摘要

Disclosed is a protective layer thermal transfer film having excellent releasability wherein there is formed a protective layer which is excellent in aqueous ink fixing properties, solvent resistance, and especially in water resistance. Specifically disclosed is a protective layer thermal transfer film wherein at least a releasing layer and a protective layer are formed on one surface of a base film. This protective layer thermal transfer film is characterized in that the releasing layer is composed of at least a silicone-modified resin and a silicone oil.
