Definitions
- the present invention relates to a value or security product, for example a value or security document or a security element, wherein the value or security product has a security feature, and a method for producing the security feature on or in the value or security product.
- a value or security document can be, for example, a personal document, in particular an identity card, or a means of payment, in particular a banknote.
- Such documents are typically produced in standardized formats, for example in the ID 1, ID 2 or ID 3 format according to ISO 7810.
- the documents may in principle consist of an organic polymer or a ceramic material, paper, cardboard, glass or metal or the - included. Cards and card-shaped components of book-type documents may preferably be made of laminated polymer films.
- security features used in the value or security products can only serve to prove the authenticity of the products, regardless of their nature or by their user.
- security features are, for example, guilloches, watermarks, embossing prints, tipping pictures, holograms, the special paper of banknotes and the like.
- Personalizing, for example personalizing, security features also contain in coded form or in plain text information about the type of document, about its owner and / or about an object to which the document is assigned.
- Such information may include a face image / portrait (for example in the form of a photograph) of the owner, his or her personal data such as name, date of birth, place of birth, signature, a personal identifier such as a membership number, or biometric data of the holder, such as fingerprints. Iris and retina detection.
- Another security feature that individualizes the document can be, for example, a serial number of the document or the chassis number of a motor vehicle to which the document is assigned.
- DE 10 2009 007 779 B3 discloses a security feature of a value or security document which can be visually perceived without technical aids and which has a first material layer, which can be, for example, a plastic film, and a first lacquer layer.
- the first lacquer layer is applied to the first material layer at least in some areas.
- the refractive indices of the first material layer and the first resist layer differ by at least 0.1.
- a second lacquer layer may be applied over the first lacquer layer.
- the first material layer, the first and the second lacquer layer may be transparent.
- the first lacquer layer can be produced, for example, by means of ink jet printing.
- This lacquer layer may further comprise at least one luminescent excitable substance.
- This security feature is used in particular to secure personalization data. For putting in the value or security document may have other security features, such as a luminescent.
- DE 10 2008 012 423 A1 discloses a polymer layer composite comprising a plurality of substrate layers with a colored security feature.
- the security feature consists in that information is split up into at least two print separations and printed on at least two different substrate layer surfaces, so that the print separations in the polymer layer composite lie one above the other in register and together reproduce the individualizing information, for example, from a viewing angle.
- the substrate layer surfaces are preferably printed with the various print separations by means of a digital printing method, in particular by means of an ink jet printing method.
- luminescent agents can be introduced in such a way that a white-light emission occurs in the case of UV excitation.
- the substrate layer surface may be arranged below at least one of the printing extracts in the produced document body.
- the UV radiation stimulates white fluorescence. This light is filtered by pixels of the printed separations arranged above, so that the information can be seen in color under a viewing angle.
- the term 'value or security product' which may in particular be a value or security document or a security element, it may include, for example, a passport, identity card, driver's license or another ID.
- a product according to the invention may also be a security element, for example a sticker, label or the like, which has the security feature according to the invention and which can be permanently connected to a precursor of a value and / or security document in order to form the value and / or security document ,
- the product may be, for example, a smart card.
- the value or security document may be in ID 1, ID 2, ID 3 format, or any other format such as a booklet form, such as a passport-like item.
- a value or security product is generally a laminate of several document layers, which are connected in register under the action of heat and under increased pressure. These products should meet the standardized requirements, for example ISO 10373, ISO / IEC 7810, ISO 14443.
- the product layers consist, for example, of a carrier material which is suitable for lamination.
- the valuable or security product may be formed from a polymer selected from a group comprising polycarbonate (PC), in particular bisphenol A polycarbonate, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), derivatives thereof, such as glycol modified PET (PETG), Polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyvinyl butyral (PVB), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyimide (PI), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polystyrene (PS), polyvinyl phenol (PVP), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), in particular thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS) and derivatives thereof, paper, cardboard, glass, metal or ceramics.
