Abstract: A method of packaging physical objects in a container, and a container assembly so formed, advantageously utilize a container-sealer in the general form of a double faced label. The container sealer includes a flexible strip of material comprising a substrate having first and second faces, a permanent pressure sensitive adhesive with removal release liner on the first face, and a repositional adhesive on the second face. One or more physical objects are placed in the container through an openable/closeable portion of the container, at a first location the repositional adhesive of the container-sealer is placed into contact with a surface of the container and with a packing order indicating the desired contents of the container, and at a second location the container-sealer is removed from contact with the container and the packing order and the desired contents of the container are compared with the actual contents.

Abstract: An identification card assembly, made from an intermediate, comprises a carrier sheet with at least one ID card mounted on, and having smaller dimensions than, the carrier sheet. The ID card is connected to repositional adhesive, which in turn is connected through a tie coat to paper label stock, in turn connected by permanent adhesive to the paper carrier sheet. The assembly is constructed from an intermediate which includes a roll of release material on which are provided a number of spaced ID cards and associated adhesive. The carrier sheet is fed through a non-impact printer for variably imaging indicia on the top face of the ID card. A carrier sheet can be made into a mailer.

Abstract: A coating composition for use in carbonless copying systems including (1) a resin dispersion which is a phenol/aldehyde condensation product formed by the interaction of an alkyl-substituted salicylic acid, an alkyl-substituted phenol, an aldehyde and a metal source; (2) a binder; and (3) a pigment. This coating composition provides faster imaging in carbonless systems than conventional coatings, at temperatures below room temperature.

Abstract: A security composition for use with an ink composition including diphenyl guanidine and acrylic resin. The ink composition may further include a glycol ether and a plasticizer and can be printed on paper, for example in the word "VOID". If bleach is used to attempt to alter the document, the initially colorless ink will form a colored image in the shapes or letters printed on the paper. The ink composition is resistant to leaching upon contact with, for example, water.

Abstract: A document system having improved image security for preventing or reducing the likelihood of successful alteration of information printed on a document includes a detectable substance is released from ruptured microcapsules onto the document in image areas. The substance that penetrates through the document to form a confirming image on the reverse surface. Another detectable substance of lesser penetrating ability simultaneously may be released onto the document in the image areas. Spreading of the first substance outside the boundaries of the image area created by the second substance may produce a halo effect around the image area. Documents as treated by the methods are disclosed, as well as articles comprising a document to be treated in contact with a sheet coated with the detectable substance. The first substance is microencapsulated, the second substance may or may not be microencapsulated.

Abstract: A chromogenic mixture capable of forming a black image with zinc-modified phenolic resins is disclosed that includes an orange chromogen, a green or single component black chromogen and a blue, indigo or violet chromogen.
