【発明の詳細な説明】
(産業上の利用分野)

とが出来る熱転写受像シートの提供を目的とする。Detailed Description of the Invention (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a thermal transfer image-receiving sheet useful in a thermal transfer method using a sublimable dye (thermally transferable dye), and more specifically, it is capable of high-speed recording and is fingerprint-resistant. The present invention aims to provide a thermal transfer image-receiving sheet capable of forming a high-density and high-resolution transferred image having excellent oil resistance such as plasticizer resistance and plasticizer resistance.

、カラー写真に匹敵するフルカラー画像を与えるものと

も優れている。(Prior art) Inkjet methods, thermal transfer methods, etc. have been developed as methods for providing excellent monochrome or full-color images easily and at high speed in place of conventional general printing methods. The most excellent method is the so-called sublimation thermal transfer method, which uses sublimable dyes, as it has excellent continuous gradation properties and provides full-color images comparable to color photographs.

たものが一般に用いられている。The thermal transfer sheet used in the above-mentioned sublimation type thermal transfer method has a dye layer containing sublimable dye formed on the side of the base film such as polyester film, and a dye layer containing a sublimable dye is formed on the side of the base film such as polyester film. A heat-resistant layer provided on the other side is generally used.

望の画像が形成される。The dye layer surface of such a thermal transfer sheet is placed on an image receiving sheet having an image receiving layer made of polyester resin or the like, and by heating the thermal transfer sheet in an imagewise manner from the back side with a thermal head, the dye in the dye layer is transferred to the image receiving sheet. A desired image is formed.

、それらの剥離時に染料層が剥離してそのまま受像シー
ト表面に転移するという問題が生じる。(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) The thermal transfer method described above has the excellent advantage of being able to create different shades of image depending on the temperature of the thermal head. When the temperature of the thermal head is raised, the binder forming the dye layer softens and sticks to the image receiving sheet, resulting in the inconvenience that the thermal transfer sheet and the image receiving sheet adhere to each other, and in more extreme cases, when they are separated, A problem arises in that the dye layer peels off and is directly transferred to the surface of the image-receiving sheet.
この様な問題を解決する方法としては、受像シートの染

ことが行われているが、受容層に十分な離型性を与える
為に比較的多量のシリコーンを添加すると、染料の受容
性が低下したり、受像シート及び画像が変色して保存性
が悪化すると云う問題が発生する。One way to solve this problem is to incorporate a release agent such as silicone oil into the dye-receiving layer of the image-receiving sheet. Addition of a large amount of silicone causes problems such as a decrease in dye receptivity, discoloration of the image-receiving sheet and images, and deterioration of storage stability.

けが発生し高濃度及び高解像度の画像が形成出来ないと
いう問題がある。Furthermore, it is possible to form the dye-receiving layer with a silicone acrylic resin that itself has mold release properties, but the receptive layer made of this resin lacks adhesion to the base film and dye receptivity, and is hard and difficult to cushion. As a result, white spots occur during printing, making it impossible to form high-density and high-resolution images.
又、従来の熱転写受像シートの場合には、形成される画

題が発生している。In addition, in the case of conventional thermal transfer image-receiving sheets, if a finger touches the formed image, or a plastic product containing a plasticizer or a plastic eraser comes into contact with it, fingerprints may appear or the dye may transfer to the plastic product, causing the image to disappear. Problems such as discoloration occur.
従って本発明の目的は、熱転写時に剥離性に優れ高速記
録が可能で且つ耐指紋性、耐可塑剤性等の耐油性に優れ
た高濃度及び高解像度の転写画像を形成することが出来
る熱転写受像シートを提供することである。Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a thermal transfer image receiving device that is capable of forming high-density and high-resolution transferred images that have excellent releasability during thermal transfer, enable high-speed recording, and have excellent oil resistance such as fingerprint resistance and plasticizer resistance. It is to provide sheets.
(問題点を解決する為の手段) 上記目的は以下の本発明によって達成される。(Means for solving problems) The above objects are achieved by the present invention as described below.

。That is, the present invention is a thermal transfer image-receiving sheet characterized in that a dye-receiving layer is provided on the surface of a base film, and the dye-receiving layer is made of an acrylic silicone urethane resin.

In this case, the adhesion of the dye-receiving layer to the base film can be improved while maintaining the above performance by using other dye-receiving resins and a silicone mold release agent. At this time, since the acrylic silicone urethane resin and the silicone mold release agent have a certain degree of compatibility, defects such as discoloration do not occur based on the silicone mold release agent.
