Definitions

  • the invention relates to a security element with color shift effect and visually unrecognizable security features.
  • WO 2004/014663 is a method for producing tamper-resistant identification features consisting of at least one electromagnetic wave reflecting layer, a spacer layer and a layer formed by metallic clusters known, wherein on a carrier substrate, a partial or full surface electromagnetic wave reflecting layer and then one or more partial and / or full-surface polymeric layers of defined thickness are applied, after which a layer of metallic clusters, which is produced by means of a vacuum-technical method or from solvent-based systems, is applied to the spacer layer.
  • the identification feature produced in this way shows a visually visible, viewing angle dependent color shift effect.
  • the object of the invention was to provide a security feature with a color shift effect, which additionally has visually unrecognizable security features.
  • the invention therefore relates to a forgery-proof identification feature consisting of a carrier substrate, a electromagnetic wave reflecting layer, a spacer layer and a layer formed by metallic clusters, characterized in that a further layer consisting of nematic or cholesteric liquid crystalline polymers is applied.
  • the carrier substrate used is, for example, flexible plastic films, for example made from P 1, PP, OPP, PE, PPS, PEEK, PEK, PEI, PAEK, LCP, PEN, PBT, PET, PA, PC, COC, POM, ABS, PVC, PTFE, fluoropolymers such as Teflon, PVB, etc. in question.
  • the carrier films preferably have a thickness of 5 to 700 .mu.m, preferably 5 to 200 .mu.m, particularly preferably 5 to 50 .mu.m.
  • metal foils for example Al, Cu, Sn, Ni, Fe or stainless steel foils having a thickness of 5-200 ⁇ m, preferably 10 to 80 ⁇ m, particularly preferably 20-50 ⁇ m, may also serve as the carrier substrate.
  • the films can also be surface-treated, coated or laminated, for example with plastics, or painted.
  • carrier substrates it is also possible to use cellulose-free or cellulose-containing paper, heat-activatable paper or composites with paper, for example composites with plastics having a basis weight of 20-500 g / m 2 , preferably 40-200 g / m 2 .
  • an electromagnetic wave reflecting layer is applied on the carrier substrate.
  • This layer may preferably consist of metals such as aluminum, gold, chromium, silver, copper, tin, platinum, nickel, iron, palladium and their alloys, for example nickel / chromium, copper / aluminum, gold / palladium and the like.
  • the electromagnetic wave reflecting layer may be applied all over or partially by known methods such as spraying, vapor deposition, sputtering, printing (gravure, flexographic, screen, digital printing), painting, roller coating and the like.
  • the subsequent polymeric layer or the polymeric layers may also be applied over the entire surface or partially.
  • the polymeric layer may consist of paint or coating systems based on nitrocellulose, epoxy, polyester, rosin, acrylate, alkyd, melamine, PVA, PVC, isocyanate or urethane systems.
  • the polymeric layer is preferably applied by gravure printing and may be applied over the whole area or preferably partially.
  • this layer can be applied, for example, in the form of letters, character symbols, guilloche lines, lettering in micro or macro text.
  • the metallic clusters may consist, for example, of aluminum, gold, palladium, iron, platinum, chromium, silver, copper, nickel and the like or their alloys, such as, for example, Au / Pd or Cr / Ni.
  • This cluster layer can be deposited by sputtering (for example ion beam or magnetron) or evaporation (electron beam) from a solution or by adsorption.
  • nematic or cholesteric liquid-crystalline polymers are applied.
  • suitable nematic liquid-crystalline polymers are derivatives of cinnamic acid esters or cyanobiphenyl derivatives.
  • the layer of liquid-crystalline polymers may be applied to the polymeric spacer layer or to the cluster layer.
  • another carrier substrate which is provided with a layer of nematic liquid-crystalline polymers can be laminated onto the described cluster structure.
  • the security feature may in particular have magnetic properties.
  • a magnetic layer can be present all over or partially on both sides or on one side of the carrier substrate and can be situated above and / or below the structure or in the structure which effects the color shift effect.
  • the magnetic layers may be arranged symmetrically or asymmetrically (with the carrier substrate or other layers as the plane of symmetry).
  • a dark colored magnetic layer may, for example, be located above or below or adjacent to the spacer layer and form a background for the subsequent layer of liquid crystalline cholesteric polymers, thereby causing different color effects in the different areas.
  • paramagnetic, diamagnetic and also ferromagnetic substances such as iron, nickel and cobalt or their compounds or salts (for example oxides or sulfides) can be used.
  • the elementary magnets can be oriented or oriented (permanently aligned by an external magnetic field).
  • the carrier substrate can also already have one or more functional and / or decorative layers or can subsequently be provided therewith, wherein these layers can be integrated into the security feature by laminating a further carrier substrate which carries these layers or by direct application to the described construction.
  • color or lacquer layers a wide variety of compositions can be used in each case.
  • the composition of the individual Layers may in particular vary according to their purpose, depending on whether the individual layers serve exclusively decorative purposes or should be a functional layer or whether the layer should be both a decorative and a functional layer.
  • the layers may be pigmented or unpigmented.
  • pigments it is possible to use all known pigments, for example titanium dioxide, zinc sulfide, kaolin, ATO, FTO, ITO, aluminum, chromium oxides and silicon oxides, as well as colored pigments.
  • solvent-based coating systems and systems without solvents can be used.
  • Suitable binders are various known natural or synthetic binders.
  • the functional layers may for example have certain electrical, magnetic, special chemical, physical and also optical properties.
  • Electrode properties such as conductivity, for example, graphite, carbon black, conductive organic or inorganic polymers.
  • Metal pigments for example, copper, aluminum, silver, gold, iron, chromium lead and the like
  • metal alloys such as copper-zinc or copper-aluminum or their sulfides or oxides, or amorphous or crystalline ceramic pigments such as ITO and the like may be added.
  • doped or non-doped semiconductors such as, for example, silicon, germanium or ionic conductors, such as amorphous or crystalline metal oxides or metal sulfides, as an additive.
  • polar or partially polar compounds such as surfactants or nonpolar compounds such as silicone additives or hygroscopic or non-hygroscopic salts can be used or added to adjust the electrical properties of the layer.
  • the optical properties of the layer can be visualized by visible dyes or pigments, luminescent dyes or pigments which fluoresce or phosphoresce in the visible, in the UV region or in the IR region, effect pigments, such as liquid crystals, pearlescent, bronzes and / or heat-sensitive Influence colors or pigments. These can be used in all possible combinations.
  • phosphorescent pigments can also be used alone or in combination with other dyes and / or pigments.
  • Fig. 1 to 5 Inventive structures are shown.
  • 1 is the carrier substrate
  • 2 is the electromagnetic wave reflecting layer
  • 3 is the spacer layer
  • 4 is the cluster layer
  • 5 is a layer of cholesteric liquid-crystalline polymers
  • 5a is a layer of nematic liquid-crystalline polymers
  • 6 is a protective lacquer layer
  • 7 is a magnetic layer, a, b and c the different color effects.
  • the security features according to the invention if appropriate after appropriate assembly (for example into threads, strips, patches or other formats), therefore, can be used as security elements on data carriers, in particular value documents such as identity cards, cards, banknotes or labels, seals and the like, but also in packaging materials for sensitive goods. such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, data carriers, electronic components and the like.
