Abstract

Abstract An image-receiving sheet element comprising an image-receiving layer provided on a flexible substrate and a removable cover sheet, wherein said cover sheet comprises a low density copolymer containing 30% by weight or more of a linear polyethylene, is described. This image-receiving sheet element shows improved slip properties and a good workability, and little deterioration in transfer properties upon prolonged storage. Furthermore, it scarcely suffers from any caused by static electricity when the cover sheet is peeled off from the image-receiving sheet.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 52 words
An image-receiving sheet element comprising an image-receiving layer provided on a flexible substrate and a removable cover sheet, wherein said cover sheet comprises a polymer containing 30% by weight or more of a linear polyethylene which is obtained by copolymerizing ethylene and α-olefins of C-3 or above by medium- or low-pressure polymerization.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 52 words
An image-receiving sheet element comprising an image-receiving layer provided on a flexible substrate and a removable cover sheet, wherein said cover sheet comprises a polymer containing 30% by weight or more of a linear polyethylene which is obtained by copolymerizing ethylene and α-olefins of C-3 or above by medium- or low-pressure polymerization.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
An image-receiving sheet element as in claim 1, wherein said cover sheet contains a matting agent.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 33 words
An image-receiving sheet element as in claim 2, wherein said cover sheet comprises at least two layers, and at least one of the layers contacting with the image-receiving layer contains a matting agent.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
An image-receiving sheet element as in claim 2, wherein said cover sheet consists of three layers, and both external layers contain a matting agent.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 26 words
An image-receiving sheet element as in claim 1, wherein said cover sheet contains an ultraviolet absorber and/or is provided with a layer containing an ultraviolet absorber.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 19 words
An image-receiving sheet element as in claim 1, wherein at least some part of said cover sheet is colored.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 26 words
An image-receiving sheet element as in claim 1, wherein said cover sheet contains an antistatic agent and/or is provided with a layer containing an antistatic agent.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 26 words
An image-receiving sheet element as in claim 1, wherein said cover sheet contains a slip agent and/or is provided with a layer containing a slip agent.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 23 words
An image-receiving sheet element as in claim 8, wherein said slip agent is a higher fatty acid or a higher fatty acid amide.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 50 words
An image-receiving sheet element as in claim 1, wherein said cover sheet comprises at least two layers, one of which, not contacting with the image-receiving layer, comprises at least one material selected from among a polymer containing 50 mol % or more of vinylidene chloride, polypropylene, nylon, and polyethylene terephthalate.
