Protective layer transfer sheet
First Claim
1. A protective layer transfer sheet comprising:
- a substrate sheet; and
a thermally transferable protective layer releasably provided on the substrate sheet, said thermally transferable protective layer comprising a combination of a main protective layer and an adhesive layer provided in that order from the substrate sheet side, said adhesive layer containing an epoxy resin and, in addition, containing at least one member selected from the group consisting of a butyral resin, an acrylic resin, an ultraviolet absorber, and a mixture thereof.

Abstract
The present invention provides a protective layer transfer sheet which, when used to thermally transfer a protective layer onto an image-receiving sheet with an image formed thereon, provides a print that does not cause cracking of the protective layer and, even when housed and stored in a vinyl chloride case containing a plasticizer or the like, does not cause the migration of a dye constituting the image to the case, that is, has excellent fastness properties. In a protective layer transfer sheet 7 comprising a substrate sheet 1, a heat-resistant slip layer 3 provided on one side of the substrate sheet 1, and a thermally transferable protective layer 2 releasably provided on at least a part of the surface of the substrate sheet 1 remote from the heat-resistant slip layer 3, the thermally transferable protective layer 2 contains an epoxy resin and, in addition, contains at least one member selected from the group consisting of a butyral resin, an acrylic resin, and an ultraviolet absorber. By virtue of this construction, a protective layer 2 is strongly adhered onto an image-receiving sheet with an image formed thereon. Further, the protective layer 2 is strong and homogeneous, and, thus, even when the print is housed in a vinyl chloride case, the print does not cause the dye to migrate to the case, that is, has excellent plasticizer resistance.
