Abstract:
A thermal transfer sheet, which includes a transfer layer, is superposed on a transfer receiving article, and while the transfer layer is continuously transferred onto the article by a printer comprising a sheet supplying device, heating device, sheet winding device, measuring device located between the heating and sheet winding devices to measure the tensile strength of the thermal transfer sheet conveyed along a conveyance path, and release device located between the heating and the measuring devices, under conditions including an applied power for printing: 0.15 W/dot and a conveying speed for the thermal transfer sheet: 84.6 mm/sec., the transfer layer transferred on the article is released from a constituent member in contact with the transfer layer of the thermal transfer sheet, has a tensile strength measured by the measuring device of 0.1 N/cm or less.

Claim (Index 4):
A thermal transfer sheet including a transfer layer provided on one surface of a substrate, wherein\n the transfer layer includes one or two or more layers, among the layers constituting the transfer layer, the layer located nearest the substrate comprises a copolymer of methyl (meth)acrylate and ethyl (meth)acrylate, the copolymerization ratio of methyl (meth)acrylate in the copolymer is 60% or more and 90% or less on a molar basis, the copolymerization ratio of ethyl (meth)acrylate is 10% or more and 40% or less on a molar basis, when the copolymerization ratio of the methyl (meth)acrylate in the copolymer is 80% or more on a molar basis, the weight average molecular weight (Mw) of the copolymer is 15000 or less, and meanwhile, when the copolymerization ratio of the methyl (meth)acrylate in the copolymer is less than 80% or less on a molar basis, the weight average molecular weight (Mw) of the copolymer is 45000 or less.
