The compositions of the present invention may be used in coatings, or printing inks, which are described for example, in WO2020/224982. The suitability of dithiocarbamate capped silver nanoplatelets for use in security inks for producing security features for securing value documents, which exhibit a first color upon viewing in transmitted light and a second color different from the first color upon viewing in incident light is described in two European patent applications both entitled "UV-VIS radiation curable security inks for producing dichroic security features" filed by SICPA HOLDING SA on November 10, 2020. Part of the European patent applications of SICPA HOLDING SA is outlined below in excerpts for reference purpose only. The 1 ^st European patent application of SICPA HOLDING SA describes UV-VIS radiation curable security inks, wherein said inks comprise: a) from about 7.5 wt-% to about 20 wt-% of silver nanoplatelets having a mean diameter in the range of 50 to 150 nm with a standard deviation of less than 60%, a mean thickness in the range of 5 to 30 nm with a standard deviation of less than 50%, and a mean aspect ratio higher than 2.0, wherein the mean diameter is determined by transmission electron microscopy and the mean thickness is determined by transmission electron microscopy, and wherein the silver nanoplatelets bear a surface stabilizing agent of general formula (XXI), wherein the residue R ⁴¹ is a C ₂ -C ₄ alkyl group substituted with a hydroxy group; the residue R ⁴² is selected from a C1-C4 alkyl group, and a C ₂ -C ₄ alkyl group substituted with a hydroxy group; and Cat ^k+ is a cation selected from the group consisting of Na ⁺ , K ⁺ , Rb ⁺ and Cs ⁺ ; b) a perfluoropolyether surfactant functionalized with at least a hydroxy group; c) from about 3 wt-% to about 12 wt-% of a polyvinyl chloride copolymer containing at least 69 wt-% of vinyl chloride; d) d1) from about 25 wt-% to about 55 wt-% of a cycloaliphatic epoxide, and from about 1 wt-% to about 10 wt-% of a cationic photoinitiator; or d2) from about 30 wt-% to about 65 wt-% of a mixture of a cycloaliphatic epoxide and a radically curable compound, from about 1 wt-% to about 6 wt-% of a cationic photoinitiator, and from about 1 wt-% to about 6 wt-% of a free radical photoinitiator; and optionally e) a cationically curable compound selected from the group consisting of: e1) a vinyl ether having two vinyloxy residues in an amount lower than 50% of the weight percent (wt-%) of the cycloaliphatic epoxide of d); e2) a vinyl ether having one vinyloxy residue in an amount lower than about 5 wt-%; e3) an epoxide other than a cycloaliphatic epoxide in an amount lower than about 10 wt-%; e4) an oxetane having two oxetanyl residues in an amount lower than about 20 wt-%; e5) an oxetane having one oxetanyl residue in an amount lower than about 3.5 wt-%; and e6) a mixture of e1) and/or e2) and/or e3) and/or e4) and/or e5); the weight percents being based on the total weight of the UV-Vis radiation curable security ink; and a process for producing a security feature for securing a value document, wherein said security feature exhibits a blue color upon viewing in transmitted light and a metallic yellow color upon viewing in incident light, said process comprising the following steps: A) printing, preferably by screen printing, rotogravure, or flexography, the UV-Vis radiation curable security ink claimed and described herein on a transparent or partially transparent region of a substrate of a value document to provide an ink layer; and B) UV-Vis curing the ink layer obtained at step A) to form the security feature. The combination of the ditiocarbamate capped silver nanoplatelets of the present invention and the specific ink vehicle described in the European patent application of SICPA HOLDING SA allows expedient migration of the silver nanoplatelets contained in an ink layer obtained by printing the security ink from the mass of the ink layer at the interface between the ink layer and air and at the interface between the ink layer and the substrate and alignment at said interfaces to form thin reflective layers, thereby producing independently of the thickness of the printed ink layer the metallic yellow color in reflection and the blue color in transmission. The expedient development of the metallic yellow color in reflection and of the blue color in transmission cannot be achieved with the inks descried in the prior art. The cationically curable binder or hybrid curable binder contained by the UV- Vis radiation curable security ink provides the dichroic security feature obtained from said ink with a high mechanical resistance.

