A thermal transfer recording medium having an improved hot-sticking resistance which comprises a thermoplastic resin film as a substrate, a thermally transferable ink layer provided on one surface of the film, and a thin layer of an inorganic substance provided on the other surface of the film. The thin layer of the inorganic substance prevents the recording medium from hot-sticking phenomenon, whereby a high speed printing is made possible.

Thermal transfer recording medium having an improved hot-sticking

A stamping foil which comprises a flexible supporting web, a lubricating layer provided on substantially whole one surface of the supporting web, a colored water-resistant resinous layer having a desired pattern and a metal deposition layer having a desired pattern provided on the lubricating layer, and an adhesive layer provided in a manner that all of the exposed surfaces of the lubricating layer, of the colored water-resistant resinous layer and/or of the metal deposition layer are covered by the adhesive layer. The stamping foil has an advantage that even a complicated combined pattern of the colored layer and the metal deposition layer can be obtained by a single operation with ease and low cost.
