Abstract

A heat sealable printing sheet includes a sheet-shaped base member, and an ink receiving layer disposed on a first surface of the base member and having a heat sealability. The heat sealable printing sheet further includes a heat sealable layer disposed on a second surface of the base member and made of a heat sealable resin material. The ink receiving layer contains inorganic fine particles, a water soluble resin, and a water dispersible resin. The water dispersible resin has a glass transition temperature (Tg) satisfying −35° C.≦Tg≦35° C.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A printing sheet comprising:
a sheet-shaped base member;
an ink receiving layer disposed on a first surface of the base member and having a heat sealability; and
a heat sealable layer disposed on a second surface of the base member and made of a heat sealable resin material,
wherein the ink receiving layer comprises inorganic fine particles, a water soluble resin, and a water dispersible resin,
wherein the inorganic fine particles have an average particle diameter of 140 to 200 nm,
wherein the water dispersible resin has a glass transition temperature Tg satisfying the following expression (1),
wherein a content P (g) of the inorganic fine particles, a content A (g) of the water soluble resin, and a content B (g) of the water dispersible resin in the ink receiving layer simultaneously satisfy relations of the following expressions (2) and (3), and
wherein the ink receiving layer and the heat sealable layer are used so as to adhere to each other by thermal pressure bonding:
0° C.≦Tg≦30° C.,  (1)

A+B/P= 0.08 to 0.70, and   (2)

B/A= 0.1 to 2.0   (3).

2. The printing sheet according to claim 1 , further comprising an adhesive layer disposed between the base member and the ink receiving layer.

3. The printing sheet according to claim 1 , wherein the water dispersible resin differs from the heat sealable resin material in SP value by 0 or more but less than 2.

4. The printing sheet according to claim 1 , wherein the heat sealable resin material is at least one of polyethylenes and polypropylenes.
