Abstract: A method is provided for producing banknotes, which include, in each case, at least one integrated circuit. The banknotes are produced from a sheet or from a material web in a production panel. In at least a plurality of these banknotes, or in each of these banknotes, an aperture is created through their substrate. In each case, an integrated circuit is arranged in the relevant aperture. In a first method step, each of the integrated circuits to be arranged in one of the apertures is arranged, with respect to the intended position in each of the banknotes that include an aperture, in the correct position on a band-shaped foil, and, in the second method step, each of these integrated circuits is transferred from this band-shaped foil onto the relevant banknote. Owing to this transfer carried out in the second method step, one integrated circuit in each case, is arranged in the aperture created in the banknotes.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of security inks suitable for printing security features on substrates, in particular on security documents or articles as well as security features made from said security inks, and security documents comprising a security feature made from said security inks. In particular, the invention provides UV-Vis radiation radically curable security inks comprising an ink vehicle and pigments comprising a flake-shaped non-metallic or metallic substrate comprising one or more at least partial coating layers, an at least partial surface treatment layer made of one or more surface modifiers selected from fluoro compounds.