- PC polycarbonate
- PET polyethylene terephthalate
- PEN glycol modified PET
- PEN Polyethylene naphthalate
- PVC polyvinyl chlor
- the product can be made of several of these materials. It preferably consists of PC or PC / TPU / PC.
- the polymers may be either filled or unfilled. In the latter case they are preferably transparent or translucent. If the polymers are filled, they are opaque.
- the above information relates both to films to be joined together and to liquid formulations applied to a precursor, such as a protective or topcoat.
- the product is preferably prepared from 3 to 12 films, preferably 4 to 10 films.
- the films may also carry print layers. A laminate formed in this way can finally be coated on one or both sides with the protective or topcoat or with a film.
- the film may be a volume hologram, a film with a surface hologram (for example a kinegraphic element) or a scratch-resistant film.
- the protective or topcoat may be the transparent lacquer layer according to the present invention.
- Overlay layers formed in this way protect a security feature arranged underneath and / or give the document the required abrasion resistance.
- the security feature may be formed on one of the inner layers.
- security feature is mentioned in the description and in the claims of the present application, this is to be understood as a feature which preferably causes an optical impression which can be determined by means of optical recognition methods and which is produced on account of luminescence by an optically perceptible design. This design preferably includes an optically perceptible individualizing information.
- the security feature may be configured to be directly perceived by a user, or it may be a machine-readable feature.
- the security feature is detected by means of a device, for example, electromagnetic radiation, spatially resolved receiving device and perceived by a viewer or evaluated by means of a device provided for this purpose.
- the security feature can be manufactured as part of a value or security document or as a separate product (security element). The latter can be glued to the document, for example.
- the security feature will generally only occupy part of the surface of the document.
- the term "luminescence” is called, it is to be understood as fluorescence, phosphorescence and that both with Stokes and anti-Stokes shift. According to the present invention, this is to be understood in particular as photoluminescence.
- the term "pattern" is to be understood as meaning a somewhat distributed distribution of surface elements perceptible to the human eye on one or more surfaces, resulting in a self-contained representation, for example one Image, picture element, character, in particular an alphanumeric character, a symbol, coat of arms, a line or another simple geometric shape, a formula or the like.
- a pattern is to be understood as meaning a uniform, non-structured surface which is luminescent in only one color. This area may contain information, for example, by its color.
- pattern element As far as the term "pattern element” is used in the description and in the claims of the present application, this is to be understood as meaning a component / element of a pattern (pixel), insofar as it is composed of discrete pattern elements.
- a pattern element in such a case serves as the smallest structural element for the formation of the pattern, with all the pattern elements forming the pattern.
- the patterning material may be either transparent, translucent or opaque. Furthermore, it may have a certain brightness (absorption, remission), ie it may, for example, have blackening, gray tinting or whitening, and / or it may have a (spectral) coloring and, in turn, a certain brightness.
- the pattern elements may have a circular (point-shaped), rectangular, square, hexagonal or even other shape.
- Pattern elements can be the smallest elements of a perceptible representation to which one of the color values or color tones can be assigned in each case in a colorful color space (for example in the additive RGB color space).
- a colorful color space for example in the additive RGB color space.
- all subsequent statements on elements of the present invention relate both to individual copies of these elements as well as to a plurality of such elements.
- these elements are therefore usually referred to below as singular, for example as a 'color layer', although a majority of these elements may also be provided, for example 'at least one color layer'.
- the object underlying the present invention is achieved by the inventive value or security product with a security feature and by the inventive method for producing the security feature on or in the value or security product.
- the value or security product according to the invention has a substrate having surfaces.
- the security feature of the valuable or security product is formed by in each case at least one luminescent color layer applied to at least one of the surfaces of the substrate and at least one transparent lacquer layer at least partially covering the at least one luminescent color layer (the transparency of the lacquer layer according to the present invention relates to the visible spectral range).