Further details of the security inks are described in the two European patent applications of SICPA HOLDING SA. The following examples are intended to illustrate various aspects and features of the present invention. Examples UV-Vis spectra of dispersions were recorded on Varian Cary 50 UV-Visible spectrophotometer at such concentration of dispersions as to achieve the optical density of 0.3 to 1.5 at 1 cm optical path. TEM analysis was conducted on dispersions containing silver nanoplatelets in isopropanol using an EM 910 instrument from ZEISS, INST.109, in bright field mode at an e-beam acceleration voltage of 100kV. At least 2 representative images with scale in different magnification (5.000x, 10.000X and 20.000X) were recorded in order to characterize the dominant particle morphology for each sample. The “number mean diameter of the silver nanoplatelets” refers to the mean diameter determined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using Fiji image analysis software (or Image analysis software: ParticleSizer (Thorsten Wagner (2016) ij-particlesizer: ParticleSizer 1.0.9. Zenodo; 10.5281/zenodo.820296) and ImageJ version 1.53f51) based on the measurement of at least 300, especially at least 500 randomly selected silver nanoplatelets oriented parallel to the plane of a transmission electron microscopy image (TEM), wherein the diameter of a silver nanoplatelet is the maximum dimension of said silver nanoplatelet (maximal Feret diameter) oriented parallel to the plane of a transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image (recorded at magnification 20.000X). The "number mean thickness of silver nanoplatelets” refers to the mean thickness determined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) based on the measurement of at least 50, especially of at least 300 randomly selected silver nanoplatelets oriented perpendicular to the plane of the TEM image (recorded at magnification 25.000X), wherein the thickness of the silver nanoplatelet is the maximum thickness of said silver nanoplatelet. TEM analysis was conducted on dispersions containing silver nanoplatelets in isopropanol using an EM 910 instrument from ZEISS, INST.109, in bright field mode at an e-beam acceleration voltage of 100kV. In detail, a part of the dispersion is transferred to a smooth foil. After drying the sample is embedded in Araldit®, which is cross-linked below 60°C. Ultrathin cross-sections of the embedded sample are prepared perpendicular to the foil surface. The thickness of at least 300 randomly selected silver nanoplatelets may be determined from the cross-sectional TEM images (recorded at magnification 25.000X) by fitting ellipses to the cross-sectioned particles by the software (ParticleSizer). The minor axis (the shortest diameter) of the fitted ellipse is taken as particle thickness. Synthesis Example 1 (see Example 1 of WO2020/224982) a) In a 1 L double-wall glass reactor, equipped with anchor-stirrer, 365 g of de-ionized water was cooled to +2°C.13.62 g of sodium borohydride was added, and the mixture was cooled to -1°C with stirring at 250 rounds per minute (RPM, Solution A). In a 0.5 L double-wall glass reactor, equipped with anchor-stirrer, 132 g of deionized water and 4.8 g of MPEG-5000-thiol were combined, and the mixture was stirred for 10 minutes at room temperature.72 g of the product of Example A3 of WO2006074969 was added, and the resulting mixture was stirred for another 10 minutes at room temperature for homogenization. The solution of 30.6 g of silver nitrate in 30 g of de-ionized water was added in one portion and the mixture was stirred for 10 minutes, resulting in an orange- brown viscous solution. To this solution 96 g of deionized water was added, followed by addition of 3 g of Struktol SB2080 defoamer, pre-dispersed in 36 g of de-ionized water. The resulting mixture was cooled to 0°C with stirring at 250 RPM (Solution B). After that, Solution B was dosed with a peristaltic pump