Abstract:
A foil composite material usable as a layer in a card body of a portable data carrier, that includes one outer plastic layer, one inner plastic layer and one second outer plastic layer. All the layers jointly form a coextruded composite, and the plastic of one outer layer is a thermoplastic polymer or a mixture thereof. The plastic of the one inner layer is a mixture of at least one thermoplastic elastomer and at least one thermoplastic polymer. The plastic of the second outer layer is a thermoplastic polymer or a mixture thereof.
Abstract:
A card body for a portable data carrier, in particular a chip card or magnetic strip card, and a method for manufacturing a card body. The card body includes at least a coextruded foil having at least two areas with different material properties. By using coextruded foils a card body consisting of a plurality of alternating opaque and transmissive strips as well as a card body with a window can be formed in a simple fashion.
Abstract:
A method for producing a foil composite material, in particular for use as a layer in a card body, preferably in a card body of a portable data carrier, whereby using a coextrusion process, at least a first plastic melt of plastic including a thermoplastic elastomer and at least a second plastic melt of plastic without a thermoplastic elastomer, are joined in such a fashion that a foil composite material is formed. This foil composite material contains one or several outer first layers of plastic without a thermoplastic elastomer, one or several middle second layers of plastic including a thermoplastic elastomer and one or several outer third layers of plastic without a thermoplastic elastomer.
Abstract:
A card laminate is produced from a centrally disposed foil laminate (1) consisting of an interior layer (2) with a metal layer (3) and with two exterior transparent plastic layers (4a, 4b), and two exterior plastic films (5a, 5b) of which at least the plastic film (5a) overlying the metal layer (3) is transparent and carries a print (6a). If the print (6a) is on the exterior, a transparent cover layer (7a) is furthermore provided. Materials and layer thicknesses are preferably selected symmetrically to the interior, metallized layer (2, 3) in order to reduce warping effects.

Abstract:
A data carrier card and a method for producing a data carrier card, in particular a chip card or magnetic stripe card. The data carrier card has a card body having one or several foils, where the foil or at least one of the foils is a coextruded foil having at least two areas with different material properties. The use of coextruded foils makes it possible to form in a simple manner different areas in the card body which differ from each other in material quality. In particular, it is possible to form for example a data carrier card with a card body having a plurality of alternating opaque and transmissive strips or with window strips and/or windows enclosed in the surface of the card body.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a data carrier card and to a method for producing a data carrier card, in particular a chip card or magnetic stripe card. The data carrier card according to the invention comprises a card body (1, 101, 201, 301, 401) comprising one or several foils, whereby the foil (2) or at least one of the foils (2, 3, 4) is a coextruded foil (2) comprising at least two areas with different material properties. The use of coextruded foils makes it possible to form in a simple manner different areas in the card body which differ from each other in material quality. In particular, it is possible to form for example a data carrier card with a card body comprising a plurality of alternating opaque and transmissive strips or with window strips and/or windows enclosed in the surface of the card body.
Abstract:
An image-receiving layer (1) for receiving information (5) transferred by transfer thermography, and the use of same in portable data carriers. According to the invention, the image-receiving layer (1) is formed of two parts, a carrier layer (2) as well as an acceptor layer (3), and is produced by co-extruding two source materials, one of which being an amorphous polyester, e.g. PETG, the other a mixture of PETG with 10 to 90 wt. % styrene polymer.
Abstract:
Apparatus for carrying out a method for the catalytic conversion of waste gases such as those which accumulate in the synthesis of vinyl chloride is presented in which the waste gases are successively treated at an elevated temperature with a catalyst for oxidative cracking and with a catalyst for oxidative afterburning.
Abstract:
A process for the purification of 1,2-dichloroethane is described, in which the crude product, containing not more than 3% by weight of high-boilers, is distilled in a first column at 125.degree. to 180.degree. C. in such a way that the bottom product contains not more than 7% by weight of high-boilers. The purified, vaporous 1,2-dichloroethane discharged at the head of this column is used to heat product streams containing 1,2-dichloroethane. The bottom product from the first column is distilled in a second column, advantageously at a pressure of 5 to 40 kPa, together with a feed composed of vaporous 1,2-dichloroethane obtained from the reaction of ethylene with chlorine. The process makes it possible to purify 1,2-dichloroethane with a saving in energy.
