Image-receiving sheet for thermal transfer printing.

摘要

An image-receiving sheet for thermal transfer printing which comprises an intermediate layer and an image-receiving layer formed on a substrate in this order, characterized in that said intermediate layer comprises a lower layer containing hollow particles and an upper layer formed on said lower layer, and said image-receiving layer contains a dye-receptive resin. The image-receiving sheet is significantly improved in smoothness and blocking properties, enabling one to obtain print images of a very high quality, by thermal transfer printing, which are substantially free from the known problem relating to a missing transfer portion and which are high in optical density for images as printed.
