Abstract
The present invention is directed to a printed substrate including a multilayer film having the following layered configuration: a print layer having a thickness of at least about 0.6 mils, which is receptive to eco-solvent inks, mild-solvent inks, latex inks, UV inks, or combinations thereof, and where the print layer includes one or more of eco-solvent inks, mild-solvent inks, latex inks, UV inks, or combinations thereof; a tie layer; a core layer; and an adhesive layer.
Claims64
A printed substrate comprising:
- a coextruded multilayer film having the following layered configuration:
- a print layer having a thickness of at least about 0.6 mils, which is receptive to eco-solvent inks, mild-solvent inks, latex inks, UV inks, or combinations thereof, wherein the print layer comprises one or more of eco-solvent inks, mild-solvent inks, latex inks, UV inks, or combinations thereof,
- a tie layer,
- a core layer, and
- an adhesive layer, wherein the tie layer is placed between the print layer and the core layer, and wherein the adhesive layer is applied to the core layer opposite to the tie layer wherein the print layer comprises a first print layer comprising polyurethane and a second print layer comprising polyurethane and absorbing particles.
A method of forming a coextruded multilayer film, the method comprising:
- coextruding layers of film forming materials to form the multilayer film having the following layered configuration:
- a print layer having a thickness of at least about 0.6 mils, which is receptive to eco-solvent inks, mild-solvent inks, latex inks, UV inks, or combinations thereof,
- a tie layer,
- a core layer, and
- an adhesive layer, wherein the tie layer is placed between the print layer and the core layer, and wherein the adhesive layer is applied to the core layer opposite to the tie layer wherein the print layer comprises a first print layer comprising polyurethane and a second print layer comprising polyurethane and absorbing particles.
A method of forming a printed substrate, the method comprising:
- providing a coextruded multilayer film having the following layered configuration:
- a print layer having a thickness of at least 0.6 mils, which is receptive to eco-solvent inks, mild-solvent inks, latex inks, UV inks, or combinations thereof,
- a tie layer,
- a core layer, and
- an adhesive layer;
- and
- applying one or more of eco-solvent inks, mild-solvent inks, latex inks, UV inks, or combinations thereof, wherein the tie layer is placed between the print layer and the core layer, and wherein the adhesive layer is applied to the core layer opposite to the tie layer wherein the print layer comprises a first print layer comprising polyurethane and a second print layer comprising polyurethane and absorbing particles.
A coextruded multilayer film receptive to inkjet inks, the multilayer film comprising:
- a print layer having a thickness of at least about 0.6 mils, which is receptive to eco-solvent inks, mild-solvent inks, latex inks, UV inks, or combinations thereof, wherein the print layer comprises one or more of eco-solvent inks, mild-solvent inks, latex inks, UV inks, or combinations thereof;
- a tie layer;
- a core layer comprising a flame retardant;
- and
- an adhesive layer, the tie layer is placed between the print layer and the core layer and wherein the adhesive layer is applied to the core layer opposite to the tie layer wherein the print layer comprises a first print layer comprising polyurethane and a second print layer comprising polyurethane and absorbing particles.
A coextruded multilayer film receptive to inkjet inks, the multilayer film comprising:
- a print layer comprising a coefficient of friction lowering agent, the print layer having a thickness of at least about 0.6 mils, which is receptive to eco-solvent inks, mild-solvent inks, latex inks, UV inks, or combinations thereof, wherein the print layer comprises one or more of eco-solvent inks, mild-solvent inks, latex inks, UV inks, or combinations thereof;
- a tie layer;
- a core layer;
- and
- an adhesive layer, wherein the tie layer is placed between the print layer and the core layer, and wherein the adhesive layer is applied to the core layer opposite to the tie layer wherein the print layer comprises a first print layer comprising polyurethane and a second print layer comprising polyurethane and absorbing particles.