- the at least one transparent lacquer layer lies on the side of the at least one luminescent ink layer in or on the product facing the viewer.
- the at least one transparent lacquer layer is capable of absorbing electromagnetic radiation which is suitable for exciting the at least one luminescent color layer for luminescence.
- the at least one transparent lacquer layer covers the at least one luminescent color layer in the form of a pattern.
- the pattern may be formed by one type of resist or two or more types of resist.
- a single transparent resist layer capable of absorbing excitation radiation only partially covers the luminescent ink layer
- all transparent resist layers of several different types capable of absorbing excitation radiation cover the luminescent ink layer together either only partially or completely.
- the at least one transparent lacquer layer can be arranged in direct contact with the at least one luminescent color layer, ie it can rest on it, or it can be spaced from the latter.
- the two types of layers can be arranged on different surfaces of one or more films, from which the value or security product is formed.
- the at least one transparent lacquer layer is capable of absorbing electromagnetic radiation which is suitable for exciting the at least one luminescent color layer for luminescence and is formed on or above the at least one luminescent color layer to form a pattern.
- the at least one luminescent color layer may in particular be unstructured, i. over the entire surface, be formed.
- the color layer is not individualizing, in particular not personalizing.
- the transparent lacquer layer is capable of absorbing the excitation radiation, which serves to excite the color layer for luminescence. Thereby, the excitation of the color layer for luminescence is prevented in the areas in which the lacquer layer is, while the color layer is excited in the remaining areas for luminescence.
- the ensemble of color layer and lacquer layer can therefore reproduce the motif with suitable excitation for luminescence.
- An individualization of the value or security product in the form of a pattern is accordingly achieved according to the invention by structuring of the easily structurable lacquer layer being produced instead of the pattern of the luminescent color layer that can not readily be obtained.
- a system is found, with the individualization, in particular personalization, of a value or security product is made possible by means of luminescent inks in a simple manner.
- a conventional luminescent printing ink can be applied, in particular printed, before or after the lamination to form the luminescent ink layer on an otherwise finished value or security product or on a film layer as a solid surface.
- a conventional coating method, in particular printing method can be used.
- the color layer is individualized with a transparent varnish.
- an inkjet ink must fulfill special properties: Firstly, the viscosity of the ink and the size of the ink particles contained therein must meet the requirements for good and reliable printability. On the other hand, the particles in the ink should not sediment, or individual ink constituents should not precipitate, as this would clog the nozzle orifices of the nozzle head.
- the problem is solved that on the one hand for increasing the security of value or security products against counterfeiting, falsification and / or copy new, unconventional materials are used, these on the other hand for individualization by means of digital printing methods very difficult to one can be adjusted by inkjet printable and long-term stable ink. Therefore, no special printing ink needs to be produced for the realization of this security feature.
- an individualizing security feature based on a luminescent ink layer can be produced. Since valuable or security documents usually receive a protective coating in a final process step in order to protect the documents against scratches or other mechanical damage, this method step can also be used for the production of the transparent lacquer layer. Thus, no further process step for the production of the security feature according to the invention is required.
- the transparent lacquer layer therefore has the scratch resistance and abrasion resistance required for protection against mechanical damage, it is possible to dispense with a further lacquering for this purpose.
- the protective coating is protected by the patterned application on the value or security product against forgery or falsification, because a manipulation, such as a grinding of the paint and a renewed individualization and new overprinting with a conventional paint, under the excitation conditions for luminescence immediately would be recognizable.
- the luminescent color layer is selected such that UV radiation can be used for its excitation for luminescence as electromagnetic radiation.
- the luminescent color layer can also be selected in such a way that, for its excitation for luminescence, electromag- netic radiation in the visible spectral range or IR radiation is used.
- the transparent lacquer layer would have to be able to absorb radiation in the visible spectral range and would therefore be colored or at least tinted with gray, so that the individualizing feature would already be recognizable to the naked eye.
