Abstract (en)

A thermal transfer ink of a solution type comprises a resin having a melt viscosity of 10,000 to 1,000,000 cps (as measured at 120 DEG C) as the base binder, characterized by containing 5 to 250 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the base resin, of at least one viscosity depressant selected from the group consisting of resins, waxes, higher fatty acids, higher alcohols, and synthetic esters for the purpose of lowering the melt viscosity, said viscosity depressant having a melt viscosity of 1 to 600 cps, measured at 120 DEG c, and being insoluble in a solvent to use or so partially soluble in the solvent that more than 1 gram of the viscosity depressant may not be soluble in 100 grams of the solvent at 40 DEG c.
