Abstract

This invention relates to an imaged receptor laminate, comprising: a thermoplastic core layer having a first side and a second side; a thermoplastic skin layer overlying said first side of said core layer, said skin layer comprising a major amount of a thermoplastic copolymer or terpolymer derived from ethylene or propylene and a functional monomer selected from the group consisting of alkyl acrylate, acrylic acid, alkyl acrylic acid, vinyl acetate and combinations of two or more thereof, said skin layer having a melting point in the range of about 50.degree. C. to about 120.degree. C., said core layer having a melting point that is higher than the melting point of said skin layer; and an electrostatically formed and developed image adhered to said skin layer. In one embodiment, a dielectric layer overlies the toned image and the skin layer. In one embodiment, a conductive carrier sheet overlies the foregoing dielectric layer. In one embodiment, an overlaminate protective film layer overlies the image and the skin layer. In one embodiment, an overlaminate protective film layer overlies the dielectric layer. This invention also relates to a process for making the foregoing imaged re…
