The invention consists in a security paper, as well as the security document obtained with it and the manufacturing process thereof, that combines the security elements called windowed thread with the high contrast single-tone watermark technique. In order to carry out this invention, we make use of the recesses created to cover the thread in the areas where it is visible, which exhibit a greater accumulation of fibers and are therefore opaque areas in the final paper, to insert therein the electrotype or high contrast single-tone watermarks.

The invention relates to a security strip and security paper for obtaining security documents such as legal tender notes, checks or identification documents, comprising a cellulose support web that is completely embedded in a pulp substrate. As both the substrate and the support web are formed by plant fibers, a series of physical and chemical bonds are established between the fibers of both elements, the support web thus being perfectly integrated in the pulp. The cellulose support web will sometimes have a series of security elements, such as pigments, synthetic elements and/or security fibers of the type normally used in this type of application.

Abrégé

A security strip (1) consisting of sectors in which the background is non-continuous so that it is more difficult to duplicate by optical means than a continuous background, thereby making the strip harder to counterfeit. The non-continuous background consists of a dot pattern (2) printed using conventional printing techniques on an area (3) in which the repeated absence of dots defines a symbol (4), wherein the dots (2) of the pattern are geometrically and dimensionally distributed in such a way that they cannot be seen by the naked eye because the gap (3) between the dots cannot be discerned and the background appears to be continuous.

Abrégé

The invention relates to special or security paper comprising internal touch recognition elements, which is suitable for use as legal tender or for any other type of document requiring means for facilitating touch recognition or preventing counterfeiting. The invention comprises a sheet of paper (1) containing inserted expanding agents (2) which may be centred in relation to the thickness of the sheet of paper or positioned close to the upper face and/or lower face of the sheet (1), such as to form a figure or legend. According to the invention, pressure and heat are applied to the aforementioned expanding agents, either as the paper is being produced or during subsequent processes, thereby causing the sheet (1) to expand and forming a curved, continuous relief (3) on the surface of the document.

• D21H 27/40 - Papier particulier non prévu ailleurs, p.ex. obtenu par des procédés multi-étapes à plusieurs jets au moins une des feuilles n'étant pas plane, p.ex. crêpée
• B41M 3/16 - Impression en Braille

Abrégé

The invention relates to a security strip (1) and security paper (8) which are used to produce security documents, such as legal tender notes (9), cheques or identification documents, comprising a cellulose support band (2) which is fully embedded in a substrate (3) of paper pulp. Both the substrate (3) and the support band (2) are made from vegetable fibres (4) and, as such, a series of physicochemical bonds are made between the fibres (4) of both elements, such that the support (2) band is perfectly integrated in the paper pulp. Occasionally, the cellulose support band (2) comprises a series of security elements, such as pigments (5), synthetic elements (6) and/or security fibres (7) of the type normally used for said purpose.
