層には離型剤が添加混合されている。[Prior Art] Various thermal transfer methods are conventionally known, and among them, a dye-receiving method uses a sublimable dye as a recording agent, supports it on a base sheet such as paper or plastic film, and forms a thermal transfer sheet. Various methods have been proposed for forming full-color images on layered paper or plastic films. In this case, the printer's thermal head is used as a heating means, and a large number of three or four color dots are transferred to the thermal transfer image receiving sheet by extremely short heating, and the multicolor dots create a full-color image of the original. It is intended to reproduce. The images formed in this way are very clear because the coloring material used is dye, and they have excellent transparency, so the images obtained have excellent intermediate color reproducibility and gradation, and are It is possible to form high-quality images that are similar to images produced by offset printing or gravure printing, and comparable to full-color photographic images. However, image-receiving sheets on which images can be formed using the above method are limited to dye-dyeable plastic sheets or paper on which a dye-receiving layer has been provided in advance, and images cannot be directly formed on general plain paper. There is a problem. Of course, even if you use ordinary plain paper, if you form a receptive layer on its surface,
Although image formation is possible, it is generally expensive and difficult to apply to common ready-made recording papers such as postcards, memos, stationery, report paper, etc. To solve these problems, a receptor layer transfer sheet is known as a method to easily form a dye receptor layer only in the necessary areas when trying to form an image on a ready-made product such as plain paper. (For example, see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 62-264994). In the case of the above-described receptor layer transfer sheet, an adhesive layer is formed on the surface of the receptor layer in order to improve the transferability of the receptor layer, and after the receptor layer is transferred to the image-receiving sheet, the thermal transfer sheet and the receptor layer are used during image formation. A release agent is added to the receiving layer in order to improve the releasability from the layer.

生じない受容層転写シートの提供を目的とする。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the case of the conventional receptor layer transfer sheet as described above, the releasability of the transferred receptor layer deteriorates over time, and the thermal transfer sheet and the receptor layer deteriorate during image formation. There is a problem that so-called abnormal transfer occurs in which the dye layer adheres and is transferred as a layer. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a receptor layer transfer sheet that can provide a dye-receiving layer only at necessary locations on an arbitrary image-receiving sheet and that does not cause abnormal transfer during image formation.

That is, in the present invention, a dye-receiving layer containing a release agent and an adhesive layer are formed on at least one surface of a base sheet, and a release agent barrier layer is formed between the adhesive layer and the dye-receiving layer. This is a receptor layer transfer sheet characterized by:

In the present invention, by forming a release agent barrier layer between the adhesive layer and the dye-receiving layer of the receptor layer transfer sheet, there is provided a receptor layer transfer sheet whose mold releasability does not deteriorate even after long-term storage. .

The silicone oil includes epoxy-modified, alkyl-modified, amino-modified, carboxyl-modified, alcohol-modified, fluorine-modified, alkyl aralkyl polyether-modified, epoxy-modified,
Modified silicone oils such as polyether-modified and polyether-modified are desirable. One or more types of mold release agents may be used. One or more types of mold release agents may be used. The amount of the release agent added is preferably 0.5 to 30 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the dye-receiving layer forming resin. If the addition amount does not fall within this range, problems such as fusion between the thermal transfer sheet and the dye-receiving layer or a decrease in printing sensitivity may occur. The above-mentioned receptor layer is made by dissolving a dispersion of the above-mentioned resin and mold release agent with necessary additives in an appropriate organic solvent or dispersing it in an organic solvent or water on a base sheet. For example, it is formed by coating and drying by a forming method such as a gravure printing method, a screen printing method, or a reverse roll coating method using a gravure plate.
