Abstract (en)
A thermal imaging medium comprises a support, an image forming layer preferably containing carbon black, and an adhesive top layer with a strong adhesion towards that image forming layer. On exposure by intense laser radiation the image forming layer is image-wise released from the adhesive layer. By means of a lamination/delamination procdure with a stripping sheet the unexposed parts are removed while the exposed parts remain adhered to the original support. A final heat mode image is obtained with reduced level of physical defects and with low Dmin.
