Description

  The present invention relates to an IC tag label that can be read and written in a non-contact manner, and relates to an IC tag label that can be easily peeled off from a release paper.

  IC tag labels record and hold information, and can exchange information by communicating with external devices in a non-contact manner, so as a recognition medium in transportation and logistics in recent years, or product quality control, inventory control, library book management, etc. It is becoming widely used for various purposes.

  This non-contact IC tag label has a form in which a coiled antenna or a dipole antenna is formed on a base film surface made of a film or paper substrate, and an IC chip is mounted on the antenna. Further, by using a sheet having printability suitable for a printer or the like on the front side, characters, symbols, designs, etc. are printed on the front side and used. (Patent Document 1)

  When printing on the surface of an IC tag label, printing to the edge of the label may cause inconveniences such as printing ink protruding beyond the label. A label portion that is not attached with an antenna or an IC chip is provided so as to surround the ink, and a method corresponding to the protrusion of ink is performed.
