This invention relates to methods for making ink-jet recording media using
hot-melt extrudable ink-receptive compositions. The melt-extrudable
compositions comprise a blend of a melt-extrudable polyvinyl alcohol
composition and poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline), a hydrolyzed copolymer of
ethylene and vinyl acetate, ethylene/acrylic acid copolymers or
ethylene/methacrylic acid copolymers. The invention also encompasses media
made by such methods. The media can be used to form high quality,
multicolored images.
