THERMALLY TRANSFERABLE DYE IMAGE RECEIVING SHEET

摘要

PURPOSE:To eliminate curling of a sheet due to the heating, receive a thermally transferable dye image with high sensitivity and thereby receive a full-color image with high resolution by laminating a front film layer of specific thickness and density containing polyethylene terephthalate resin on the surface of a base and forming a dye-image receiving layer on the front film layer. CONSTITUTION:A front film 2 is laminated in one piece in the surface of a sheet-like base 1, and a dye image receiving layer 3 is formed on the front film layer 2. The sheet-like base 1 is 25 to 200mum with a density of more than 0.75 and less than 1.6. The sheet used as the front film layer 2 is made mainly of polyethylene terephthalate and 15 to 80mum thick with a density of less than 1.05 and more than 0.45. The receiving layer 3 should preferably be 1 to 20mum thick and is composed of synthetic resin material which can dye and fix a sublimable dispersant dye transferred from an ink sheet.
