Abstract:
An image-receiving film for printing and heat transfer, comprising:a support comprising a thermoplastic resin film; and a coated layer formed on said thermoplastic resin film; wherein said coated layer comprises a dried aqueous resin dispersion as component (A), obtained by dispersing an olefin copolymer (a) having an unsaturated carboxylic acid or an unsaturated carboxylic acid anhydride in water, using at least one dispersing agent (b) selected from the group consisting of a nonionic surface active agent, a nonionic water-soluble high molecular compound, a cationic surface active agent and a cationic water-soluble high molecular compound; wherein a weight ratio of(a)/(b) is from 100/1 to 100/30 based on a total weight of solid components in said aqueous resin dispersion; and wherein said olefin copolymer (a) and said dispersing agent (b) each, independently, have a mean particle size of not larger than 5 &mgr;m.
