Image-receiving sheet for a sublimation-type heat-sensitive transfer recording process.

摘要

The present invention relates to an image-receiving sheet for a sublimation-type heat-sensitive process. The purpose of the present invention is to improve eliminate disturbances in the recording image quality resulting from poor surface smoothness of the dye-receiving layer, in addition to improving the sensitivity of the image-receiving sheet. In order to achieve this objective, the image-receiving sheet for use in a sublimation-type heat-sensitive transfer recording process according to the present invention incorporates a high polymer layer in between the substrate and dye-receiving layers. Furthermore, the dye-receiving layer of the image-receiving sheet according to the present invention, possesses a surface roughness degree defined by a center line average roughness (Ra) of 0.3 mu m or less, and a maximum height (Rmax) of 5 mu m or less.
