Definitions
- the invention relates to a security element for value documents and data carriers with at least two different color shift effects, wherein when the viewing angle is changed, not only the color shift effect is recognizable but also an additional optical effect is created, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- a security element for protecting valuables with an optically variable layer is known, which also conveys different color impressions at different viewing angles.
- a semi-transparent color layer is arranged in a limited overlap area above the optically variable layer, the color impression of which is adapted to the color impression of the optically variable layer under predetermined viewing conditions.
- EP 2 420 391 A a security element with an optically variable layer that has different color impressions at different viewing angles is known, wherein a colored metallic layer is arranged in a defined area above or next to the optically variable layer, wherein the color impression of this layer is the color impression of the optically variable layer is adapted under a defined viewing angle.
- the object of the invention was to provide a security element which has at least two different colour shift effect areas and increased security against counterfeiting.
- the invention therefore relates to a security element for banknotes, value documents and data carriers comprising a carrier substrate and a coating which has colour shift effects of the type mentioned at the outset, characterized by the features of the characterising part of claim 1.
- Carrier films preferably flexible plastic films, for example made of PI, PP, MOPP, PE, PPS, PEEK, PEK, PEI, PSU, PAEK, LCP, PEN, PBT, PET, PA, PC, COC, POM, ABS, PVC, PTFE, ETFE (ethylenetetrafluoroethylene), PFA (tetrafluoroethylene-perfluoropropylvinylether-fluorocopolymer), MFA (tetrafluoromethylene-perfluoropropylvinylether-fluorocopolymer), PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), PVF (polyvinyl fluoride), PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride), and EFEP (ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene-fluoroterpolymer) are suitable.
- the carrier films preferably have a thickness of 5 - 700 ⁇ m, preferably 5 - 200 ⁇ m,
- a coating is applied to the carrier substrate, which consists of different color shift effect structures arranged next to one another in certain areas. According to the invention, these different areas are produced by printing color shift effect printing inks. Pigments that are suitable for the production of such printing inks are, for example, in WO00/31571 A , US$5,278,590 , US$5,135,812 disclosed.
- the color shift effect can also be realized according to the invention by a layer structure containing an electromagnetic wave-reflecting layer, a polymeric or dielectric spacer layer and an absorption layer, for example a metallic layer or a layer formed from metallic clusters.
- a layer that reflects electromagnetic waves is applied to the carrier substrate.
- This layer can preferably consist of metals, such as aluminum, gold, chromium, silver, copper, tin, platinum, nickel or tantalum, of semiconductors, such as silicon, and their alloys, for example nickel/chromium, copper/aluminum and the like, or of a printing ink with metal pigments.
- the thickness of the layer that reflects electromagnetic waves is preferably about 10 - 50 nm, although higher or lower layer thicknesses are also possible.
- the polymer or dielectric spacer layer that follows this can also be applied over the entire surface or preferably partially. However, several polymer or dielectric spacer layers can also be applied over the entire surface or partially.
- polymeric spacer layer(s) consist, for example, of conventional or radiation-curing, in particular U-curing, color or varnish systems based on nitrocellulose, epoxy, polyester, rosin, acrylate, alkyd, melamine, PVA, PVC, isocyanate, urethane or PS copolymer systems.
- Layers made of S1O2, ZnS, MgF2, T'IO2 or Ta20s can be used as dielectric spacer layer(s).
- the thickness of the spacer layer can be varied over a wide range, for example in a range from 10 nm to 3 ⁇ m in order to produce different coordinated color shift effects.
- a full-surface or partial absorption layer made of metallic clusters is then applied to this spacer layer.
- the metallic clusters can consist of, for example, aluminum, gold, palladium, platinum, chromium, silver, copper, nickel, tantalum, tin and the like or their alloys, such as Au/Pd, Cu/Ni or Cr/Ni.
- a full-surface or partial metallic layer can be applied as an absorption layer, whereby this layer can consist, for example, of metals such as aluminum, gold, chromium, silver, copper, tin, platinum, nickel or tantalum, or their alloys, for example nickel/chromium, copper/aluminium and the like, or a printing ink with metal pigments.

