The invention relates to a high-resolution
thermal transfer ribbon capable of being used in an
extreme environment. The high-resolution
thermal transfer ribbon is composed of a base film, a weather-proof back
coating, a
chemical corrosion-resistant middle layer and an ink layer, wherein the weather-proof back
coating is coated on one side of the base film; the
chemical corrosion-resistant middle layer and the ink layer are sequentially coated on the other side of the base film; wherein the chemical-
corrosion-resistant middle layer is mainly prepared from the following raw materials in percentage by
mass: 20-35% of a
solvent, 1-5% of a
silane coupling agent, 1-5% of a dispersing agent and the balance of resin, and the resin is formed by mixing
acrylic resin and
epoxy resin according to the
mass ratio of 3: 1-5: 1. The
thermal transfer ribbon provided by the invention can still keep the resolution of a printed image being greater than or equal to 600dpi, the
alcohol friction resistance being greater than or equal to 100 times and the light
retention rate being greater than or equal to 90% in a
weather resistance test (QUV 5000h) under the environments of high temperature (150 DEG C),
high humidity (95% RH), strong acid (pH = 1), strong alkali (pH = 13) and low temperature (-50 DEG C), solves the problems of blurring, color
fading and poor adhesion of a thermal transfer ribbon image in an
extreme environment, and is suitable for the fields of
aerospace, chemical identification, polar scientific investigation and the like.
