  • Covert security features are generally not made public and are preferably only detectable with the aid of special devices, such as automatic cash and note handling machines. Modem banknotes contain a range of these features, with an even higher-level security feature reserved exclusively for the issuing authority.
  • Machine readable security features can be located in one or more regions of the banknote, either in the substrate, in the printing or as an applied feature. Some examples of such features include holograms, security threads, magnetic inks, fluorescent pigments, phosphorescent materials, thermo chromic features and conductive metallic features.

  • Coercivity also called the magnetic coercivity, coercive field or coercive force, is a measure of the ability of a ferromagnetic material to withstand an external magnetic field without becoming demagnetized. Coercivity is usually measured in oersted or ampere/meter units and is denoted Oe. Coercivity is usually measured in Oersted (Oe) units to denote the magnetic stripe’s strength or intensity. Coercivity is also known as coercive force. Since the coercive force is much lower for soft magnetic materials, it makes sense to use them for applications where the polarity will be reversed often. The higher coercivity of hard magnetic materials makes them suitable for use where the applied field is insufficient to demagnetize them.
  • Coercivity refers to the magnetic material’s resistance to becoming demagnetized - therefore, HiCo and LoCo represent different standards of card durability and security.
  • HiCo stands for high-coercivity.
  • High-coercivity (HiCo) stripes are magnetically harder .
  • HiCo magnetic stripe cards are typically black in color and they are encoded with a stronger magnetic field (2750 Oersted). The magnetic coercivity ranges from 1250 to 4000 oe for high coercivity. The stronger magnetic field makes HiCo cards more durable because the data encoded on the stripes are less likely to unintentionally be erased when exposed to an outside magnetic field.
  • LoCo stands for low-coercivity.
  • Low- coercivity (LoCo) stripes are magnetically softer.LoCo magnetic stripe cards are generally brown in color and they are encoded at a low-intensity magnetic field (300 Oersted). The magnetic coercivity ranges from 100 to 650oe for low coercivity LoCo is best suited for cards used infrequently and/or where data is routinely changed, such as with hotel key cards.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un signe de sécurité pour billets de banque. Plus particulièrement, la présente invention concerne un signe de sécurité basée sur une combinaison d'éléments magnétiques structurés qui est composée de différentes zones de coercivité qui sont appliquées/déposées/imprimées à proximité les unes des autres et encore séparées les unes des autres par un élément de séparation tel qu'une encre magnétique ou non magnétique de telle sorte que différentes zones de coercivité ne se chevauchent pas, ce qui permet d'obtenir un fil de sécurité plus sûr, plus complexe et plus efficace, avec des codes multiples exceptionnels, et son procédé de fabrication.
