Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to a novel heat transfer sheet. By providing a heat-resistant protective layer comprising specific ingredients on a first surface of a base sheet having a heat transfer layer on a second surface thereof, there is obtained a heat transfer sheet wherein the running of a thermal head is smooth during recording; wherein an image having a high density and exhibiting no surface roughness at printing areas can be provided; wherein when the heat transfer sheet is wound up and stored, a dye does not migrate to the heat-resistant protective layer; and wherein the adhesion between the heat transfer sheet and a roll or the like does not occur within travelling apparatus.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 65 words
A heat transfer sheet comprising a heat transfer layer provided on one surface of a base sheet, and a heat-resistant protective layer provided on the other surface of said base sheet, said heat-resistant protective layer containing (a) polyvinyl butyral, (b) an isocyanate, and (c) a compound selected from the group consisting of phosphoric esters, its alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts, and mixtures thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 65 words
A heat transfer sheet comprising a heat transfer layer provided on one surface of a base sheet, and a heat-resistant protective layer provided on the other surface of said base sheet, said heat-resistant protective layer containing (a) polyvinyl butyral, (b) an isocyanate, and (c) a compound selected from the group consisting of phosphoric esters, its alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts, and mixtures thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
The heat transfer sheet according to claim 1 wherein said heat-resistant protective layer further contains a filler.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
The heat transfer sheet according to claim 1 wherein said heat transfer layer is a heat sensitive sublimation transfer layer comprising a dye having heat transferability and a binder resin.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 31 words
The heat transfer sheet according to claim 1 wherein said heat transfer layer is a heat sensitive fusing transfer layer wherein a dye or pigment is dispersed in a wax material.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 23 words
