Claims35
A dye image receiver sheet comprising a dye-receiving layer comprising a cross-linked copolymer of polyester and a lubricator polymer, wherein said polyester component of said cross-linked copolymer is present in an amount of between 75% and 99% by weight.
The method of forming a dye receiver sheet comprising providing an aqueous dispersion of a copolymer of polyester and a lubricator polymer, bringing said aqueous dispersion into contact with a gravure coating roll, coating said aqueous dispersion onto a substrate, drying said aqueous dispersion to form a dye receiver layer.
An imaged dye receiver sheet comprising a dye image receiver sheet comprising a dye-receiving layer comprising a crosslinked copolymer of polyester and a lubricator polymer, wherein said polyester component of said crosslinked co polymer is present in an amount of between 75% and 99% by weight having a thermal image thereon, wherein said thermal image has a maximum cyan, magenta, and yellow formed black density of greater than 1.5.
