Definitions
- Stamping foil in particular hot stamping foil with decorative or securing elements
- the invention relates to an embossing film, in particular
- Hot stamping foil consisting of a carrier film and a transfer layer detachable therefrom, which - starting from the carrier film - has at least one transparent protective lacquer layer, a decorative layer structure formed by at least one layer, comprising decorative or securing elements, and an adhesive layer serving to fix the transfer layer on a substrate.
- stamping foils in particular hot stamping foils
- the transfer layer is transferred under the action of heat and pressure from the carrier film to a substrate to which the corresponding transfer layer adheres by means of the adhesive layer, which is generally a hot glue or a radiation-curable glue.
- the adhesive layer which is generally a hot glue or a radiation-curable glue.
- the transfer layer should not be transferred to the substrate over the entire area, but rather only certain areas of the transfer layer, for example decorative elements, which are produced in the transfer layer in a manner known per se by means of printing processes, etc.
- Hot stamping foils are also used extensively, in particular for the application of security elements, for example on securities, such as banknotes, credit cards, ID cards etc. or other objects to be secured. It is important that only the respective securing element or the area of the transfer layer corresponding to the securing element is detached from the carrier film and fixed on the substrate.
- the procedure is that the stamping foil is pressed against the base by means of appropriately shaped stamps. The required pressure is then only exerted on the transfer layer in the area of the stamp, which is intended to ensure that only the part of the transfer layer acted upon by the stamp adheres to the substrate, while the rest of the transfer layer is removed with the carrier film.
- the problem further arises that only very specific materials can be used for the transfer layer.
- the materials have to be selected in such a way that the transfer layer tears off cleanly along the edge of the stamp, and special selection of the release layer between the transfer layer and carrier film also has to ensure that the transfer layer is easy in the areas that are to be transferred to the substrate detaches from the carrier film, but adheres perfectly to the carrier film in the other areas.
- the transfer layer along the edge of the stamp is not torn off properly.
- Another disadvantage is that easily tearing transfer layers along the edge of the stamp are generally not mechanically resistant, which e.g. in the case of a security element, but also in the case of a decorative element, means that when the corresponding object is used, it is frequently destroyed after a very short time as a result of mechanical influences.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of designing an embossing foil, in particular hot stamping foil, in such a way that, without special measures, it is possible to transfer individual regions of the transfer layer, in particular in the form of decorative or securing elements, to a substrate, with the transfer to the Substrate no specially shaped stamps are required, but instead, for example, rollers or rollers can be used.
- an embossing film in particular hot stamping film of the type mentioned at the outset, in such a way that at least the adhesive layer only in regions and in register with another layer which is likewise only in regions or the decoration or securing elements of the transfer layer which are only regionally formed is provided. It is therefore essential in the case of the embossing foils according to the invention that, as a result of the adhesive layer being applied only in regions, it is ensured that the transfer layer adheres to the substrate only where the adhesive layer is present. It therefore does not matter whether pressure is also exerted on the transfer layer outside of the adhesive layer. Nevertheless, only the area of the transfer layer that corresponds to the adhesive layer can adhere to the substrate.
- embossing film according to the invention it is therefore possible, for example, to decorate or label areas or the like. to carry out a substrate in a continuous process, for example by means of rollers or rollers.
- Another advantage of the embossing film according to the invention can also be seen in the fact that a perfect match of the adhesive layer that is present in some areas with the areas of the transfer layer to be transferred can be achieved without difficulty, because usually both the various layers of the transfer layer and the adhesive layer in one printing process be applied. As is well known, the perfect alignment of different layers lying on top of each other is no problem when printing.
- embossing foils according to the invention can also be produced for substrates with a very rough surface, for example paper, with excellent adhesion and physicochemical resistance.
- embossing film according to the invention thus offers, compared to what has hitherto been customary, both considerable advantages with regard to the tools which can be used for transfer to the substrate, and above all with regard to the accuracy in delimiting the areas of the transfer layer to be applied to the substrate.
- the embossing film according to the invention with the adhesive layer provided only in some areas permits the use of mechanically substantially more stable layers for the transfer layer in a large number of cases.
