Diese Schichten können jeweils Codierungen oder negative Codierungen in Form von Mustem, Zeichen, Mikro- und Makrolinien, Buchstaben, Bildern, mathematisch definierbare Linienelemente, Reliefs, Guilldchen sowie maschinenlesbare Elemente und dergleichen aufweisen.These layers may each comprise encodings or negative encodings in the form of patterns, characters, micro- and macro-lines, letters, images, mathematically definable line elements, reliefs, guillotines as well as machine-readable elements and the like.

Als schwer bzw. nicht benetzbare oder hydrophobe Schichten kommen beispielsweise Lackschichten mit niedriger Oberflächenenergie oder nanstrukturierten Oberflächen in Frage. Als Lackzusammensetzungen kommen beispielsweise Lacke auf Methacrylatbasis mit Additiven, wie Silikonölen Polyethylen oder Fluorpolymeren und dergleichen in Frage. Ferner können auch sehr dünn aufgetragene Ölschichten, Polyamid-, Polyethylen- oder Fluorpolymere, Wachsschichten, ggf. UV-vernetzbare Silikone, oder langkettige Kohlenwasserstoffe verwendet werden.As hard or non-wettable or hydrophobic layers are, for example, paint layers with low surface energy or nanstrukturierten surfaces in question. Suitable coating compositions are, for example, methacrylate-based paints with additives, such as silicone oils, polyethylene or fluoropolymers, and the like. Furthermore, very thinly applied oil layers, polyamide, polyethylene or fluoropolymers, wax layers, optionally UV-crosslinkable silicones, or long-chain hydrocarbons can be used.

Ferner kann auf das Trägersubstrat im Bereich des nach der Einbettung in das Substrat des Wertdokumentes sichtbaren Teils des Trägersubstrats ein Schichtaufbau entsprechender Dicke aufgebracht werden, sodass sich bei der Herstellung des Wertdokumentssubstrats in diesem Bereich keine Substrat ablagern kann. Hier kann beispielsweise über den entsprechenden optischen Merkmalen ein Filter oder eine Linse, beispielsweise aus Kunststoff aufgebracht werden, wobei das darunter liegende Merkmal beispielsweise erst sichtbar oder auch vergrößert sichtbar wird.Furthermore, a layer structure of corresponding thickness can be applied to the carrier substrate in the area of the part of the carrier substrate visible after embedding in the substrate of the document of value, so that no substrate can be deposited in this area during the production of the value-document substrate. Here, for example, be applied over the corresponding optical features a filter or a lens, for example made of plastic, the underlying feature example, only visible or enlarged is visible.

Als thermisch aktivierbare Beschichtung, die im Bereich der Verankerung des Folienmaterials im Substrat auf dem Folienmaterial vorhanden ist kommt beispielsweise eine Zusammensetzung, die auf Basis eines Ethylen-Acrylatcopolymers aufgebaut ist und die in verschiedensten Lackier- und Druckverfahren, im Glattwalzenverfahren, Raster- und Linienrasterverfahren, jeweils unter Mit- und Gegenlauf aufbringbar ist, in Frage. Eine entsprechend geeignete Beschichtungszusammensetzung ist beispielsweise in der DE 10256493 A1 beschrieben.As a thermally activatable coating which is present in the region of the anchoring of the film material in the substrate on the film material, for example, comes a composition which is based on an ethylene-acrylate and in a variety of painting and printing processes, in the smooth-roller process, grid and line grid method, in each case can be applied under co-and counter run, in question. A suitably suitable coating composition is described, for example, in DE 10256493 A1.

Die thermisch aktivierbare Beschichtungszusammensetzung kann gegebenenfalls gefärbt und/oder pigmentiert sein, wobei alle bekannten Farbstoffe bzw. Pigmente geeignet sind.The thermally activatable coating composition may optionally be colored and / or pigmented, all known dyes or pigments being suitable.

Ferner kann das erfindungsgemäße Sicherheitselement im Bereich der Verankerung im Substrat des Wertdokuments durch nach dem Stand der Technik bekannte Verfahren perforiert und/oder mikroperforiert und/oder (chemisch oder mechanisch) angeraut und/oder geprägt sein.Furthermore, the security element according to the invention in the region of anchoring in the substrate of the value document by according to the state of Technique known methods perforated and / or microperforated and / or (chemically or mechanically) roughened and / or embossed.

Dadurch wird die Haftung verbessert, sodass eine Ablösbarkeit des Sicherheitsmerkmals praktisch ausgeschlossen werden kann.
Allerdings ist im Allgemeinen jedoch je nach verwendetem Substrat des Wertpapiers eine dieser Maßnahmen ausreichend.As a result, the adhesion is improved, so that a detachability of the security feature can be virtually eliminated.
However, in general, depending on the substrate used for the security, one of these measures is sufficient.

