PURPOSE:To obtain recorded matter having a high density medium yellow hue by low energy by adding a binder composed of a resin, a pyrazolone azo dye represented by a specific general formula and a pyridone azo dye represented by a specific general formula to the colorant layer provided on a base material. CONSTITUTION:A thermal transfer sheet is obtained by providing at least a colorant layer on a base material. In this case, a binder composed of a resin, a pyrazolone azo dye represented by first general formula (X is a hydroxy group or the like, Y is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group or the like, R is a hydrogen atom, a substituted or non-substituted alkyl group or the like and a ring A is a benzene ring which may have a nonionic substituent) and a pyridone azo dye represented by second general formula (R<1> is a hydrogen atom, a substituted or non-substituted alkyl group or the like, Z is a hydrogen atom or the like and a ring B is a benzene ring which may have a nonionic substituent) are added to the colorant layer. |
