[Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a base film for magnetic cards, and more specifically, a base film for magnetic cards that can record optical signals as well as magnetic signals, and that can print clearly. It is related to. [Prior Art] Conventionally, in order to record two signals, a magnetic signal and an optical signal, a transparent base film was coated with a paint with low light transmittance and a magnetic agent was coated on top of the paint, or a dye-containing base film was coated on top of the paint. A magnetic card was formed by coating a film with a magnetic agent, and a magnetic signal was recorded on the surface coated with the magnetic agent, and an optical signal was recorded on the card itself by making small holes. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, such conventional base films for magnetic cards have the following drawbacks. That is, a base film coated with a paint having a low light transmittance has the disadvantage that when scratches occur on the coated surface, the light shielding property is reduced and an erroneous optical signal is detected. In addition, a step of applying a light shielding material is required in addition to the step of applying the magnetic agent, which is complicated and increases the processing cost. In addition, carbon black is generally used as a light shielding material, but when carbon black is used as a light shielding material, even if you try to print on a magnetic card, the base film itself is colored black, so you cannot print clearly. Couldn't get it to print. An object of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks of the prior art and provide a base film for magnetic cards that does not generate erroneous optical signals even if the surface is scratched and can print clearly. It is something. [Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has the following configuration, namely, a polyester film B mixed with carbon black and a polyester film B mixed with 0.5% by weight of titanium dioxide. The present invention is characterized by a base film for magnetic cards, characterized in that film A is laminated thereon. As the polyester applied to the present invention, polyethylene terephthalate (hereinafter referred to as "PET") or polyethylene-2,6-naphthalate is suitable. However, as long as the purpose of the present invention is not impaired, materials with bonds other than ester bonds or materials containing 30% by weight or less of other polymers can be used, and additives such as antistatic agents are also required. It can be added depending on the situation. Polyester film B mixed with carbon black of the present invention is a film made by mixing carbon black into the above polyester, and the amount of carbon black mixed in is 50% or less when the light transmittance of the film is set to 9000 Å wavelength of the light source. The amount is preferably 10% or less, more preferably 1% or less. Specifically, although it varies depending on the thickness of the polyester film B, the amount of carbon black mixed is usually 0.3% by weight or more, preferably 0.5% by weight or more and 10% by weight or less. It is preferable that this film B be oriented in the biaxial direction or in the longitudinal direction of the film, but it does not have to be oriented. Further, the polyester film A mixed with titanium dioxide of the present invention is a film obtained by stretching the above-mentioned polyester in at least one axis, preferably biaxially, and contains 0.5% by weight or more of titanium dioxide. is necessary. Although the upper limit of the amount of titanium dioxide mixed is not particularly limited, it is preferably 15% by weight or less, and the thickness of the film A is preferably 20 μm or more on one side. If the amount of titanium dioxide mixed is less than 0.5% by weight, the whiteness will be insufficient and the clarity of printing will be impaired. On the other hand, if it exceeds 15% by weight,
This is not preferred because the film's stretchability is impaired. If the film A is thinner than 20 μm on one side, the whiteness tends to be insufficient even if the amount of titanium dioxide mixed is 15% by weight, which is not preferable. Note that carbon black should not be mixed into the film B. This is because it inhibits the effect of mixing titanium dioxide. The method of laminating the films is most preferably laminated when both film A and film B are in a molten state, but there is no particular limitation, and any method for obtaining a normal laminated film may be used. It may be hot. The magnetic card base film laminated as described above is coated with a commonly used magnetic agent to form a magnetic card. In addition to magnetic signals, this magnetic card can also record optical signals by perforating small holes, and since the surface layer is white with titanium dioxide, it can be printed on one or both sides as needed. It can be printed to create a clear printed card. [Example] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on Examples. Example 1 PET mixed with 0.3% by weight of carbon black was used as the intermediate layer, and white PET layers mixed with 1% by weight of titanium dioxide were melted and laminated on both sides, biaxially stretched, and heat-set to produce a subway ticket magnetic card with a thickness of 250 μm. A base film was obtained. The thickness ratio is 75/100/75 (μ
m). Comparative Example 1 For comparison, a 250 μm thick single-layer white film containing 1% by weight of titanium dioxide was obtained. Comparative Example 2 For comparison, a 250 μm thick single-layer black film containing 0.3% by weight of carbon black was obtained. Comparative Example 3 In Example 1, the amount of titanium dioxide mixed was
0.3% by weight, otherwise the same as in Example 1,
A three-layer base film for magnetic cards was obtained. Example 2 In Example 1, the amount of titanium dioxide mixed was increased to 15
A three-layer magnetic card base film was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the weight percent and thickness ratio were 15/220/15 (μm). Example 3 In Example 1, the amount of titanium dioxide mixed was increased to 20
A three-layer magnetic card base film was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the weight percent and thickness ratio were 15/220/15 (μm). After printing on both sides of these films using a conventional method, a magnetic layer was stamped into a band shape and signal holes were formed to create a magnetic card, and its characteristics were evaluated. Table 1 shows the laminated state of each film, amount of titanium dioxide mixed, film light transmittance, stretchability, and magnetic card properties. As shown in Table 1, Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2,
It can be seen that Comparative Example 3 had poor signal trouble and poor printing quality, but Example 1 was superior in both. In addition, in Example 2, there was no signal trouble and the printing quality was good enough for practical use, but the printing clarity was slightly inferior. In addition, Example 3 was excellent in both signal trouble and printing quality, and fully satisfied the characteristics as a magnetic card. However, during film production, especially during biaxial stretching, film tearing occurred, and The drawback was that the productivity was slightly low.
