  • Patent number: 5268348
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an image-receiving sheet used in combination with a heat transfer sheet having a dye layer containing a dye which is melted or sublimated by heating and passed onto said image-receiving sheet, characterized in that a sheet-like substrate (11) includes on its surface a dye-receiving layer (12) for receiving a dye coming from said heat transfer sheet, said dye-receiving layer (12) comprising a copolymer obtained by the copolymerization of (i) vinyl chloride, (ii) an acrylic acid type monomer and (iii) a linear polymer having a vinyl group at an end. The present sheet of such a structure as mentioned above is improved in terms of dyeability and weather-resistance-after-printing, and excels particularly in the storability of printed images.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4943555
    Abstract: An image-receiving sheet which is used in combination with a heat transfer sheet having a dye layer containing a dye transferable through melting or sublimation with heat, characterized in that it has a receiving layer for receiving the dye transferred from the above-mentioned heat transfer sheet on one surface of a sheet substrate, and the weight of the solvent in the receiving layer is 1% or less of the weight of the solvent soluble components forming the receiving layer.