- the selection of a luminescent ink layer whose luminescence is excited by electromagnetic radiation which is not in the visible spectral range is advantageous over ink layers with lying in the visible spectral range excitation radiation.
- the security feature is not readily recognizable as such.
- the luminescent ink layer is furthermore excitable for luminescence by means of IR radiation, the transparent coating layer would not necessarily be colored or at least gray, so that the security feature according to the invention as such can not be recognized by the naked eye.
- special luminescent substances are required (anti-Stokes luminescent substances) in order to enable luminescence in the visible spectral range in this type of excitation.
- the luminescent ink layer contains at least one luminescent substance, wherein a luminescent substance should also be understood to mean a luminescent pigment.
- the luminescent color layer may have a specific absorption or remission in the visible spectral region, i. be colored, or it may be colorless. In particular, it is preferred if the luminescent ink layer is colorless. It is further preferred that the luminescent color layer luminesce in the visible spectral region, i. in a spectral range from about 400 nm to about 750 nm. As a result, the luminescence is visible to the naked eye.
- the luminescent color layer would be machine-readable and, for this purpose, detectable and readable by means of a device arranged for this purpose. If the spectral distribution of luminescence in the visible spectral range is not uniform, the emitted light is colored, for example slightly yellowish, if higher energy (shorter wavelength) spectral components occur to a lesser extent, or greenish, if lower energy (longer wavelength) and higher energy spectral components occur to a lesser extent.
- the luminescent ink layer may contain a single luminescent substance, namely an organic or an inorganic substance, or a mixture of a plurality of luminescent substances, namely organic and / or inorganic substances.
- Typical luminescent substances are, for example, in
- the pigments formed herewith can additionally be coated with organic substances in order to increase the quantum yield of the luminescence.
- quantum dots can also be used, ie semiconductor particles whose size is in the nm range, for example based on CdS.
- organic luminescent substances can also be used, such as rhodamine 6G or fluorescein.
- the luminescent ink layer may be formed uniformly luminescent and either pure white, which include slightly colored layers are to be understood, or luminescent in a uniform color. It can also be multicolored luminescent.
- the luminescent color layer may be formed in a luminescent iris.
- any other luminescent color distributions may be present, which are either screened or not screened, and / or have a plurality of luminescent colors in different shades and / or color shades in any area distribution.
- the luminescent ink layer may further be present either over the entire surface or in a pattern, i.
- the luminescent color layer regions can be arranged arbitrarily to one another, namely either regularly or irregularly, and wherein the luminescent regions of the color layer can in turn luminesce uniformly in color or luminesce in multiple colors.
- the luminescent ink layer can be applied to the substrate by means of luminescent inks or inks.
- the ink or ink may contain further customary constituents, for example solvents, binders, resins, varnishes and auxiliaries.
- the luminescent ink layer is preferably applied to the substrate surface by a printing process.
- a printing process may be a conventional printing process that has been found to be well suited for the printing of luminescent inks, for example, an offset, flexographic or screen gravure printing process.
- the transparent lacquer layer is substantially colorless. This means that the transparent lacquer layer has little or no light absorption in the visible spectral range.
- the transparent lacquer layer may optionally have only a low absorption, which causes a slight subjective color impression with a slight color cast. Alternatively, the transparent lacquer layer may also be colored.
- the transparent lacquer layer is capable of absorbing the electromagnetic radiation which is suitable for exciting the luminescent color layer for luminescence.
- the transparent lacquer layer has special additives which absorb in this spectral range, or the color layer is formed from substances which absorb in this spectral range.

- the transparent lacquer layer absorbs in the UV spectral range.
- the transparent resist layer may be formed by a polymer that absorbs in the excitation spectral region.
- the transparent lacquer layer can be formed by forming the lacquer layer by means of a transparent lacquer on a substrate surface.
- the lacquer may be, for example, a polyacrylate lacquer.
