 32 and 36.
  • the reflection layer 24 of the thin-film element 20 is usually designed to reflect about 90% of the incident light, the color-shift effect therefore occurring in the uncovered area 36 very bright and with high brilliance in appearance.
  • the luminance value or the L value in the CIELab color space, which essentially indicates the proportion of the reflected light, is therefore very high in the uncovered area 36. Common inks achieve such high brilliance and high L-values.
  • the interference layer structure of the thin film element 20 is extremely flat, so that the uncovered region 36 also has a high gloss and acts almost like a colored mirror.
  • the gloss of printing inks is much lower in comparison. For opaque inks, this difference in glossiness is evident to a viewer, even if the color loci (again expressed by a and b in the CIELab system) are nearly identical.
  • the use of a semi-transparent ink layer 34 increases the gloss in the coverage area 32 thanks to the translucent high-gloss thin-film element 20, so that the visual impression for the viewer is matched to the impression of the uncovered area 36.
  • the reflection layer 24 of the thin-film element 20 are in the embodiment of the FIGS. 2 and 3 recesses 30 are introduced, which can form a negative writing, for example.
  • the thin-film element 20 is transparent, so that in addition to the described effects, a striking contrast effect in the transmitted light results.
  • a security element such as the transfer element 16 of Fig.1 applied in the form of a patch or strip on the valuable item to be protected, so it is useful initially prepared in the form of label material or transfer material, triggered in the desired shape and then transferred to the object to be protected.

  • the transfer material 50 contains a carrier layer 52, in particular a plastic film, onto which the layer structure 54 of optically variable layer and semitransparent color layer is applied. It may be advantageous to provide a separating layer 56 between the layer structure 54 and the carrier layer 52.
  • an adhesive layer 58 for example a hot melt adhesive layer, is provided, with which the security element can be fastened on the object to be protected.
  • the transfer material 50 is placed on the article and the adhesive layer 58 activated, for example by heat. Subsequently, the carrier layer 52 is removed from the article, so that only the adhered layer structure 54 remains on the object to be protected.
  • the layer sequence of the layer structure 54 is reversed by adhering to the object to be protected with respect to the layer in the transfer material 50, so that the semitransparent ink layer on top of the article must be applied to the carrier layer 52 before the optically variable layer in the production of the transfer material.
