  • Publication number: 20080317979
    Abstract: The laser-transmissive welding label of the present invention is a resin label which comprises at least a resin layer and is affixable to a resin shaped article by a laser welding, wherein the resin layer has a light-scattering property, and the transmittance of the resin layer relative to a laser beam having an oscillation wavelength within the range of 740 to 1100 nm is not less than 20%, and the total light transmittance of the resin layer relative to a visible light (in accordance with ASTM D1003) is not more than 50%. The resin layer may comprise a thermoplastic resin which may have a compatibility with a resin for the resin shaped article. The label may be able to mask the resin shaped article, or may be colored with a coloring agent. A shaped composite article (e.g., a toner cartridge) may be formed by bonding the label to the resin shaped article with use of the laser welding.
