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 method is disclosed for coating sheet-like supports by applying curable organopolysiloxanes, which have been modified with (meth)-acrylate ester groups, on the surface of the support and curing the modified organopolysiloxanes by the action of polymerizing high-energy radiation. Polysiloxanes with hydroxy-functional groups are employed for this purpose, which are obtained by reaction with, based on the hydroxyl groups, 0.4 to 0.9 molar amounts of (meth)acrylic acid and up to 0.6 molar amounts of monocarboxylic acids, which are free of double bonds (sum of the acids.ltoreq.1 molar).
