Abstract
A thermal dye transfer assemblage comprising: (a) a dye-donor element comprising a support having thereon a dye layer comprising a dye dispersed in a polymeric binder, the dye having a reactive carbonyl group, and (b) a dye-receiving element comprising a support having thereon a dye image-receiving layer, the dye-receiving element being in a superposed relationship with the dye-donor element so that the dye layer is in contact with the dye image-receiving layer, the dye image-receiving layer comprising a polymer containing a primary or secondary aliphatic amino group.

A thermal dye transfer assemblage comprising:
- (a) a dye-donor element comprising a support having thereon a dye layer comprising a dye dispersed in a polymeric binder, the dye having a reactive carbonyl group, and
- (b) a dye-receiving element comprising a support having thereon a dye image-receiving layer, the dye-receiving element being in a superposed relationship with the dye-donor element so that the dye layer is in contact with the dye image-receiving layer, the dye image-receiving layer comprising a polymer containing primary or secondary aliphatic amino groups.
A process of forming a dye transfer image comprising imagewise-heating a dye-donor element comprising a support having thereon a dye layer comprising a dye dispersed in a polymeric binder, said dye having a reactive carbonyl group, and imagewise transferring said dye to a dye-receiving element to form said dye transfer image, said dye-receiving element comprising a support having thereon a dye image-receiving layer, said dye image-receiving layer comprising a polymer containing a primary or secondary aliphatic amino group.
