DETAILED DESCRIPTION An object of the present invention is to provide a thermal transfer dye image-receiving sheet applicable to various types of thermal transfer dye printers and capable of recording clear dye images thereon with a high reproducibility and at a high printing efficiency.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a thermal transfer dye image-receiving sheet substantially free from the disadvantages of a conventional thermal transfer dye image-receiving sheet having, as a support sheet, a bi-axially oriented, void-containing thermoplastic resin film.
The inventors of the present invention have discovered that a specific substrate sheet having a front surface formed by a biaxially oriented thermoplastic resin film comprising, as a main component, a mixture of a thermoplastic resin with a filler, provided with a void structure and having a surface smoothness and a glossiness controlled to specific values, is useful for providing a thermal transfer dye image-receiving sheet having an image-receiving layer formed on the substrate sheet and having a satisfactory transparency and an excellent dye-receiving performance.
The present invention is based on this discovery.
Namely, the above-mentioned objects can be attained by the thermal transfer dye image-receiving sheet of the present invention comprising: a substrate sheet; a dye image-receiving layer formed on a surface of the substrate sheet and comprising a dye-receiving resin material, a front surface of the substrate sheet, on which the dye image receiving layer is formed, being formed from a biaxially oriented thermoplastic resin film comprising a mixture of a thermoplastic resin with a filler and provided with a void structure; and the front surface of the thermoplastic resin film, on which the dye image-receiving layer is formed, having a Bekk smoothness of 1000 seconds or more and a glossiness of 50% or less.
