Abstract
Abstract A process for coating or printing substrates with a coating or printing composition comprises applying a polymerizable material containing liquid-crystalline, polymerizable monomers which carry at least two polymerizable groups for coating and at least one polymerizable group for printing, to the substrate, and subsequently carrying out the polymerization, where the coating composition or the printing composition comprises a 1 ) a chiral liquid-crystalline monomer and b) a polymeric binder and/or monomeric compounds which can be converted into the polymeric binder by polymerization, or, in the case of emulsion coatings and printing inks, a dispersion auxiliary d), or the coating composition or the printing composition comprises a 2 ) an achiral liquid-crystalline monomer, b) a polymeric binder and/or monomeric compounds which can be converted into the polymeric binder by polymerization, or, in the case of emulsion coatings and printing inks, a dispersion auxiliary d), and c) a non-liquid-crystalline chiral compound.
