On the other hand, as a technique for preventing the sticking phenomenon, there is a technique using a backing layer. For example, JP-A-55-746
Publication No. 7 proposes providing a heat-resistant protective film made of silicone resin or the like on the film support, but since the friction with the heating head is large, long-term I! Jl recording has the disadvantage that the heating head wears out. Furthermore, JP-A-57-129789 proposes providing a resin layer on a film support containing a surfactant or organic salt that is solid or semi-solid at room temperature; Since the resin layer absorbs moisture, a so-called sticky appearance occurs, resulting in a drawback that the thermal head becomes extremely dirty.
