Abstract

PURPOSE:To keep superior image density and to obtain sufficient color developing sensitivity and preserving power, by employing a phenol derivative represented by a specified general formula as a color developer and, having a specific compound contained in said color developer. CONSTITUTION:A heat-sensitive layer containing a colorless or dim leuco dye and a color developer which makes the leuco dye develop color when heat is applied is provided on a support body. A compound represented by a general formula (1) is employed for the color developer which contains at least one of the compounds, 1,1,3-tri(3-t-butyl-4-hydroxy-6- methylphenyl)butane, 1,1,3-tri(3-cyclohexyl-4-hydroxy-6- methylphenyl)butane and 1,2-bis[3,3-bis(3- tubyl-4-hyroxyphenyl)butylyloxy]ethylene. The leuco dye and color developing agent are respectively dispersed into particles and then mixed together, and may be added with a binder or a sensitizer upon necessity, thereby to obtain a paint for the heat-sensitive layer. The paint is then applied onto the support body such as a sheet of paper, a sheet of plastic, a resin-coated paper, etc., whereby the heat-sensitive recording material of this invention is obtained. In the formula, Z denotes a sulfur atom, and -SO2-, R<1> denote a lower alkyl radical which may be substituted or radical-CH2 R<2> and R<2> denotes a lower alkyl radical, phenyl radical, benzyl radical R<3> is a hydrogen atom, a lower-class alkyl radical which may be substituted, halogen atom, nitrile radical, nitro radical or alkoxy radical.

<Prior Art> In general, a heat-sensitive recording material whose coloring components are a colorless or light-colored leuco dye and a color developer that causes the leuco dye to develop color when heated.
Compared to other heat-sensitive recording materials that have been put to practical use, the color image obtained is very clear, so it is widely used as recording paper for computer output, facsimiles, recorders, etc., and also for tickets and cards. It is used. The recording properties of the recording paper differ depending on the application, but for example, in order to increase the recording speed, it is necessary to improve the recording device and promote the color development of the recording paper itself, and in recent years there has been a demand for the development of thermal paper in this direction. ing.

Bisphenol A has traditionally been commonly used as a color developer, but bisphenol A has a high melting point of 157°C and is not suitable for high-speed recording, so it has also been proposed to add various sensitizers to improve suitability for high-speed recording. Although this has been done, it is still not fully effective.

However, all of these materials have the disadvantage that the resulting images have significantly poor fading resistance. Therefore, the addition of various chemicals such as antioxidants has been proposed in order to improve the fading resistance, but nothing with satisfactory recording performance and storage stability has been obtained.
