    Abstract: A heat transferable material includes a light stabilizer that is an N-oxyl radical derived from a hindered amine and having the formula, wherein R1, R2, R5, and R6 are each independently selected from a straight or branched C1-C6 alkyl or alkene, and R3 and R4 are each independently selected from H, CH2CH3, CH3, OH, OR, COOH, or COOR, wherein R is a straight or branched C1-C6 alkyl or alkene, and having a molecular weight of 600 or less, except that all of R1, R2, R5, and R6 are not methyl when both R3 and R4 are hydrogen. The heat transferable material can be in one or more sections or patches on a thermal donor element to provide a protective overcoat material. The heat transferable material provides better image stability and improved iridescence when applied to a receiver.
