Preliminary Research On Thermal-rewrite Document

Thermal-Rewrite document is a type of document printed by ThermalRewrite technology which is a new development of Thermal-Write technology. This document is widely used in the commercial field or used to produce ID cards since this century, meanwhile it is also used fraudulently.Because in the beginning stage there are not enough Thermal-Rewrite document samples, research literatures on this field are scarce. Some researches simply discussed the Thermal-Rewrite technology, but not referring to the characteristic of Thermal-Rewrite document. Some repeatedly emphasized the Thermal-Write document, not analyzed the difference between the two types or pointed out the new advancement.The target of this article is to introduce the principle of Thermal-Rewrite technology comprehensively and to explain the concept, feature and examining technique of Thermal-Rewrite document preliminary. Meanwhile, this article is also willing to compare the Thermal-Rewrite document and other printed documents by feature comparison and experimental studies.The significance of this article is to sum up the Thermal-Rewrite technology and examining technique of Thermal-Write document which could help guiding research on Thermal-Rewrite document.This article contains four sections. Sectionâ… is to introduce Thermal-Write technology, Thermal-Rewrite technology and their facilities and printing mechanisms. This section also compared Thermal-Rewrite technology, Heat-Transfer technology and HeatSublimation technology. Sectionâ…¡is to analyze the mission and method of the examining technique of Thermal-Rewrite document. Section â…¢ is to describe and analyze the characteristics of Thermal-Rewrite document containing species characteristics and individual characteristics. This article display some graphs, pictures for empirical analysis. Section â…£ is to recommend applications to document examining.
