Definitions

  • the invention relates to a security paper with a watermark and a method for producing such a security paper.
  • Data carriers such as security, value or identity documents, but also other valuables are often equipped with security features for security, which allow verification of the authenticity of the data carrier and at the same time serve as protection against unauthorized reproduction.
  • security papers for banknotes, identity documents and the like are often provided with watermarks for protection, distinguishing between two-level watermarks with a strong light-dark effect and multi-level watermarks with smooth transitions between light and dark.
  • watermarks for example, metal wires or metal moldings, so-called electrotypes, are soldered or welded onto the paper screen structure in order to completely close the paper screen at these locations.
  • electrotypes are soldered or welded onto the paper screen structure in order to completely close the paper screen at these locations.
  • the paper accumulation is obstructed in these sections of the papermaking screen and thin spots form in the paper, which appear very bright in transmitted light.
  • a three-dimensional relief is embossed in the dewatering screen, so that the paper thickness of the finished paper varies according to the relief and, in transmitted light, reveals soft, gradual transitions between lighter and darker areas.
  • the document EP 1 607 235 A discloses a security paper having the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a security paper with watermarks, which combines a high degree of anti-counterfeiting security with a high visual attractiveness.
  • a security paper of the type mentioned in the beginning contains a watermark which forms a first motif, and the watermark is superimposed by a recessed area which forms a second motif.
  • the recess region is formed from at least one line-shaped cutout produced in the security paper by the action of laser radiation, so that the superposition of the watermark and recess region forms a combination motif of the first and second motif, which has a visual impression changed in transmitted light compared to reflected light.
  • Such a combination motif combines the advantageous properties of proven watermarks with those of modern, laser-cut security features.
  • a continuous cut line or a non-continuous dilution line in the paper is produced in the paper, depending on the local paper thickness.
  • the watermark and thinning lines are virtually indistinguishable from the surrounding vellum area of the security paper.
  • both the watermark and the dilution lines are clearly visible.
  • the relative brightness of watermark areas and dilution lines can be be adjusted by the depth of cut and by the paper thickness in the watermark in a wide range.
  • a line-shaped recess or recess line can therefore be either a cutting line passing completely through the paper or a non-continuous dilution line with a certain remaining residual thickness of the paper.
  • the mentioned overlay of recess area and watermark also includes the case that the recess area and the watermark overlap one another only in a partial area, so that the overall motif area is significantly increased by the combination of the two features.
  • the watermark comprises a thin spot with a paper thickness reduced in relation to the surroundings.
  • the watermark may also be provided that the watermark a thick spot with a paper thickness increased from the environment.
  • the watermark can be formed in two stages or in multiple stages. In this case, watermarks with a very large number of stages and thus a virtually continuous thickness variation in the description are referred to as multi-level watermark.
  • the first motif of the watermark advantageously represents a portrait, an architectural, technical or natural motif, or an alphanumeric string, in particular a value number.
  • Strings and, in particular, denominations which indicate, for example, the denomination of a banknote, are expediently produced with electrotypes as two-level watermarks.
  • the first and second motif represent information that is related or complementary to one another.
  • the information of the watermark motif (first motif) can repeat the information of the recapture area motif (second motif) or supplement it into overall information.
  • the second motif is therefore preferably designed so that a positional tolerance of the first motif of a few millimeters does not affect or destroy the desired combination effect.
  • the recessed area can be formed by a single line-shaped recess in the security paper, for example by a lettering or a simple graphic motif.
  • the recess region preferably comprises a plurality of line-shaped recesses and is formed in particular by a plurality of line-shaped recesses in the security paper.
  • the line-shaped recesses may comprise both continuous cut lines and dilution lines not passing through the security paper. If both cutting lines and dilution lines are present in a recess area, they can be present in separate areas next to one another, or the cutting and dilution lines can also adjoin one another and merge into one another. Due to the production by laser cutting in one operation, the cutting lines and dilution lines in this case adjoin one another without offset.
  • the recessed area is arranged completely within the watermark.
  • the recessed area can be designed in various ways.
  • the recess area may be formed by a plurality of straight, parallel line-shaped recesses, or by a plurality of straight, diverging line-shaped recesses.