- the lacquer contains, for example, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, benzophenone, benzotriazole and / or the derivatives of these compounds, and / or the lacquer is formed from a polymer which Contains UV-absorbing groups, for example aromatic radicals.
- the transparent lacquer layer is applied in a pattern on or over the luminescent ink layer.
- individual regions of the luminescent color layer are shaded by the transparent lacquer layer, so that the excitation radiation can not reach the luminescent color layer and therefore can not luminesce it.
- the luminescent ink layer therefore luminesces only in those areas in which the transparent lacquer layer is not located.
- the color layer luminesces in a pattern which is complementary to the pattern of the transparent lacquer layer.
- the pattern in which the transparent lacquer layer is produced may have any shape.
- it may be in the form of alphanumeric or other characters, a logo, an image, in particular a face image of a person, a symbol, a coat of arms or a formula.
- the two-dimensional distribution of the regions of the pattern in which the transparent lacquer layer is located and of the complementary regions in which there is no transparent lacquer layer, ie the design of the pattern of the transparent lacquer layer, is arbitrary.
- lacquer layer area and one open area in which there is no lacquer layer or, alternatively, a (contiguous) open area and several lacquer layer areas or, alternatively, several free areas and several lacquer layer areas or, alternatively, thereto , several free areas in a (contiguous) paint layer area on each one of the product surfaces are located.
- the free areas and the lacquer layer areas may be in a regular arrangement with respect to each other or in an irregular (stochastic or non-stochastic) arrangement.
- the lacquer layer regions can be present, for example, in a hexagonal arrangement, with the free regions separating the lacquer layer regions from one another.
- the lacquer layer areas can be formed, for example, by simple geometric shapes, for example by circular, square, rectangular, hexagonal areas, elongated structures, such as lines, ellipses, and the like. Lacquer layer areas in several of these forms can occur together. If there are several paint layer areas, they are isolated from each other, ie they do not touch. The aforementioned simple forms of the lacquer layer areas can also touch one another.
- the lacquer layer areas can be screened or un-screened.
- the lacquer layer areas together form a two-dimensional structure which, for example, codes information and preferably forms an individualizing pattern.
- the at least one lacquer layer is produced in the form of an individualizing, for example personalizing, marking.
- the individualizing marking may be for the owner of the security and / or security document by lettering with owner-specific data, for example the name, address, birthdays or birthplace lettering, or an image representation, for example a face image of the document holder or the reproduction his signature, be formed for an object, such as a motor vehicle, its VIN and for the document itself, for example in the form of a serial number.
- the transparent varnish is applied to the substrate surface by a printing process.
- the printing process is a digital printing process, even more preferably a non-impact printing process, and most preferably an ink jet printing process.
- the pattern for a person who is assigned to the value or security product can be made individualizing, without having to be generated by an ink jet printing process.
- the transparent lacquer can be readily processed by means of an ink-jet printing process, the individualization of the luminescent ink layer is easily possible in this way.
- a value or security product marked with it can be assigned individually, for example, to a person or an object.
- the luminescent color layer and the transparent lacquer layer can be directly produced on each other, so that they are in contact with each other. Or these two layers may be spaced apart. In the latter case, the two types of layers are formed on different surfaces of substrates, which together form a value or security product or a component of a valuable or security product.
- the luminescent color layer and the transparent lacquer layer preferably extend over the same area of the value or security product and are thus arranged in registration or superimposed on one another. But it is also possible that the luminescent ink layer protrudes beyond the transparent lacquer layer or vice versa. In the former case, the color layer luminesces upon irradiation with the excitation radiation in the projecting region. In the latter case, the luminescent motif extends over a smaller area than the transparent lacquer layer. In principle, it is possible that both the luminescent color layer and the transparent lacquer layer do not occupy the entire product surface but only a partial area thereof.
