Payment card system and method |
摘要 |
Embodiments of the invention relate to payment cards and methods for making payment cards. In one embodiment, a card comprises a first layer and a second layer adjacent to the first layer. The second layer comprises a plurality of particles comprising metal, and the plurality of particles comprise at least about 15 volume % of the second layer. In another embodiment, a mixture is prepared comprising polymer and a plurality of particles comprising metal. The plurality of particles comprise at least about 15 volume % of the mixture. The mixture is pressed and an outer layer is applied. The mixture and outer layer are then cut to form the card. |

1. A card comprising:
a composite layer comprising a polymer and a plurality of particles, wherein each of the plurality of particles comprises:
a core comprising a metal; andan outer coating comprising an insulator, wherein the plurality of particles comprise at least about 15 volume % of the composite layer, and wherein the composite layer is less susceptible to electrostatic buildup than the metal. |
