Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a thermal transfer material having excellent thermal transfer performance and favorable preservability, by a method wherein a plurality of thermally transferrable ink layers are provided in a thermal transfer material, and the melting point of one of the layers on the base side is set to be relatively low. CONSTITUTION:The thermally transferrable ink layer 3 consisting of the first ink layer 3a and the second ink layer 3b is provided on the base 2 consisting of a known film, paper or the like. At least one of the ink layers comprises a known coloring agent. A heat-fusible binder for constituting each of the ink layers is appropriately selected from waxes, higher fatty acids, thermoplastic resins or the like while taking the melting points thereof into consideration, and is used singly or in mixture of two or more. The melting point of the binder for the first ink layer 3a is set to be 50-60 deg.C, while the melting point of the binder for the second ink layer 3b is preferably set to be higher than that by 10-20 deg.C. The thickness of each of the ink layers is 1-5mum, and the total thereof is 2- 10mum.

In recent years, with the rapid development of the information industry, various information processing systems have been developed, and recording methods and devices suitable for each information processing system have also been developed and adopted. One such recording method is the thermal recording method.
The equipment used is lightweight, compact, noiseless, and has excellent operability and maintainability, and has recently been widely used.

However, among the recording papers used in thermal recording methods, ordinary thermal recording paper is a color-forming processed paper containing a color former and a color developer, so it is expensive, and records can be tampered with. The paper has disadvantages in that it has poor storage stability, such as the paper easily developing color due to heat or organic solvents, and the recorded image fading in a relatively short period of time.

This heat-sensitive transfer recording method generally uses a heat-sensitive transfer material made by melt-coating a heat-transferable ink made of a heat-melting binder with a colorant dispersed on a sheet-like support. The thermally transferable ink layer is superimposed on the recording medium so as to be in contact with the recording medium, and heat is supplied from the support side of the thermal transfer material by a thermal head to transfer the melted ink layer onto the recording medium. A transfer ink image is formed according to the heat supply shape. According to this method, while maintaining the above-mentioned advantages of the thermal recording method, it is possible to use paper passing through the paper as a recording medium, and the disadvantages associated with the use of the thermal recording method described in 1.1 can also be eliminated.

However, even in a thermal transfer recording method having such excellent characteristics, there are still some points that require improvement. One of these is the improvement of thermal transfer performance, particularly recording sensitivity in order to provide clear recorded images by heating with little energy or in a relatively short time. In order to improve this thermal transfer performance, it is possible to use a heat-melting binder with a low melting point, but in this case, the heat-transferable ink layer becomes sticky even at relatively low temperatures, and the heat-sensitive transfer material becomes sticky. This results in problems such as poor storage stability, staining of the recording medium in contact with the thermal transfer material at low temperatures, or staining in non-printing areas.

It has been found that it is particularly effective to lower the melting point of one layer on the support side to a relatively low melting point.