  • the recess lines may also be curved, so that the recess area is formed by a plurality of curved, equidistant or by a plurality of curved, diverging line-shaped recesses.
  • the line-shaped recesses preferably have a width between 0.05 mm and 1 mm, in particular between 0.1 mm and 0.4 mm.
  • the security paper is provided with a laser-modifiable marking substance at least in a sub-area and the line-shaped recesses have in this sub-area a boundary area modified by the action of laser radiation.
  • the security paper is preferably provided in the subregion with a marking substance whose visible color can be changed by the action of the laser radiation, so that the line-shaped recesses in this subregion have a colored edge region.
  • the line-shaped recesses may comprise both continuous cutting lines and dilution lines not passing through the security paper. If both cut lines and dilution lines are present, then the cut lines can be used in particular in edge-modified, for example, colored dilution lines.
  • markers laser-modifiable effect pigments or pigment-free laser-modifiable marking substances can advantageously be used.
  • suitable markers as well as the manner of their inclusion or incorporation in the security paper can the document WO 2010 / 072329A1 are removed, the disclosure of which is included in the present application in this respect.
  • the security paper may in particular be a single- or multi-ply paper, preferably with a high percentage of cotton.
  • coated Papers or composite materials in which at least one layer is based on paper can be advantageously used according to the invention.
  • a recessed area produced by laser radiation can be combined with a watermark per individual layer.
  • the combination can also take place in different positions.
  • a first paper-based layer of a composite can include a watermark with a laser-generated recessed area, a watermark in conjunction with a laser-generated recessed area in a second paper-based layer, or a laser-generated recessed area in conjunction with a watermark in a second paper-based layer
  • a second paper-based sheet may then include a watermark having a recessed area created by laser radiation, a watermark in combination with a recessed area created by laser radiation in the first paper-based layer, or a recessed area created by laser radiation in conjunction with a watermark in the first paper-based layer. If the first layer already contains a combination feature, the second paper-based layer can of course also be feature-free.
  • the invention also includes a method for producing a security paper of the above type.
  • a security paper is provided with a first motif forming watermark and the watermark is superimposed by a recess portion which forms a second motif and of a plurality of linear, through Action of laser radiation generated recesses formed in the security paper becomes, so that the superposition of watermark and recessed area forms a combination motif of the first and second motif, which has a changed in transmitted light compared to reflected light visual impression.
  • the line-shaped recesses are advantageously produced by laser application with an infrared laser, preferably with a CO 2 laser.
  • the security paper is provided with a laser-modifiable marking material, at least in a subarea, so that the line-shaped recesses in this subarea are modified by the action of the laser radiation in its edge region.
  • the security paper is provided in the subregion with a marking substance, the visible color of which can be changed by the action of the laser radiation, so that the line-shaped recesses in this subarea receive a colored edge region due to the action of the laser radiation.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of a banknote 10 with a combination motif 12 according to the invention, which is formed from a superimposition of a watermark 14 and a rastered recessed area 16.
  • the watermark 14 represents as motif the value number "10", which is surrounded by the cloud-shaped or flower-shaped recessed area 16.
  • the visual impression of the combination motif 12 changes markedly when changing between reflected-light and transmitted-light viewing, as explained in more detail below.
  • the combination motives according to the invention combine the advantageous properties of the long-known and proven watermarks with modern laser-cut laser-cut holes produced by laser cutting.
  • the laser radiation generates either continuous cut lines or only non-continuous dilution lines in the paper.
  • the term "recess" is an umbrella term for through-openings or cuts and for non-continuous dilutions of the paper, so that a cut-off line can be a cut line or a dilution line.
  • the two security features watermark and laser cut interact and produce a complex combination motif, which offers the viewer a different visual impression in transmitted light than when viewed in reflected light.
  • the visual effect of the combination motif 12 goes far beyond the effect of an ordinary watermark.
  • the gridded recess area is also visually enhanced by the combination with the watermark motif.
  • the security paper according to the invention is therefore visually attractive and easy to test for laymen for authenticity.
  • the security paper is difficult to imitate for potential counterfeiters due to the need to reconcile two security features generated at different stages of papermaking.
