うなハード分野の高速化に伴い、使用される感熱記録体
も高速記録適性に優れた記録体が要求されている。Recently, with remarkable progress in thermal recording methods, thermal faxes and the like have become capable of high-speed printing, and it has become possible to record a standard A4 size original in 10 seconds or less. With the speed increase in the hardware field, there is a demand for heat-sensitive recording bodies that are excellent in suitability for high-speed recording.

染料と呈色剤を溶解せしめて発色開始温度を下げる方法
が広く知られている(特開昭49−34842号、特開
昭53−39139号等)。Conventionally, as a means of improving the color development sensitivity of thermal recording materials, a thermofusible substance with a lower melting point than a basic dye or coloring agent is added to the recording layer, and the dye is first absorbed by the melted thermofusible substance. A widely known method is to lower the temperature at which color development starts by dissolving a coloring agent (JP-A-49-34842, JP-A-53-39139, etc.).

、また、このような性質を有する熱可融性物質であって
も染料/呈色剤/熱可融性物質の3者系の共融現象によ
る融点降下で発色開始温度が過度に下がり、記録層の白
色度が大幅に低下するという欠点がある。However, it is generally difficult to make one type of heat-fusible substance have the property of dissolving both a basic dye and a coloring agent, and it is difficult to make a heat-fusible substance with this property. However, the disadvantage is that the temperature at which color development starts falls excessively due to the melting point drop due to the eutectic phenomenon of the dye/coloring agent/thermofusible substance, resulting in a significant decrease in the whiteness of the recording layer.
そこで本発明者らは、上記の如き欠点を伴わない熱可融

しく低下してしまい、さらに改善を要請されている。Therefore, the present inventors previously proposed a phenyl-benzyl ether derivative as a thermofusible material that does not have the above-mentioned drawbacks (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 31287/1987). However, even in heat-sensitive recording materials using such phenyl-benzyl ether derivatives, the whiteness significantly decreases when stored under high-temperature conditions, and further improvements are required.

A wide range of coloring agents used in combination were also investigated. As a result, by using a phenyl-benzyl ether derivative represented by -J[(1) below as a thermofusible substance and selectively using a specific compound as shown below as a coloring agent, this objective can be achieved.
