Image-receiving sheet for thermal transfer printing and printed material

摘要

An image-receiving sheet for thermal transfer printing comprises a substrate, a color receptor layer formed on one surface of the substrate, and a back surface layer formed on an other surface of the substrate. The back surface layer comprises thermoplastic resin and hydrophilic porous microsilica which is obtained by a wet process and has a pore volume of from 0.2 to 3.0 ml/g. It is possible to write with any kind of writing means on the back surface layer, and a stamp can be stuck thereon. When printing information is recorded on the color receptor layer of the image-receiving sheet for thermal transfer printing, the image-receiving sheet therefor is converted into a printed material which may be used as a picture postcard.
