Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide an image receiving sheet for thermal transfer recording which enables recording with a high image quality free of ununiformity of transfer, by providing an ink-receiving layer comprising a chlorinated polyolefin on the ink-receiving side of a base sheet. CONSTITUTION:A coating agent for forming an ink-receiving layer which comprises a chlorinated polyolefin is applied to the ink-receiving side of a base sheet 7 for an image-receiving sheet, followed by drying. With the ink- receiving layer 8 thus provided on the base sheet 7, the adhesion of the image- receiving sheet 3 to a melted part of an ink is enhanced. The effective examples of chlorinated polyolefin are chlorinated polyethylene, chlorinated polypropylene and a chlorinated ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, at least one of which is used singly or in combination. Ordinarily, a chlorinated polyolefin having a chlorination degree of 20-50% is preferable. The chlorinated polyolefin is a polymer having rubber elasticity, and has the effects of enhancing the adhesion of the image-receiving sheet to the melted part of an ink and obviating ununiformity of contact.

In melt-type thermal transfer recording, as shown in Fig. 1, a recording ink layer 2 made of a hot-melt solid material and a coloring component material is coated on one side of a sheet-like substrate 1 such as capacitor paper, polyester film, or synthetic paper. Recording is performed on a simple principle in that by applying thermal energy 5 to a recording sheet 6, the ink 4 which has been melted or softened is transferred onto the image receiving sheet 3.

As a method to eliminate such uneven transfer, the idea was to infiltrate the inside of the product with molten transfer ink.
A layer containing wax as the main component is provided on the base sheet (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 59-229394), or a coating agent containing a large amount of porous pigment is applied to the base sheet to a thickness of 10μ or more (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 59-229394). (No. 8385/1983) is being attempted. However, because the ink penetrates into these image-receiving sheets, the overall color tone becomes dull and dull.

In the present invention, an ink image-receiving layer 8 is formed on the base sheet 7 by applying an ink image-receiving layer forming coating agent containing chlorinated polyolefin to the ink-receiving surface side of the base sheet 7 of the image-receiving sheet and drying it. The adhesion of the image receiving sheet 3 to the melted part of the ink is improved.

Here, chlorinated polyolefin refers to polyolefin dissolved in an organic solvent9, quenched in water, or chlorinated in a gas phase. Among these, chlorinated polyethylene, chlorinated polypropylene, chlorinated ethylene, Vinyl acetate copolymers are effective, and one or a mixture of two or more of these may be used. Usually, a chlorine ratio of 20 to 50% is preferred, and a chlorination ratio of 20 to 40% is particularly effective. Such chlorinated polyolefin is a polymer with rubber elasticity and is thought to improve the adhesion of the image receiving sheet to the molten portion of the ink and also contribute to eliminating contact unevenness.

Furthermore, as a means for eliminating uneven contact between the image receiving sheet and the melted portion of the ink, it is effective to add an inorganic pigment having an average particle size of 0.2 to 10 .mu.m in addition to the chlorinated polyolefin to the ink slag receiving layer. This is to solve the problem of contact unevenness, which is difficult to achieve by simply increasing the surface smoothness, by creating a uniform and slightly uneven surface1.Such electrical pigments include silica, clay, talc, calcium carbonate, Examples include fine powders of aluminum silicate, titanium oxide, aluminum hydroxide, and the like. The ratio (A:B) of the chlorinated polyolefin powder to the machine pigment CB) is preferably from lO2θ to 4:6, and particularly from 9:1 to 6:4.
