Among them, a sublimable dye is used as a recording agent, and this is carried on a base sheet such as paper or plastic film to form a thermal transfer sheet. Methods for forming various full-color images on paper or plastic film provided with a layer have been proposed. In this case, a thermal head of a printer is used as a heating means, and a large number of color dots of three or four colors are transferred to a thermal transfer image receiving sheet by heating for a very short time, and a full-color image of an original is formed by the multicolored dots. Is to reproduce.

することである。The image receiving sheet used in the above-mentioned thermal transfer method has a dye receiving layer made of a thermoplastic resin provided on the surface of a base sheet such as paper, synthetic paper, plastic sheet or the like. Therefore, the receiving layer has a high affinity for oily substances such as sebum, plasticizer, and solvent. Therefore, when a finger touches the receiving layer surface after image formation, a fingerprint remains, or when a soft vinyl chloride product such as an eraser or a telephone cord comes into contact, the dye forming the image is adversely affected, and the image quality is deteriorated. There's a problem. Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a thermal transfer image excellent in oil resistance such as fingerprint resistance and plasticizer resistance.