- the luminescent ink layer occupies only a partial area of the product surface, but the transparent lacquer layer extends over the entire product surface (of course, except the areas in which the lacquer layer for the purpose of luminescence is not present), since the transparent Lacquer layer can also fulfill the purpose of protecting the entire product surface against scratches and other mechanical damage.
- the individualization of the product with this safety feature can be carried out, for example, in one of the last production steps together with the coating of the product. An additional process step for protection against mechanical damage is thus unnecessary. It is only a special paint for the coating to select, which has the required optical properties.
- the lacquer layer can be used as a card sealing:
- the at least one transparent lacquer layer is formed by at least one first lacquer layer which covers the at least one luminescent color layer in at least one first lacquer layer region, and in that the at least a luminescent color layer in at least one second resist layer area not covered by the at least one first resist layer and at least substantially complementary to the at least one resist region is covered by at least one second transparent resist layer which is not capable of absorbing electromagnetic radiation which would be suitable for exciting the at least one luminescent color layer for luminescence.

- the distribution of the first and second lacquer layer areas corresponds to the desired pattern for the luminescent zenz of the color layer.
- a surface-covering coating of the product surface can be achieved, so that the paint layers together can offer protection of the value or security product against mechanical damage.

- an identity card 100 shown in FIGS. 1, 6 each have a conventional format for the card, for example the format ID 1 according to ISO / IEC 7810.
- the card may be produced as a laminate of several polymer layers made of polycarbonate and / or polyethylene terephthalate can exist. Some of these layers may be colored opaque with pigments, for example, to hide the card from an internal electronic device. In the following it will be assumed for the sake of simplicity that the card is formed from a polymer layer as substrate.

- This lacquer layer is arranged on the second (upper) polymer layer in the same area and exactly in register above the fluorescent color layer which is located on the first (lower) polymer layer.
- the two polymer layers are combined to form a stack so that the fluorescent color layer and the transparent lacquer layer lie over one another in register. Then the polymer layers, if appropriate together with further polymer layers, are joined together, for example by means of a lamination process. Above the second (upper) polymer layer may be another transparent polymer layer. Alternatively, initially only the fluorescent color layer can be applied to the surface 102 of the first (lower) polymer layer and the first and the second polymer layer and optionally further polymer layers can then be bonded together to form a polymer layer composite. The transparent lacquer layer 400 is then finally printed on the outside of the polymer layer composite.
- the underlying fluorescent color layer 300 fluoresces only in the second lacquer layer regions 410, in which the color layer is not covered by the lacquer layer pattern, since only There, the UV radiation can stimulate the color layer to fluorescence.
- the UV radiation in the first lacquer layer regions 440 is absorbed by the lacquer layer, so that no UV radiation can penetrate the color layer there. As a result, the color layer does not fluoresce in these areas. Thus, a fluorescence image corresponding to the pattern of the resist layer is obtained.
- the lacquer layer can be printed on the second (upper) polymer layer 106 or the polymer layer composite by means of a digital printing process, for example by means of an inkjet printing process, personalization of the card 100 is possible.

- the two layers 300, 400, 420 can be printed on the outside thereof after the production of the card 100 ,
- the lacquer layer 400, 420 absorbs incident UV radiation in the first lacquer layer regions 440, so that the underlying color layer 300 does not fluoresce.

- the view of the card 100 according to this embodiment can be seen in illumination with white light (VIS) or UV radiation (UV) Fig. 1.
- VIS white light
- UV UV radiation
- the fluorescent color layer 300 is applied to the surface 102 of a first (lower) polymer layer 105 and two different transparent lacquer layers 400, namely first lacquer layers 420 and second lacquer layers 430, onto the surface 101 of a second (upper) polymer layer 106 printed.

- this third embodiment corresponds to the first embodiment shown in FIG.
- the above explanations regarding FIG. 2 also apply to this embodiment.
- the two resist layers 420, 430 are each patterned, ie, with the formation of a pattern, printed on the upper side 101 of the first (upper) polymer layer 106, so that the fill both layers of paint occupied by the paint layers surface field on this polymer layer over the entire surface.
