A method for producing a relief-like printed image on containers is described in which print layers are layered onto one another by way of jet application of a printing paint, an ink, a varnish, or an adhesive from at least one print head onto a container, thereby producing elevated regions of the printed image. Due to the fact that the print layers are each applied in full tone printing, optical and haptic effects can be created on container surfaces with low equipment complexity and a minimal number of printing steps.

Analyte sensors and methods for fabricating analyte sensors are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a method for fabricating a planar flexible analyte sensor includes sputtering platinum onto a polyester base layer to form a layer of platinum. The method includes patterning the layer of platinum to form working electrodes and additional electrodes. Further, the method includes forming an insulating dielectric layer over the base layer, wherein the insulating dielectric layer is formed with openings exposing portions of the working electrodes and portions of the additional electrodes. Also, the method includes partially singulating individual sensors from the base layer, wherein each individual sensor is connected to the base layer by a tab. The method further includes depositing an enzyme layer over the exposed portions of the working electrodes and coating the working electrodes with a glucose limiting membrane.

Provided is an object to be printed which can improve the quality of a printed image in inkjet printing on the object to be printed, regardless of the resolution of an inkjet image. In a method for producing an object to be printed having an area to be printed on a surface thereof, a surface of the area to be printed is adjusted so that the area to be printed has a surface energy E (mN/m) of 30 or more and 50 or less. The object to be printed is selected from a can and a film for containers.

A method for creating colorful patterns on a metal surface by using colorless ink is revealed. First carry out a first anodizing process on a metal substrate to form a first anodic oxide layer on a surface of the metal substrate. Then coat a layer of colorless ink on the first anodic oxide layer on the surface of the metal substrate to form a colorless ink pattern mask. Later perform a second anodizing process to form a second anodic oxide layer on a part of the metal substrate without being covered with the colorless ink pattern mask. Next remove the colorless ink pattern mask and coat a metal film over the first anodic oxide layer and the second anodic oxide layer to get a colorful pattern on the metal substrate.
