Abstract
Beschrieben wird ein Thermotransferband mit einem Träger, mit einer auf einer Seite des Trägers ausgebildeten Thermotransferfarbe und mit gegebenenfalls weiteren Schichten, wobei die Thermotransferfarbe neben einem Farbmittel ein amorphes Polymer und ein Wachs enthält. Dieses ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß die Thermotransferfarbe als Bindemittel ein polares Polyethylenwachs und ein amorphes Polymer, das ein Gewichtsmittel der Molmasse Mw von mehr als etwa 10.000 und ein Zahtenmittel der Molmasse Mn von weniger als etwa 6.000 aufweist, enthält. Es erweist sich bei Ausdrucken mit hohem Energielevel eines Thermodruckers auf insbesondere Kunststoffetiketten als kratz- und lösemittelfest.A thermal transfer ribbon with a carrier is described, with one on one side the thermal transfer ink formed by the carrier and, if appropriate, with further Layers, the thermal transfer color in addition to a colorant an amorphous Contains polymer and a wax. This is characterized in that the Thermal transfer ink as a binder a polar polyethylene wax and an amorphous Polymer having a weight average molecular weight Mw greater than about 10,000 and has a tooth average molecular weight Mn of less than about 6,000. It proves itself when printing with a high energy level of a thermal printer especially plastic labels as scratch and solvent resistant.