- the first coating layers 420 absorb UV radiation, for example UVA radiation.
- the second lacquer layers 430 are completely transparent to both visible radiation and UV radiation.
- this arrangement provides the same appearance of the security feature 200 as for the first embodiment of FIG. 2, i. UV radiation penetrates into the second lacquer layer regions 410 formed by the second lacquer layers 430 up to the color layer 300 and excites them to fluoresce.
- the first lacquer layers 420 absorb the UV radiation in the first lacquer layer regions 440 formed by them, so that the fluorescent color layer in these regions is not excited to fluoresce.
- the first resist layers 420 and the second resist layers 430 absorb UV radiation, wherein the first resist layers absorb UVA radiation, for example, and the second resist layers absorb UVB radiation, while these layers do not absorb the other radiation.
- UV radiation When UV radiation is irradiated, it can pass through the second lacquer layers 430 in the second lacquer layer regions 410 and thus excite the underlying ink layer 300 to fluoresce (shown in FIG. 4).
- the UV B radiation in the first lacquer layer regions 440 can pass through the first lacquer layers 420 and thus excite the underlying color layer 300 to fluoresce, while the UV B radiation from the second resist layers 430 is absorbed in the second resist layer areas 410, so that the underlying color layer 300 is not excited to fluorescence there (not shown).
- This embodiment with a full-surface lacquer layer 400 has the advantage that the first and second lacquer layers 420, 430 can also serve as a protective or topcoat for sealing the card 100.
- the lacquer layers are arranged on the outside of the card. After the polymer layer composite has been formed, for example, they can finally be printed on the outside in the desired structuring by means of inkjet printing.
- these two layers of lacquer fulfill two purposes: Firstly, On the other hand, they serve to personalize the underlying full-surface fluorescent layer 300. Since inkjet printing can be created individually from card to card, the card can be personalized after its completion with individual formation of the resist structures become. For this purpose, the card may already have the full-surface fluorescent color layer, optionally in an inner plane, as shown in this embodiment.
- the fluorescent color layer 300 on the surface 101 of a polymer layer 105 and directly on the color layer are two different transparent lacquer layers 400, namely first lacquer layers 420 in first lacquer layer regions 440 and second lacquer layers 430 in second lacquer layer regions 410, printed.
- this fourth embodiment corresponds to the third embodiment shown in FIG.
- the above explanations regarding FIG. 4 also apply to this embodiment, whereby the two above-explained sub cases are also possible in this case.
- FIG. 7 The mechanism explained for the third embodiment according to FIG. 4 of switching between two representations of the same pattern by using two different lacquer layers 400 with different UV absorption characteristics is shown in FIG. 7:
- Fig. 7a the case is shown in which the structure of Fig. 5 (fourth embodiment) is illuminated with UV A radiation.
- the first resist layers 420 forming the first resist layer regions 440 absorb the irradiated UV A radiation, so that fluorescence from the ink layer 300 is emitted only from the second resist layer regions 410. This results in an appearance of the security feature 200, for example, according to FIG. 6a.
- Fig. 7b the case is shown in which the structure of Fig. 5 (fourth embodiment) is illuminated with UV B radiation.
- the second resist layers 430 forming the second resist layer regions 410 absorb the irradiated UV B radiation, so that fluorescence from the ink layer 300 is emitted only in the first resist regions 440.
- an arrangement as shown in FIG. 8 can be used for the preparation of the lacquer layers 400.
- an ink jet printing device 500 can be used which, in addition to the print heads for printing the color components CMYK, has at least two print heads L1, L2 for printing the two lacquers to produce the first transparent lacquer layers 420 and the second transparent lacquer layers 430 has.
- These two types of lacquer coatings are preferably printed on the exterior after the card 100 has been produced in one operation. This completes the personalization of the card.
