摘要

A thermal recording material of excellent offset printability, comprising a support and, superimposed thereon in sequence, a thermal recording layer and a protective layer containing a pigment component and a resin, which thermal recording material exhibits a transition amount of water, as measured on the surface of the protective layer at a contact time of 150 ms according to the Bristow's method, of 3 to 15 ml/m<2> and an angle of contact between protective layer surface and water of 60 to 100º.
