年急速に普及し、感熱記録の用途も拡大している。(Prior art) The thermal recording method has three advantages: (1) no development is required; (2) when the support is paper, the quality of the paper is similar to that of ordinary paper; (3) it is easy to handle; and (4) color density is high. (5) The recording device is simple and inexpensive, and (6) There is no noise during recording, so it has rapidly become popular in the field of facsimiles and printers in recent years, and the applications of thermal recording are also expanding. are doing.

が提案されている。Therefore, in recent years, emulsified dispersions in which microcapsules containing a colorless or light-colored basic dye precursor and a color developer dissolved in an organic solvent that is sparingly soluble or insoluble in water are emulsified and dispersed on a support have been developed. A heat-sensitive recording material has been proposed in which a coating liquid is coated and dried.

として作製されている場合に特に顕著である。(Function) As described above, when a layer that develops color when heated and a layer that becomes opaque are laminated, the image area is not only colored but also becomes opaque by thermal printing by the thermal head. The image contrast is better than in the case of a heat-sensitive recording material having each heat-opaque layer individually, and this effect is particularly remarkable when the heat-sensitive record of the present invention is produced for OHP use using a transparent support.
