Abstract
An image-retransfer sheet for receiving an image and for retransferring the received image onto a desired image-receiving material. The image-retransfer sheet includes a substrate and a surface layer formed of surface treating agent and coated on one surface of the substrate for defining an image-receiving surface. The surface layer is provided with adhesive force control matter for controlling adhesive force to be imparted from the image-receiving surface of the surface layer. The adhesive force control matter may be provided on the surface layer in the form of a layer coated on the surface layer. Or otherwise, the adhesive force control matter may include polyethylene fine powders mixed with the surface treating agent in the surface layer. The adhesive force control matter thus provided in the image-retransfer sheet serves to control the adhesive force to such a value that only a part of the surface layer receiving the image thereon may be retransferred onto the image-receiving material together with the image.
