Abstract:
1. A heat-sensitive transfer image-receiving sheet, comprising a support and a receptor layer containing at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of polyester polymers and polycarbonate polymers, and further having between the support and the receptor layer an intermediate layer containing hollow polymer particles, wherein: the at least one polymer is a polymer that dissolves in an organic solvent, the average particle size of the hollow polymer particles is 0.1 to 2 μm, the hollow polymer particles are non-foaming type hollow polymer particles formed of a polystyrene, acryl resin, or styrene/acryl resin, the intermediate layer further contains a gelatin as a binder resin, the support is a polyethylene-coated paper which is formed by laminating a polyethylene on both sides of a base paper, the polyethylene coated on the back side of the support is a blend of a high-density polyethylene and a low-density polyethylene in a blended ratio, by mass, of 2/8 to 8/2, and a charge control layer is formed on the back side of the support.
