摘要:
A labeled article, a method of making the labeled article, and a label for use in such method, contemplate the manufacture of an article having an article body made of a moldable material, and a label, integral with the article body and having an outer label surface coplanar with the outer article body surface. The label is inserted into the mold and molded into place as the article body is molded. The label has an outer film ply defining the outer label surface, a printable sheet ply inward from said outer film ply, and an adhesive layer between the outer film ply and the printable sheet ply. The outer film ply has a length and a width greater than the length and width of the printable sheet ply. The outer film ply extends beyond the printable sheet ply adjacent all edges of the printable sheet ply and shields the printable sheet ply from exposure to the environment surrounding the labeled article.

摘要:
A document uses a chemically reactive security ink to facilitate security, making it more difficult to alter a genuine security document. The chemically reactive security ink masks a warning word or message on a security document. The hidden warning word or message is revealed when the document is subjected to chemical washing.
摘要:
The invention is a method and system that is useful to authenticate security paper. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method and system that allows security paper to be authenticated more than once without destroying the authentication mechanism. An authenticating solution is applied to a surface of an authentic document or other authentic security paper. Subsequent application of an activating solution to a surface of a document containing the authenticating solution causes a reversible color change allowing the document to be authenticated.

A laminated product is provided including a carrier sheet, a polymeric film ply, a polymeric card ply, and a radiation-curable laminating adhesive. The polymeric film ply is secured to the carrier sheet and extends over a cut-out portion formed in the carrier sheet. The polymeric card ply is positioned within the cut-out portion. Either the film ply, the card ply, or both, are transparent to electromagnetic radiation. The radiation-curable laminating adhesive is positioned to secure the polymeric card ply to the exposed ply portion and comprises a bonding agent, a monomer, an oligomer, a tackifier, and a photocatalyst. The bonding agent is present in a quantity sufficient to improve the bonding characteristics of the adhesive composition. The monomer is present in a quantity sufficient to (i) increase the flexibility of the adhesive composition, and (ii) increase the tendency of the adhesive composition to release substantially cleanly from a surface to which it is bonded. The oligomer is present in a quantity sufficient to increase the dimensional stability of the adhesive composition. The tackifier is present in a quantity sufficient to increase the uncured tack of the adhesive composition. The photocatalyst is present in a quantity sufficient to increase the tendency of the adhesive composition to cure upon exposure to electromagnetic radiation.

A cellulosic substrate which is suitable for use as a mailer or envelope and which has at least one transparentized portion is provided. A method of transparentizing a cellulosic substrate by the application of a transparentizing material which provides enhanced toner adhesion properties, fast penetration rates and which is cured by exposure to radiation is also provided. The addition of small amounts of water to the transparentizing material enhances penetration rates. Further, these transparentizing materials may be applied without the need for solvents. These features thus permit continuous, in-line transparentization.

A thermally imagable business record such as a form, tag, label or the like is provided in which selected areas of the record may be activated to form an image upon exposure to heat. In one embodiment, at least one selected area of a substrate surface contains a thermally imagable coating of initially colorless color formers and color developers while the remaining areas of the substrate are left uncoated. The substrate may be pre-coated to provide a smooth, non-porous base coat for the thermally imagable coating, and may also include a protective coating layer to protect the subsequently printed thermal image.
摘要:
A security coating for business documents printed using noncontact as well as impact printing devices is provided which enhances the adhesion of toner particles and/or ink to a document substrate. Other security features may be also be added to the coating to provide a dual-function coating which also provides visible evidence of tampering, either by the application of solvents, mechanical abrasion, heat, or when pressure is applied.
摘要:
A window-containing mailer is provided which is suitable for use in nonimpact printers using heated fuser rolls. A heat and moisture resistant adhesive which resists picking at temperatures encountered in the fusing rolls secures a transparent polymeric film or glassine patch to the mailer substrate. The adhesive may be either a crosslinkable aqueous-based latex or emulsion or a radiation curable composition.
摘要:
A pattern of coating is applied to a label, such that the coating covers the periphery, including a portion of the top surface of the label, and overlaps onto the liner ply area adjacent to the label. The coating is selected to form a stable and resistant film that spans continuously along the label edge and liner surfaces. The coating reduces adhesive ooze when the label is exposed to elevated ambient temperatures and pressures.
