PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a recording medium excellent in ink absorbency, image color density, water resistance, abrading resistance and lustrous properties. SOLUTION: In an ink jet recording medium having an inorganic fine particle- containing ink accepting layer on a base material and, in addition, a silica- alumina composite particle-containing layer on the ink accepting layer, the silica-alumina composite particle-containing layer is a layer including xerogel having an average pore radius of 6.0 nm or more obtained by removing solvent from silica-alumina composite sol including the silica-alumina composite particles. |