- a release layer can be provided in a manner known per se between the carrier film and the transfer layer, it being particularly advantageous if, according to the invention, the release layer is only provided in regions and in register with the adhesive layer.
- the protective lacquer layer is provided over the entire surface and is formed by a lacquer which adheres well to the carrier film outside the regions covered by the release layer, a measure which likewise supports a clean separation along the edge of the regions of the transfer layer to be transferred.
- the protective lacquer layer is only provided in regions and in register with the adhesive layer.
- This embodiment has the particular advantage that mechanically particularly stable protective lacquer layers can be used, because the protective lacquer layer does not have to be severed or torn during application to the substrate.
- Such an embodiment will be provided in particular if the objects or substrates decorated or secured with the embossing film according to the invention are exposed to high mechanical stresses, as is the case, for example, for banknotes, ATM cards, etc.
- the decorative or securing elements are formed by spatial optical structures which are formed in the protective lacquer layer on its side facing away from the carrier film and are arranged in register with the adhesive layer.
- the additional arrangement of such security elements in a transparent protective lacquer layer is known. It is essential, however, that due to the registration of the spatial structures to the adhesive layer one perfect alignment and clean delimitation of the spatial structures is achieved and these do not fray, particularly in the area of their edge, so far possibly the entire appearance of a securing element and the further processing, for example
- the side of the protective lacquer layer which has the spatial structures can, in a manner known per se
- coating the optical properties of which differ from those of the protective lacquer layer, the coating being formed in particular by a reflective material, preferably metal.
- the spatial structures according to the invention are generally arranged in register with the adhesive layer, it is particularly expedient if the coating is carried out over the entire surface, specifically because coatings can be applied over the entire surface much more easily and, above all, without additional measures or work steps. Nevertheless, the full-surface coating usually does not interfere, because the layer thicknesses of such coatings are so small that they can be easily transferred along the
- the coating can also be applied partially and in register with the spatial structure in order to achieve a particularly clean delimitation of the transferred layers.
- the protective lacquer layer and / or the release layer cover the areas of the adhesive layer and / or the decorative or Safety elements protrude on all sides by at least 0.2 mm.
- the protrusion of the protective lacquer layer and possibly the detachment layer over the decorative or securing elements and at the same time over the adhesive layer offers the advantage that the protective lacquer layer is applied closely to the substrate along its edge during the transfer process, the protruding area of the protective lacquer layer generally also working perfectly Substrate adheres because the adhesive layer, due to its thickness, even if only small, is nevertheless compressed during the transfer process and is thus pressed outwards in the direction of the edge of the protective lacquer layer.
- Figures 1 to 3 show, in each case in section, sections from the corresponding hot stamping foils.
- the hot stamping foils each comprise a carrier film 1, for example a polyester film with a thickness of approximately 20 ⁇ m.
- a release layer 2 with a layer thickness of approximately 0.01 to 0.1 ⁇ m is applied to a surface of this carrier film 1 in regions or over the entire surface.
- a transparent protective lacquer layer 3 then follows, likewise over the entire surface (FIGS. 1 and 3) or in regions (FIG. 2).
- the protective lacquer layer 3 has a layer thickness of 0.8 to 2.5 ⁇ m when applied over the entire surface. preferably from 1.2 to 1.7 ⁇ m. If, on the other hand, the protective lacquer layer is only partially provided in accordance with FIG. 2, then its layer thickness is 1.5 to 3.0 ⁇ m, preferably 2.0 to 2.5 ⁇ m, that is to say in the case of partial or partial application, the thickness of the protective lacquer layer 3 is usually thicker than with a full-surface protective lacquer layer.
- the transparent protective lacquer layer is provided with a diffractive-optical spatial structure 4 in the areas intended for transfer to the substrate, in order to form securing elements, but possibly only to form decorative elements, the spatial structures 4 being replaced by appropriate replication or Embossing are formed by means of a corresponding master on the surface 5 of the protective lacquer layer facing away from the carrier film 1.
- Protective lacquer layer 3 and the corresponding introduction of the spatial structures 4 provide the entire, free surface of the partially finished stamping film with a coating 6, a suitable, reflecting metal preferably being evaporated in vacuo.
- the thickness of the coating 6 depends on which material is used for this. If it is metal, it is of the order of a few A, namely 50-500 ⁇ , preferably 100-200 ⁇ .