at a constant rate over 2 h into Solution A under the liquid surface via a cooled (0°C) dosing tube, resulting in spherical silver nanoplatelets dispersion. During pumping, the Solution A was stirred at 250 RPM. After dosing was complete, the reaction mixture was warmed up to +5°C within 15 minutes, and a solution of 862 mg of KCl in 10 g of deionized water was added in one portion, followed by addition of 9.6 g of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) in 4 equal portions with 10 minutes time intervals. After addition of the last EDTA portion, the reaction mixture was stirred for 15 minutes at +5°C, then warmed up to 35°C over 30 minutes and stirred for 1 h at this temperature. Upon this time, hydrogen evolution is completed. 3.0 mL of 30% w/w solution of ammonia in water was added, followed by addition of 5.76 g of solid NaOH, and the mixture was stirred for 15 min at 35°C. Then 180 mL of 50% w/w hydrogen peroxide solution in water were dosed with a peristaltic pump at a constant rate over 4 h into the reaction mixture under the liquid surface with stirring at 250 RPM, while maintaining the temperature at 35°C. This has led to a deep blue colored dispersion of silver nanoplatelets, which was cooled to room temperature.1.23 g of compound of formula (B-3) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 1 h at room temperature. b) Isolation and purification of Ag nanoplatelets b1) Decantation 9.6 g of sodium dodecylsulfate was added to the reaction mixture and then ca.25 g of anhydrous sodium sulfate powder was added in portions with stirring until the transmission color of the dispersion changed from blue to pink. Then the mixture was kept without stirring at room temperature for 24 h, allowing the coagulated nanoplatelets to sediment at the bottom of the reactor. 890 g of supernatant was pumped out from the reactor with a peristaltic pump, and 890 g of deionized water was added to the reactor. The mixture in reactor was stirred for 1 h at room temperature, allowing the coagulated particles to re-disperse. b2) Decantation Ca.64 g of anhydrous sodium sulfate powder was added in portions with stirring until the transmission color of the dispersion changed from blue to yellowish-pink. Then the mixture was kept without stirring at room temperature for 12 h, allowing the coagulated nanoplatelets to sediment at the bottom of the reactor.990 g of supernatant was pumped out from the reactor with a peristaltic pump, and 90 g of deionized water was added to the reactor. The resulting mixture was stirred for 30 minutes at room temperature, allowing the coagulated particles to re-disperse. b3) Ultrafiltration in water The resulting dispersion of Ag nanoplatelets was subjected to ultrafiltration using a Millipore Amicon 8400 stirred ultrafiltration cell. The dispersion was diluted to 400 g weight with de- ionized water and ultrafiltered to the end volume of ca.50 mL using a polyethersulfone (PES) membrane with 300 kDa cut-off value. The procedure was repeated in total 4 times to provide 60 g of Ag nanoplatelets dispersion in water. After ultrafiltration was completed, 0.17 g of compound (B-3) was added to the dispersion. Ag content 28.9% w/w; yield ca.89% based on total silver amount; Solids content (at 250°C) 33.5% w/w; Purity 86% w/w of silver based on solids content at 250°C. b4) Ultrafiltration in isopropanol The dispersion was further ultrafiltered in isopropanol.60 g of Ag nanoplatelets dispersion, obtained after ultrafiltration in water, was placed in a Millipore Amicon 8400 stirred ultrafiltration cell and diluted to 300 g weight with isopropanol. The dispersion was ultrafiltered to the volume of ca.50 mL using a polyethersulfone (PES) membrane with 500 kDa cut-off value. The procedure was repeated in total 4 times to provide 72 g of Ag nanoplatelets dispersion in isopropanol. Ag content 24.1% w/w; Solids content (at 250°C) 25.7% w/w; Purity 93.5% w/w of silver based on solids content at 250°C.

