    Abstract: Retroreflective articles include a layer of optical elements (110,120,130), embedded in a bead bond layer (140). The optical elements include transparent microspheres (110), at least one colored polymeric layer (120) covering the transparent microspheres, and a reflective layer (130) covering the colored polymeric layer. The polymeric layer includes at least one nanopigment. The transparent microspheres have a diameter range of 80-120 micrometers, with at least 75% of the transparent microspheres having a diameter range of 85-105 micrometers.

    Abstract: An exposed lens retroreflective article (100), transfer articles comprising same, and methods of making same. The retroreflective article can include a binder layer (114); a layer of transparent microspheres (108) partially embedded in the binder layer; and reflective layer (110) disposed between the binder layer and the microspheres. The reflective layer (110) can include a dielectric mirror, which can include a first stack (115) and a second stack (111) positioned in planar contact with the first stack, wherein each of the first stack and the second stack comprises at least one bilayer (119), wherein each bilayer comprises a first material with a first bonding group and a second material with a complementary second bonding group. The transfer article can include the retroreflective article and a carrier web. The method can include partially embedding transparent microspheres in a carrier web; applying the reflective layer to the microspheres, and applying a binder layer composition to the reflective layer.

    Abstract: Retroreflective articles include a layer of optical elements, the layer of optical elements being divided into at least a first segment (110) and second segment (120), and a bead bond layer (170) containing a colorant. The optical elements are partially embedded in the bead bond layer. The optical elements include transparent microspheres (140), a transparent polymeric layer (180), and at least one reflective layer. In the first segment of optical elements, the reflective layer is a dielectric reflective layer (150), and in the second segment of optical elements, the reflective layer is a reflective metallic layer (160). The retroreflective articles have improved wash durability.
