Abstract: A transfer printing sheet comprising a base sheet, a releasing resin layer coating the surface of the base sheet entirely or partially, a layer of a pattern printed on the release resin layer and comprising an elastic high-polymer resin and a pigment in admixture, and a layer containing an agent for dissolving synthetic fibers and covering the entire surface of the pattern layer. When the sheet is subjected to heat and pressure, the pattern of the pattern layer can be transferred onto a fabric of synthetic fiber in contact with the layer containing the dissolving agent to give a distinct print having a soft hand and outstanding color fastness against rubbing, washing and light.