- the areas with different color shift effects are applied next to each other.
- the areas can be arranged directly adjacent to each other, overlapping or in register with an unprinted area between the individual areas, whereby the unprinted area preferably takes up less than 50% of the width of a printed area.
- the shape of the areas can vary; the areas can be designed as geometric shapes, in the form of waves, arrows, bars, stripes, characters, letters, numbers, symbols and the like.
- the length of the areas is such that all areas can be viewed from the same viewing angle.
- Lengths of about 0.5 to 25 mm have proven to be suitable, for example for areas in the shape of bars.
- the areas can be printed in the form of a gradient in a defined area so as to overlap, i.e. the transition between the areas is soft and flowing and not along a sharp border.

- the target color in this case a blue color
- the security element is now tilted so that the viewing angle is around 60°, the blue color disappears from the first area and the target color appears in the second area. If the security element is tilted by a further 30°, i.e. so that the viewing angle is 30°, the blue color disappears from the second area and appears in the third area.
- the safety element creates the impression of a movement effect of the target color (in this case blue) when tilted.
- the differences between the individual colors are softened by the color transitions and the movement of the target color tone is not abrupt but fluid.
- the security element has two repeating areas , 2 with different color shift effects on a transparent carrier film.
- Figure 2a is an embodiment analogous Fig.2 shown, but a further absorption layer 11 is provided below the color shift effect layers 1, 2, 3 to enhance the color shift effect.
- the absorption layer can be a layer made of an absorbent printing ink, preferably a dark, in particular black, printing ink or else a metallic layer or a layer made of a metal compound, for example of non-stoichiometric aluminum oxide or stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric copper oxide, which was applied, for example, by vapor deposition or sputtering.
- Fig.3 The embodiment is shown, which as in Fig.1 shown, has three different color shift effects 1 , 2, 3, which in this case were applied in an overlapping manner in some areas.
- the security element shows color gradient zones or a color gradient with overlapping areas 13.
- FIG. 5 A further preferred embodiment is shown.
- the areas 1, 2, 3 which have the different color shift effects are not implemented over the entire width of the security element; in the remaining area of the security element, a print layer 4, 5, 6 is applied, the color of which corresponds to the respective color shift effect area when viewed at an angle of 90°.
- the target color can be seen moving from one area to another in the area of the different color shift effects. No color change occurs in the area of the printing color. The color of the printing area remains unchanged and is then different to the color tone of the color shift effect area.
- the color of the color shift effect can initially correspond to the color impression of the printing color under any other viewing angle, with the effect described above then occurring analogously when the viewing angle is changed.
- Fig.6 an embodiment is shown in which recesses 12 in the form of numbers or symbols are provided in the color shift effect layer areas 1, 2.
- These recesses can be made by recesses in the color shift effect printing layer or, if the color shift effect layer is realized by a multilayer structure consisting of an electromagnetic wave reflecting layer, a spacer layer 8 and an absorption layer 9 made of a metallic layer or a layer formed from metallic clusters, by recesses in the electromagnetic wave reflecting layer 7 and/or the absorption layer 9 ⁇
- the recesses can be in the form of geometric shapes, characters, letters, numbers, lines or symbols and can be provided in one or more of the areas with different color shift effects. No recess is provided in the color shift effect layer area 3.

- This lacquer layer can optionally be combined with a reflection layer (not shown), for example a metallic reflective layer, which is not shown in Fig. 10.
- the security element can also be designed as a transfer material, wherein the security element is then fixed to the object to be secured by means of an adhesive layer and the carrier substrate is then removed if necessary.
- the carrier substrate may be advantageous to provide with a release layer before applying the security features.
- the security element according to the invention can also have further security features, which can be present in further layers. These security features can be located below or above the layer which has the color shift effect according to the invention, whereby care must be taken not to disturb the impression of the moving color shift effect.
- the additional security features can also be printed in unprinted areas or instead of at least one of the Fig.5
- the pressure ranges 4, 5, 6 shown may be provided.
- These security features can have certain chemical, physical and also optical or optically active properties.
