Abstract
An image-receiving sheet for electrophotography is provided which is capable of forming an image having excellent gloss and image quality, wherein a polypropylene resin layer is formed in direct contact with both surfaces of a base paper and a toner image-receiving layer is formed on the surface of the surface-polypropylene layer. The polypropylene resin forming the polyproylene resin layers has a melt flow rate (MFR) of 18 to 50 and a density of at least 0.890. The image has an excellent gloss and a high quality and free from the blister formation and also from the easy peeling of the toner image-receiving layer even at a high fixing temperature. A polypropylene resin layer is formed on both surfaces of a base paper and the surface tension of the polypropylene resin layer on the toner image-receiving layer side is controlled at 48 dyne/cm or higher.
