Abstract
A composition for fixing water-color ink for fixing a water-color ink is disclosed. The composition for fixing a water-color ink contains an ion exchanger, such as, a clay based interlayer compound or an ion-exchange resin. The composition for fixing water-color ink contains a water absorptive resin or a heat-melting resin as a binder. A cover film for thermal transfer is formed by forming a water-color ink fixing layer consisting of the composition for fixing water-color ink peelably on a base material. An adhesive layer or a heat-melting resin layer is formed on the water-color ink fixing layer. The cover film for thermal transfer image is superposed and thermo-compression bonded onto a thermal transfer image or a thermal transfer image having a protective layer, with the water-color ink fixing layer, the adhesive layer or the heat-melting resin layer facing the thermal transfer image or the thermal transfer image having the protective layer. The water-color ink fixing layer is transferred and stacked onto the cover film for thermal transfer image.
