Zusammenfassung:A printed packaging material and a method for making the same is described. On a primary surface of a thermoplastic flexible packaging material is disposed a printed image. That image includes two primary components. The first is at least one marking containing a pigment. The second is a pigment-free coating which overlies the outermost marking. The coating is made from materials whi ch can polymerize and/or crosslink when exposed to ionizing radiation. After th e film is exposed to such radiation, the coating hardens to form a protective layer over the printed markings.
