Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the production of strongly adherent (embossed) films on flexible substrates, security elements, obtainable by the process and security documents, comprising the security elements. By coating a flexible substrate first with a primer layer and then with an embossed film the adherence of the embossed film to the substrate is improved while keeping the optical performance of the embossed film.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for producing polymerized films with line texture or fingerprint texture or for producing substrates coated with polymerized films with line texture or fingerprint texture, to polymerized films, obtainable by this process, with line texture or fingerprint texture or substrates coated with polymerized films with line texture or fingerprint texture, to pigments obtainable by comminuting such films, to the use of such films, substrates or pigments as or in optical filter(s), polarizers, decorative media, forgeryproof markers, reflective media or for focusing light (in solar cells), to the use of such films as an antibacterial coating, to a forgeryproof marker which comprises such a film, and to a process for detecting forgeryproof markings.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to microparticle compositions comprising an organic IR absorbing pigment having a main absorption maximum in the range from 750 to 1100 nm. The invention also relates to a process for producing said microparticle compositions and to their use in a printing ink, in particular in a printing ink, which is suitable for producing a security feature or a security document. The microparticles of the pigment composition contain the organic IR absorbing pigment as solid particles, which are surrounded by or embedded in an aminoplast polymer, which is a polycondensation product of one or more amino compounds and one or more aldehydes. The microparticle based pigment composition is characterized by a volume based particle size distribution, as determined by static light scattering according to ISO 13320:2009 EN, having a D(4,3) value in the range from 1.0 to 15.0 µm.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of specific naphthalocyanine chromophores with different axial substituents as almost colourless IR absorbers for security printing applications.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to naphthalocyanine and phthalocyanine chromophores of formula (I), their use as almost colourless IR absorbers, for optical filter applications, especially for plasma display panels, or for laser welding of plastics. The compounds may be used in compositions for inks, paints and plastics, especially in a wide variety of printing systems and are particularly well-suited for security applications.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to complex security elements based on liquid crystal coatings which are subsequently coated with specific metallic nano-shaped metal particles, a method for their manufacture, in particular on a glass, paper or on a plastic substrate and a security product obtainable using the security element. The security element may contain additionally an embossed surface relief microstructure, especially an optically variable image (an
