Description
【発明の詳細な説明】 ［産業上の利用分野］ 本発明は、昇華型熱転写用受像媒体に関する。[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to an image receiving medium for sublimation type thermal transfer.
［従来の技術］
熱昇華性染料を含有した転写層を有する熱転写記録媒体

料を受容する受像媒体とを用いる昇華型熱転写記録方式

カラーハードコピーを提供するものとして、近年注目さ
れている。[Prior Art] A sublimation type thermal transfer recording method using a thermal transfer recording medium having a transfer layer containing a thermally sublimable dye and an image receiving medium receiving the dye sublimated by thermal printing from the back side of the recording medium is an excellent method. It has been attracting attention in recent years as it is capable of recording halftones and provides full-color hard copies that are similar to color photographs.
従来、この記録方式で用いられる受像媒体としては、熱
昇華性染料に対して強い染着性を示す熱可塑性のポリエ
ステル樹脂等と離型剤からなる染料受容層を基体（合成
紙等）上に形成されたものが用いられている。Conventionally, the image-receiving medium used in this recording method consists of a dye-receiving layer made of a thermoplastic polyester resin, etc., which exhibits strong dyeability against heat-sublimable dyes, and a release agent, on a substrate (synthetic paper, etc.). The formed one is used.
［発明が解決しようとする課題］
しかしながら従来の受像媒体は耐熱性が必ずしも充分で
ないため、記録後の画像記録部、とりわけ印加エネルギ
ーの高い高画像濃度部の染料受容層表面の平面性が低下
する。このため受容層表面における光の散乱（表皮拡散
）が増大し、画像の鮮明性が低下するという欠点を有し
ている。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, conventional image-receiving media do not necessarily have sufficient heat resistance, so the surface flatness of the dye-receiving layer deteriorates in the image-recording area after recording, especially in the high-image-density area where the applied energy is high. . This has the disadvantage that light scattering (epidermal diffusion) on the surface of the receptor layer increases and the clarity of the image decreases.
受容層表面における光の散乱が少ない程、画像が鮮明で
、又、反射型の受像媒体においては光の散乱が少ない程
高い画像濃度となる。The less scattering of light on the surface of the receptor layer, the clearer the image, and in the case of a reflective image receiving medium, the lower the scattering of light, the higher the image density.
本発明の目的は記録後の受容層表面の平滑性の低下を防
止し、鮮明で高い画像濃度の得られる受像媒体を提供す
ることにある。An object of the present invention is to provide an image-receiving medium that prevents deterioration of the surface smoothness of the receptor layer after recording and provides a clear and high image density.

の点で困難である。そこで更に検討を行い本発明に至っ
た。[Means for Solving the Problems] As a result of intensive studies, the present inventors found that in order to prevent the flatness of the surface of the receptor layer from decreasing, it is not enough to improve the heat resistance of the receptor layer itself; Although it was discovered that heat resistance is necessary, it is difficult to use a substrate with high heat resistance due to cost and other considerations. Therefore, we conducted further studies and arrived at the present invention.

華型熱転写用受像媒体が提供される。According to the present invention, a layer mainly composed of a reaction cured product of a vinyl polymer containing a basic nitrogen atom and a compound having both an epoxy group and a hydrolyzable silyl group in one molecule and a dye-receiving layer are disposed on a substrate. An image receiving medium for sublimation type thermal transfer is provided, which is characterized by being formed by sequentially laminating layers.
本発明の具体的構成及び作用は、以下のとおりである。The specific structure and operation of the present invention are as follows.

料受容層Ｂをその順に積層した構成となっている。In FIG. 1, the image-receiving medium of the present invention is comprised of an image-receiving substrate A, a dye-receiving layer B, and an intermediate layer C. That is,
The image-receiving medium of the present invention has as its main component a reaction cured product of a vinyl polymer containing a basic nitrogen atom and a compound having both an epoxy group and a hydrolyzable silyl group in one molecule, on an image-receiving substrate A. It has a structure in which an intermediate layer C and a dye-receiving layer B capable of being dyed with a heat sublimable dye are laminated in this order.
又、１はサーマルヘッドを示し、昇華転写記録媒体は耐
熱層２、転写基体３及び染料転写層４から構成されてい

した染料は受像媒体の染料受容層Ｂに転移する。受像媒
体へ移った昇華染料は、染料受容層Ｂを形成する染料染
着性樹脂中を拡散し、染着する。By heating from the thermal head 1, the heat sublimable dye is sublimated and diffused from the dye transfer layer 4 of the sublimation transfer recording medium, and the sublimated dye is transferred to the dye receiving layer B of the image receiving medium. The sublimation dye transferred to the image-receiving medium diffuses into the dye-staining resin forming the dye-receiving layer B and dyes the medium.

抑制される。As described above, in conventional image-receiving media, the sharpness of the image decreases after recording due to a decrease in the flatness of the surface of the receptor layer, and the mechanism is thought to be as follows. That is, during recording, the dye-receiving layer is deformed by the uneven surface of the thermal head, but at the same time, the underlying substrate with low heat resistance is plastically deformed, and the deformation is set as the temperature decreases.
The flatness of the receptor layer surface decreases. However, in the image-receiving medium of the present invention, since the intermediate layer C containing the above-mentioned reaction cured product as a main component is provided between the substrate A and the dye-receiving layer B, the substrate itself is damaged by heating during recording. Since there is no plastic deformation, deterioration in flatness of the surface of the receptor layer is suppressed.

［発明の効果］
以上説明したように、本発明の昇華型熱転写用受像媒体
は、基体よりも高い耐熱性を有する中間層を設けたこと
から、記録後の染料受容層表面の平面性の低下が抑制さ
れるため、鮮明で高画像濃度の画像が得られる。また、
記録後の受像媒体のカールが小さいという利点も有して
いる。[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, since the image-receiving medium for sublimation thermal transfer of the present invention is provided with an intermediate layer having higher heat resistance than the substrate, the flatness of the surface of the dye-receiving layer after recording is reduced. Since the image quality is suppressed, a clear image with high image density can be obtained. Also,
Another advantage is that the curl of the image receiving medium after recording is small.
