A polyester laminate for an identification document is formed from
different polyester materials. One of the polyester materials, such as
PCTA, provides a durability property. Another of the polyester materials,
such as PETG, provides a layer having a surface with a bonding property
for bonding directly to a core without adhesive. The polyester material
with the bonding property is selected to enable direct bonding to a
printed core layer of TESLIN or polyester through a roll to roll or
platen press process.
