A method has been proposed to promote discharge from a multi-needle electrode by using a copolymer containing a large amount or by using a resin copolymerized with a small amount of a polar functional group such as acrylic acid.

。"Problems to be Solved by the Invention" However, the dielectric layer is required to have not only recording density but also practical properties such as fixing properties, curling, and blocking. - It is necessary to use ethylhexyl methacrylate in combination, which results in a decrease in the insulation properties of the dielectric layer and a decrease in recording density, resulting in lower overall quality characteristics.
However, there is still room for improvement. Furthermore, recording devices such as high-density electrostatic profilers use pigments with low insulating properties, such as kaolin and aluminum hydroxide, to reduce the occurrence of thin lines and abnormal dots, and to prevent friction fog, dye stains, etc. In order to prevent this, it is necessary to consider various recording conditions and developer characteristics, such as the need to use conductive pigments and hydrophilic additives, resulting in an overall well-balanced high quality. A suitable electrostatic recording medium has not yet been obtained.

It has been discovered that by incorporating a specific aluminum compound into the dielectric layer constituting the recording layer of an electrostatic recording medium, the density of the recorded image can be improved extremely efficiently without deteriorating the practical characteristics or recording characteristics. , we have completed the present invention.

This is an electrostatic recording material characterized by containing at least one of the following.

。"Function" In the present invention, the aluminate ester contained in the dielectric layer is a compound represented by the following general formula 2, and is obtained as a grease-like liquid or a solid compound.

Indicates an integer between ~5. ] Examples of the aluminum include aluminum isopropylate, mono-secondary-butoxyaluminum diisopropylate, aluminum secondary-butyrate, and aluminum ethylate.
これらのアルミン酸エステルの誘電体層中への添加量は
、誘電体層全固形分の0.01〜4.0重量%、好まし
くは0.1〜2.0重量%の範囲で調節するのが望まし
い。The amount of these aluminate esters added to the dielectric layer is adjusted within the range of 0.01 to 4.0% by weight, preferably 0.1 to 2.0% by weight of the total solids of the dielectric layer. is desirable.
因に、0.01重量%未満の添加量では、所望する記録
濃度の向上効果が得られず、4.0重量%を越えると、
記録濃度の向上効果が飽和点に達するのみならず、誘電
体層樹脂に含まれる官能基や溶剤中の水分とアルミン酸
エステルが反応してアルミニウム塩結合が生成し、誘電
体層形成塗液がゲル化現象を起こす恐れがある。Incidentally, if the amount added is less than 0.01% by weight, the desired effect of improving recording density cannot be obtained, and if it exceeds 4.0% by weight,
Not only does the effect of improving recording density reach a saturation point, but the functional groups contained in the dielectric layer resin and the water in the solvent react with the aluminate ester to form aluminum salt bonds, causing the dielectric layer forming coating solution to deteriorate. There is a risk of causing gelation.

ため、アルミン酸エステルの添加量は、上記の如き範囲
内で調節するのが望ましい。When the gelation phenomenon occurs, the smoothness of the surface of the resulting dielectric layer is impaired and the recording characteristics are deteriorated, and the formation of the dielectric layer itself may become difficult due to the increased viscosity of the coating liquid. Therefore, it is desirable to adjust the amount of aluminate ester added within the above range.

溶剤で除去する方法で誘電体層形成塗液中に含有せしめ
るのが望ましい。Since aluminate esters have extremely high reactivity, it is necessary to react selectively to the pigment surface. Therefore, it is necessary to add the insulating resin to the pigment dispersion dispersed in the solvent before adding it, or to treat the surface of the pigment with an aluminate ester in advance, and remove the excess unreacted material with an organic solvent such as benzene or xylene. It is desirable to incorporate it into the dielectric layer forming coating solution by a method of removing it.

先的に作用するため、比較的少ない添加量で本発明の所
望の効果を達成することが可能となる。When an aluminate ester is added by such a method, it reacts with attached water and hydroxyl groups present on the surface of the pigment, and acts preferentially on the surface of the pigment, so that the desired effect of the present invention can be achieved with a relatively small amount of addition. becomes possible.

~50: It is desirable to set the temperature within the range of about 50,
If the blending ratio of the pigment is less than these ratios, the gloss of the surface of the recording medium will increase to such an extent that the natural appearance will be impaired, and if it is too large, the recording density may decrease.

Sometimes sticky spots occur, so
It is desirable to use a pigment having an average particle diameter of about 1 to 15 μm, preferably about 2 to 8 μm.
