In fact, while dyes and pigments are what give ink its physical color in most applications, in security applications, the same dyes and pigments can be formulated to be naked to the visible eye. Additionally, taggants \u2013 particles added to ink that are developed to react in proximity of a unique \u201creader\u201d or verifier \u2013 are typically microscopic in size.<\/p>\n<p>Because invisible ink, by design, does not have color, most applications of invisible security ink involve a taggant that reacts with a specially designed camera, light, or scanner. When implementing security ink, the taggant is developed to react only with proper equipment using a UV, infrared, or near-infrared light at a specific wavelength. While heat- and chemical-activating inks do exist, they are more popular in kids\u2019 science experiments than in enterprise applications.<\/p>\n<p>Just how specific is the scanner used? It depends on the level of security needed. In less secure applications, the ink reacts under a broad range of wavelengths. For example, ink on a concert ticket might fluoresce under <i>any<\/i> black light. In some high-security cases, the taggant reacts only under a light specifically calibrated for that ink.<\/p>\n<p>In short, the components in an invisible ink are all developed and mixed to create a fluid that is transparent to the naked eye, but reactive (and visible) under certain operating conditions.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">So Security ink doesn\u2019t have to be just invisible<\/h2>\n<h2>Creating security ink<\/h2>\n<p>To create a security ink for a custom application, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kaocollins.com\/\">ink manufacturers<\/a> must consider a variety of elements:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Substrate \u2013 What material will the ink be printed on? How can we ensure the ink adheres properly to the substrate?<\/li>\n<li>Operating conditions \u2013 Will the printed item be used once or many times?<\/li>\n<li>Visible properties \u2013 Does the ink need to be invisible to the naked eye?<\/li>\n<li>Detection mechanism \u2013 Is there specific equipment that will be used to validate authenticity (as in light-sensitive ink on a passport) or will it be validated by the naked eye (as in the watermark on a U.S. $20 bill)?<\/li>\n<li>Security level \u2013 Are there other security protocols being implemented for the application? Just <i>how<\/i> secure does this item need to be?<\/li>\n<li>Printing \u2013 What production speed needs to be maintained? What printing equipment or technology will be used?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These, and many other questions, lead ink manufacturers to develop an ink formulation that meets all of a customer\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the ink manufacturer isn\u2019t the only participant in these discussions. Companies looking for security solutions often have to work with a printer as well as the security company that provides the taggant and the machine people will use to confirm the authenticity of the ink.<\/p>\n<p>DNS company normally provided so many verity of security inks which some of them have been listed as follow:<\/p>\n<h2>Tamper Evident Inks<\/h2>\n<div class=\"column_content\">\n<p><strong>Solvent Sensitive Inks<\/strong><br \/>\nSolvent sensitive inks are most commonly used in cheque printing, and are designed to detect an attempt to fraudulently alter a document by smudging and fluorescing when subjected to specific solvents commonly used by fraudsters.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aqua Fugitive Inks<\/strong><br \/>\nAqua Fugitive inks are used in conjunction with solvent sensitive inks in cheque printing, and are designed to smudge when anybody attempts to remove ink using water.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Combined Solvent Sensitive Aqua Fugitive<\/strong><br \/>\nAs the name implies, this security ink is a combination of the above two inks, and performs both functions<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adhesion Promotion Varnish<\/strong><br \/>\nThis ink is only visible when viewed using an ultra violet light source. It promotes toner adhesion to the base paper, but also changes colour if a fraudster attempts to remove the toner by rubbing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"span_small_12 span_medium_6 span_large_4 span_wide_4 home_column \">\n<h2>Instant Verification Inks<\/h2>\n<div class=\"column_content\">\n<p><strong>Invisible UV Ink<\/strong><br \/>\nDesigns printed in invisible UV ink are only visible under a UV lamp and are used to authenticate a document. Under UV light the ink can fluoresce in a choice of colours depending on the ink chosen. We recommend that invisible UV inks are used in conjunction with a security background design to provide another level of protection.\u0003<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thermochromic Ink<\/strong><br \/>\nThermochromic inks (or heat reactive inks) react to change colour or disappear when subjected to heat, and are ideal for providing instant verification for documents such as cheques, vouchers or certificates. They are available in a range of colours, and can be formulated to react at different temperatures for use in hotter climates.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Coin Reactive Ink<\/strong><br \/>\nThese inks become visible only when rubbed with a coin to reveal a hidden message, such as \u2018VALID\u2019. They can be particularly useful when documents are required to be validated in the field, where access to ultra violet lamps is limited.<\/p>\n<h3>Scope of Security Inks Products<\/h3>\n<p>We offer a wide range of security inks which can solve many document fraud and counterfeit issues. Often security features of inks can be combined to increase the security level and\/or make printing of secure documents more economical. Here is a list of some of the security inks we can provide:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Watermarking Ink overview<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"hs_cos_wrapper hs_cos_wrapper_widget_container hs_cos_wrapper_type_widget_container\" data-hs-cos-general-type=\"widget_container\" data-hs-cos-type=\"widget_container\">Watermarking Ink is security ink to mark documents with watermark (optional with UV fluorescent security feature). This feature cannot be copied and is very easy to verify. Suitable to protect all documents against counterfeiting.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Numbering inks<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"hs_cos_wrapper hs_cos_wrapper_widget_container hs_cos_wrapper_type_widget_container\" data-hs-cos-general-type=\"widget_container\" data-hs-cos-type=\"widget_container\">Black penetrating red or black UV fluorescent.

However, when a filter (a coloured piece of plastic) is placed over the print, one ink disappears while the other appears darker. This allows for hidden words or images to become apparent and thus identify the document as genuine.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Magnetic inks<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"hs_cos_wrapper hs_cos_wrapper_widget_container hs_cos_wrapper_type_widget_container\" data-hs-cos-general-type=\"widget_container\" data-hs-cos-type=\"widget_container\">MICR inks are suitable for most magnetic character recognition applications.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Iridescent inks<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"hs_cos_wrapper hs_cos_wrapper_widget_container hs_cos_wrapper_type_widget_container\" data-hs-cos-general-type=\"widget_container\" data-hs-cos-type=\"widget_container\">Ink appears transparent when viewed at zero degree, and changes to a color shade when viewed at an angle.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Custom formulated security inks<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"span_small_12 span_medium_12 span_large_4 span_wide_4 home_column first_home_column\">\n<h2>Security Inks<\/h2>\n<div class=\"column_content\">\n<p>A wide variety of security inks are available to use in conjunction with good security design to authenticate your document.
