Abstract: A polyester resin for a dye receptive layer of a recording medium for sublimation type heat-sensitive transfer recording process, and a recording medium using thereof, which has superior resistance to light exposure and dark fade out. A polyester resin for a dye receptive layer of a recording medium for sublimation type heat-sensitive transfer recording process, wherein said polyester resin is formed by using a diol component containing a diol compound shown in Formula (1) in a range of 5-80 molar % with respect to the total diol component, and a receiving medium using thereof. ##STR1## (In Formula (1), each of R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 represents an alkylene group having a number of carbon atoms within a range of 1-12.

Abstract: A recording medium for sublimation type heat-sensitive transfer recording process, in which an image receiving layer comprising a resin composition containing a dyeable resin and at least one phosphite antioxidant shown in Formulas (1), (2), or (3) is formed on a substrate surface. This recording medium for sublimation type heat-sensitive recording methods has extremely superior light resistance, and the image recorded on this recording medium suffers little fade out or discoloration as a result of exposure to light, so that this recording medium is expected to contribute greatly to the spread of video printers and the like. ##STR1## (In Formula (1), R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 represent H or an alkyl group having a number of carbon atoms within a range of 1-20, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 represent alkyl groups having a number of carbon atoms within a range of 1-20, X represents H or an atomic group having 1-10 carbon atoms as a main skeleton thereof, and n has a value of 1, 2, 3, or 4.) ##STR2## (In Formula (2), R.sub.

Abstract: A recording medium for sublimation type heat-sensitive transfer recording process is disclosed in which an image receiving layer constituting a resin composition containing a dyeable resin and at least one compound shown in Formula (1) is formed on a substrate surface. This recording medium for sublimation type heat-sensitive transfer recording process has extremely superior light resistance, and the image recorded on this recording medium suffers little fade out or discoloration as a result of exposure to light, so that this recording medium is expected to contribute greatly to the spread of video printers and the like. ##STR1## (In Formula (1), R.sub.1 represents an alkyl group having a number of carbon atoms within a range of 1-20, and A represents a substituted or unsubstituted phenylene group or naphthalene group.

Abstract: Disclosed is a recording media for a sublimation-type heat-sensitive transfer recording process. The purpose of the present invention is to supply a recording media for a sublimation-type heat-sensitive process possessing an extremely high whiteness degree. The recording media comprises an image receiving layer composed of a dyeable resin which can be dyed by a sublimable dye; a crosslinking agent; and an anthraquinone based bluing agent. With the recording media for a sublimation type heat-sensitive recording process according to the present invention, a recording media having a high whiteness degree which does not turn yellow following curing can be obtained. As a result of the high whiteness degree of the foundation, this recording media is of an extremely high grade, and due to its extremely vivid recording image, it will be widely adopted and marketed in video printers.

Abstract: The present invention provides a recording medium for sublimation type for heat-sensitive transfer recording process which comprises laminated paper as the substrate. In this laminated paper at least two cellulosic fiber papers are bonded together by adhesive agent and one side is coated with a dye accepting layer. Therefore, the recording medium for sublimation type for heat-sensitive transfer recording process which the present invention concerns uses, as the substrate, laminated paper in which cellulosic fiber papers are bonded together. This structure almost completely prevents curling of the recorded medium and also lowers the substrate production cost to achieve a low-cost recording medium and thereby greatly contribute to the expanded use of sublimation type recording printers.

Abstract: Recording medium for a sublimation type heat-sensitive transfer process, comprising a laminate paper comprising a paper and a white polyester film layer adhered on one surface of the paper, in which the white polyester film layer is provided with a dye receiving layer cured with active radiation.