Das beschriebene Folienmaterial kann entweder durch Applikation auf oder vorzugsweise durch Einbettung in das gegebenenfalls mehrschichtige Substrat des Wertdokuments erfolgen.
Das Substrat des Wertdokuments können dabei Kunststofffolien, beispielsweise aus PI, PP, MOPP, PE, PPS, PEEK, PEK, PEI, PSU, PAEK, LCP, PEN, PBT, PET, PA, PC, COC, POM, ABS, PVC bilden.
Ferner können als Trägersubstrat auch Metallfolien, beispielsweise Al-, Cu-, Sn-, Ni-, Fe- oder Edelstahlfolien dienen. Die Folien können auch oberflächenbehandelt, beschichtet oder kaschiert beispielsweise mit Kunststoffen oder lackiert sein.The sheet material described can be made either by application to or preferably by embedding in the optionally multi-layered substrate of the value document.
The substrate of the document of value can thereby form plastic films, for example of PI, PP, MOPP, PE, PPS, PEEK, PEK, PEI, PSU, PAEK, LCP, PEN, PBT, PET, PA, PC, COC, POM, ABS, PVC ,
Furthermore, metal foils, for example Al, Cu, Sn, Ni, Fe or stainless steel foils, can serve as the carrier substrate. The films can also be surface-treated, coated or laminated, for example, with plastics or painted.

Ferner können als Substrate auch Papier, zellstoffhaltiges oder zellstofffreies Papier, Baumwollpapier, oder Verbunde mit Papier, beispielsweise Verbunde mit Kunststoffen mit einem Flächengewicht von 20 - 500 g/m2, vorzugsweise 40 - 200 g/m2. verwendet werden.Further, as substrates and paper, pulp-containing or cellulose-free paper, cotton paper, or composites with paper, for example, composites with plastics having a basis weight of 20 - 500 g / m 2 , preferably 40 - 200 g / m 2 . be used.

Ferner können als Substrate des Wertdokuments auch Gewebe oder Vliese, wie Endlosfaservliese, Stapelfaservliese und dergleichen, die gegebenenfalls vernadelt und/oder kalandriert sein können, verwendet werden. Vorzugsweise bestehen solche Gewebe oder Vliese aus Kunststoffen, wie PP, PET, PA, PPS und dergleichen, es können aber auch Gewebe oder Vliese aus natürlichen, gegebenenfalls behandelten Fasern, wie Viskosefasern eingesetzt werden.Furthermore, as substrates of the value document, it is also possible to use fabrics or nonwovens, such as continuous fiber webs, staple fiber webs and the like, which may optionally be needled and / or calendered. Preferably such fabrics or webs of plastics, such as PP, PET, PA, PPS and the like, but it can also be woven or nonwovens made of natural, optionally treated fibers, such as viscose fibers are used.

Die ein- oder beidseitige Applikation auf das entsprechende Substrat bzw. die Applikation zwischen zwei Schichten eines bereits formstabilen Substrats kann dabei durch register- und passergenaue Aufbringung des Folienmaterials auf beispielweise aus der EP-1 318 816 bekannte Weise erfolgen, wobei im Substrat entsprechende Aussparungen vorgesehen sind, in denen das beschriebene Folienmaterial die Aussparungen ein- oder beidseitig überbrückt, bzw. zwischen den Schichten eingebettet ist.The one- or two-sided application to the corresponding substrate or the application between two layers of an already dimensionally stable substrate can be carried out by register and register precise application of the film material in known manner, for example from EP-1 318 816, provided in the substrate corresponding recesses are in which the film material described bridges the recesses on one or both sides, or is embedded between the layers.

Vorzugsweise wird das beschriebene Folienmaterial allerdings bereits bei der Herstellung des Substrats registergenau eingebettet bzw. appliziert.
Dabei wird an jener Stelle, an der das beschriebene Folienmaterial an der Oberfläche sichtbar sein soll, eine leicht ablösbare Zusammensetzung des Substrats vorgesehen, beispielsweise ein Wasserzeichen.However, the described film material is preferably already embedded or applied in register during the production of the substrate.
In this case, an easily removable composition of the substrate is provided at the point at which the described sheet material is to be visible on the surface, for example a watermark.

Im Anschluss an die Herstellung des Substrats des Wertdokuments kann dann das über dem Teil des Folienmaterials, das mit der das Substrats abweisenden Beschichtung versehen ist, die dennoch ggf. auf dem Folienmaterial verbleibenden Reste des Substrats leicht mechanisch entfernt werden.
Je nach verwendeter Beschichtung des Folienmaterials kann die gegebenenfalls gebildete Papierschicht einfach abgeschoben, abgespült, abgeblasen oder auch erst beim Schneidvorgang abgezogen werden.Subsequent to the production of the substrate of the value document, it is then possible to easily mechanically remove the remainder of the substrate remaining on the film material over the part of the film material that is provided with the coating repelling the substrate.
Depending on the coating of the film material used, the optionally formed paper layer can simply be deported, rinsed off, blown off or even removed during the cutting process.

Dabei kann die Aussparung im Substrat des Wertdokuments jede beliebige geometrische Form, beispielsweise eine kreis-, trapez-, rechteck- quadrat- oder mehreck- oder elliptische Form aufweisen.
Gegebenenfalls kann die Form der Aussparung im Substrat auch mit einem bestimmten Wert oder einer bestimmten Funktion, oder einer bestimmten Origination in Korrelation stehen.In this case, the recess in the substrate of the value document can have any desired geometric shape, for example a circular, trapezoidal, rectangular square or polygonal or elliptical shape.
