摘要:
This invention provides a thermoplastic multilayer resinous film in which two or more resinous materials form a plurality of very thin layers of substantially uniform thickness, the layers being substantially parallel, the contiguous adjacent layers being of different transparent thermoplastic resinous materials differing in refractive index, each of the outermost skin layers being at least 5 % of the total thickness of the film and the multilayer film containing a sufficient quantity of a pearlescent pigment to render it non-glossy.

The invention is directed to laminated multilayered films which generate unique color via two distinct reflection peaks. Each multilayered iridescent film has a dominant wave length reflective band which is different from the other multilayered film laminated thereto. The present iridescent film may be used in flexible and rigid decorative packaging.

A method for manufacturing a thin metal film with an embossed pattern, which enables the precise transfer of the embossed pattern and generates a strong interference color is provided. An embossing belt 10 having an embossed pattern formed on one surface thereof is coated with a thermosetting transparent resin 12. The transparent resin 12 is dried and cured and is coated with PVA which is sintered to form a PVA layer 20, whereby the transfer of the embossed pattern is completed. After that, the transparent resin 12 with the PVA layer 20 bonded to the surface opposite to the embossed pattern is peeled from the embossing belt 10 and reeled in, and an aluminum layer 24 is deposited on the surface of the belt 10 on which the embossed pattern is formed. The aluminum layer 24 is coated with another transparent resin and the PVA layer 20 is removed through a dissolving step. Resulting resin layers are pulverized to create a hologram pigment.

To provide a method for the production of a decorative film, by which minute uneven patterns can randomly be formed on a metal layer, and a decorative film which presents rainbow color appearances irrespective of observing directions. The decorative film of the present invention is produced from a decorative film precursor comprising the first resin layer, the second layer having a thickness of 0.3 to 0.8 νm, and a metal layer, which are laminated in this order. When the decorative film precursor is heated at a specific temperature for a certain time, and then cooled, the second resin layer reversibly expands and shrinks. During the expansion and shrinkage of the second resin layer, the metal layer in contact with the second resin layer plastically deforms, and minute uneven patterns are formed. The minute uneven patterns function as a diffraction gratin which presents rainbow color appearances irrespective of observing directions.

The present invention provides transparent decorative articles formed from a transparent substrate (8), glass microspheres (4), and a bonding layer (6), optional layers, and optional coatings, having an etched appearance or rainbow-like appearance depending on illumination conditions and viewing angle. Transfer graphics and transfer media are also provided. The ratio of the transparent microsphere refractive index to the transparent microsphere bonding layer refractive index is about 1.3:1 to about 1.7:1. From about 20 % to about 80 % of the average diameter of each microsphere is embedded in the bonding layer.

A coloured material comprises a plurality of substantially parallel laminae (2, 3) of a chiral liquid crystal polymer. The material appears blue when viewed normal to the surface of the laminae and red when viewed at an oblique angle. The laminae may take the form of a plurality of superimposed layers, one layer reflecting blue light and another layer reflecting infrared light when viewed normal to the surface, and the one layer reflecting ultraviolet light and the other layer reflecting red light when viewed at an oblique angle. The laminae may alternatively take the form of flakes, each flake comprising either one lamina or a plurality of layers, distributed in a light transmissive medium, e.g. to form an ink for security-marking objects or a cosmetic.
摘要:
An iridescent sign and its method of manufacture requires a transparent substrate having a design printed thereon using a four-color process. A transparent film, having a pigment printed thereon, is laminated to the substrate with the design positioned between the substrate and the film. To obtain additional visual effects for the sign, selected portions of the substrate may be textured. Additionally, certain portions of the design can be masked with an opaque ink to give the masked portions a flat appearance while the remained of the sign retains its iridescent qualities.
