Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
75 words
A leader of an information carrier web suitable for photoelectric control, comprising a polyester film oriented by biaxial stretching having a greater strength in the machine direction than in the transverse direction and being internally colored with an organic dye which is sufficiently heat-resistant and which has a sufficiently low light absorption said leader having one layer and a transparency of at least 60 percent when exposed to light of a wavelength of 750 nm.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
75 words
A leader of an information carrier web suitable for photoelectric control, comprising a polyester film oriented by biaxial stretching having a greater strength in the machine direction than in the transverse direction and being internally colored with an organic dye which is sufficiently heat-resistant and which has a sufficiently low light absorption said leader having one layer and a transparency of at least 60 percent when exposed to light of a wavelength of 750 nm.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
40 words
A leader according to claim 1 composed of a polyester film produced by extruding a polyester raw material containing a heat-resistant organic dye having a sufficiently low light absorption, quenching the preliminary film, biaxially stretching, and finally heat-setting the film.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
12 words
A leader according to claim 1 composed of a polyethylene terephthalate film.