Preparation of security inks (E1 – E8) and dichroic security features thereof C1a. Preparation of the security inks E1 – E8 Ingredients provided in Table 1b were independently mixed and dispersed at room temperature using a Dispermat CV-3 for 10 minutes at 2000 rpm so as to yield 50g of the inks E1 – E8. C1b. Preparation of security features The UV-Vis radiation curable screen printing hybrid security inks E1 – E8 were independently applied on pieces of transparent polymer substrate (PET Hostaphan® RN, thickness 50µm, supplied by Pütz GmbH + Co. Folien KG) using a 160 thread/cm screen (405 mesh). The printed pattern had a size of 5 cm x 5 cm. 10 seconds after the printing step, the pieces of printed substrate were independently cured at room temperature by exposing them two times at a speed of 100 m/min to UV-Vis light under a dryer from IST Metz GmbH (two lamps: iron-doped mercury lamp 200 W/cm ² + mercury lamp 200 W/cm ² ), to generate security features. C1c. Results (optical properties) of security features The optical properties of each security features obtained at item C1b were independently assessed in reflection, in transmission, and visually using the three tests described below. The results are summarized in Table 1c. Reflection measurements were performed using a goniometer (Goniospektrometer Codec WI-105&5 by Phyma GmbH Austria). The L*a*b* values of the printed security features were determined at 0° to the normal with an illumination angle of 22.5° on the side of the transparent polymer substrate that was printed. The C* values (chroma, corresponding to a measure of the color intensity or color saturation) were calculated from a* and b* values according to the CIELAB (1976) color space, wherein: The C* values (reflection 22.5/0°) are displayed in Table 1c below. Transmission measurements were carried out using a Datacolor 650 spectrophotometer (parameters: integration sphere, diffuse illumination (pulse xenon D65) and 8° viewing, analyzer SP2000 with dual 256 diode array for wavelength range of 360-700nm, transmission sampling aperture size of 22mm). The C* values (transmission 8°) are displayed in Table 1c below. A visual assessment was carried out observing each security feature with the naked eye in reflection with a diffuse source (such as the light coming through a window without direct sun, the observer facing ^{the wall opposite to the window). The following colors have been observed:} - Dark brown to brown colors with matte appearance and no metallic effect; - Gold color (i.e. metallic yellow color) with glossy appearance and metallic effect. The metallic effect appears for a chroma value C* in reflection 22.5/0° higher than about 20. A visual assessment was also carried out observing each security feature with the naked eye in transmission. The following colors have been observed: - Dull blue: the blue coloration is weak (but visible); - Blue (chroma value C* in transmission 8° higher than or equal to about 20) to deep blue (chroma value C* in transmission 8° higher than or equal to 30): the blue coloration is intense to very intense. Table 1c. Color properties of security features obtained from inks E1 – E8 As shown in Table 1c, the security features obtained from cationically curable or hybrid (cat/rad) inks E1 – E8 exhibited gold color in reflection and blue to deep blue color in transmission. C1d. Study of the stability of the UV-Vis radiation curable security ink E7 via an accelerated ageing experiment To evaluate the stability upon time of an ink according to the invention, 10 g of ink E7 (described in Table 1b) were placed in a cup (60 ml white polypropylene cup for SpeedMixer™ available at Hauschild & Co. KG), which was hermetically sealed and stored for five months at a temperature of 60 °C in a laboratory oven (Kendro Laboratory Products, T6060). The freshly prepared ink E7 was ^{used as a comparison standard. Each month, the sample of ink E7 stored in the oven was cooled at} room temperature for 6 hours, and subsequently applied on a piece of transparent polymer substrate (PET Hostaphan® RN, thickness 50µm, supplied by Pütz GmbH + Co. Folien KG) using a 160 thread/cm screen (405 mesh). The printed pattern had a size of 5 cm x 5 cm. 10 seconds after the printing step, the piece of printed substrate was cured at room temperature by two times exposure at a speed of 100 m/min to UV-Vis light under a dryer from IST Metz GmbH (two lamps: iron-doped mercury lamp 200 W/cm ² + mercury lamp 200 W/cm ² ), to generate a security feature. The optical properties of the security feature obtained each month were independently assessed in reflection, and visually using the tests described at item C1c. Table 1d summarizes the color in reflection and transmission and the C* values (reflection 22.5/0°) exhibited by the security features. Table 1d. Color properties of security features a) the security feature was manufactured with the freshly prepared ink E7 according to the present invention. As attested by the optical properties of security features shown in Table 1d, the ink E7 remains stable over an extended period of time at high temperature, which is an indication of outstanding shelf stability at room temperature.