- the coating 6 can also be formed, for example, by a dielectric which has different optical properties than the material of the protective lacquer layer 3. Dependent the layer thickness of the coating 6 can then be considerably greater depending on the type of material.
- the uppermost layer (in the drawing) of the hot stamping foils of the exemplary embodiments in each case forms an adhesive layer 7 which is applied only in regions, the adhesive layer 7 being provided essentially only in the regions in which decorative or securing elements, that is to say the spatial structures 4 in the exemplary embodiments shown , available.
- the adhesive layer 7 is usually applied in a layer thickness of 3.0 to 10.0 ⁇ m, preferably 4.0 to 6.0 ⁇ m.
- the release layer 2 is only applied in certain areas, specifically in the areas in which the spatial structure 4 for forming the decorative or securing elements on the protective lacquer layer 3 and the adhesive layer 7 are provided. 1 shows that the release layer 2 extends beyond the spatial structure 4 or the adhesive layer 7 by a dimension a, which should be at least 0.2 mm.
- the release layer 2 is provided over the entire surface.
- the protective lacquer layer 3 only present in some areas, and in accordance with the adhesive layer 7 only in the areas where 4 decorative or securing elements are formed by the spatial structure.
- the protective lacquer layer 3 like the release layer 2 in FIG. 1, protrudes on all sides by the dimension a over the adhesive layer 7 and the spatial structure 4, the dimension a here also being at least 0.2 mm.
- both the release layer 2 and the protective lacquer layer 3 are provided over the entire surface. Only the adhesive layer 7 is only present in the areas to be transferred with the spatial structure 4, the adhesive layer 7 again jumping back by a dimension of at least 0.2 mm with respect to the spatial structure 4.
- the hot stamping foils according to the exemplary embodiments are produced in a manner known per se from the production of hot stamping foils such that the release layer 2 and the protective lacquer layer 3 are applied to the carrier film 1 in a corresponding layer thickness or distribution in a printing process.
- the protective lacquer layer 3 is either thermoplastic or consists of a lacquer which cures only under the influence of certain radiation or after a certain time after crosslinking.
- the spatial structure 4 is embossed into a thermoplastic protective lacquer layer 3 under the influence of heat by means of matrices known per se.
- the protective lacquer layer 3 is a lacquer layer which cures under the action of certain radiation, for example UV radiation, or only after a certain time, the spatial structure 4 is brought into the surface 5 of the surface in a replication process Protective lacquer layer 3 as long as the lacquer forming layer 3 has not yet fully hardened.
- the film which has been partially finished in this way is then provided with the coating 6, for example aluminum is vacuum-evaporated to an appropriate thickness.
- the coating 6 can be formed both over the entire surface as well as partially and in register with the spatial structure 4.
- the adhesive layer 7 is then applied in some areas, the registration of the adhesive layer 7 with respect to the release layer 2 (FIG. 1).
- the protective lacquer layer 3 (FIG. 2) or the spatial structure 4 (FIG. 3) is carried out by corresponding scanning of the layers already present on the carrier film 1.
- a suitable marking pigment can be added to the release layer 2 and protective lacquer layer 3, if they are only present in some areas.
- the individual layers can be composed as follows:
- Marking pigment e.g. benzoxazole derivative
- Marking pigment e.g. benzoxazole derivative
- Polyisocyanate (50% ethyl acetate, NCO content 8%) 50 g
- Adhesive layer in some areas
- the embossing foils according to the invention are pressed against a substrate with the adhesive layer applied in advance, the pressure being able to be applied, for example, using a full-surface steel wheel, but also using a suitable segment wheel.
- the transfer layer designated as a whole with 8, which at least consists of a protective lacquer layer 3, the coating 6 and the adhesive layer 7, then essentially detaches from the carrier film 1 only in the areas in which an adhesive layer 7 is provided.
- stamping foils according to the invention are not designed as hot stamping foils but are intended for cold processing, i.e. the adhesive layer is already tacky even at room temperature, it is possible to provide the carrier film 1 on the side facing away from the transfer layer 8 with a corresponding coating which prevents the adhesive layer 7 from adhering to the carrier film 1 when the films are being wound up.
