ABSTRACT:
The present invention concerns a multi-layer thermal imaging receptor having superior transferability and image color stability for color proofing applications where the images are generated by a laser thermal process. The present invention includes a first support coated by at least, in order, a heat sensitive releasable transfer layer coated, an interfacial bonding layer and an image receiving layer of the present invention adapted to adhere to a second support when heated. The interfacial bonding layer is adapted to enhance adhesion between the heat sensitive releasable transfer layer and the image receiving layer. The present invention further provides a method of making a multi-layer thermal imaging receptor and a method of imaging using the receptor.
