PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a thermal recording medium which shows good ink receiving characteristics during thermal transfer recording and the capability of recording without generating a sticking phenomenon or printing scums during thermal recording and besides, giving rise to a blocking phenomenon, in the thermal recording medium having at least one kind or more of a thermal recording layer which contains at least one kind or more of an electron-donating and normally colorless or pale-color dye precursor and an electron-receiving developer which makes the dye precursor develop a color through a chemical reaction during heating, laminated on a support. SOLUTION: This thermal recording medium contains polyolefin resin particles in an overcoat layer and also one kind or more of either of an acrylic resin, a urethane resin or an SBR latex. In addition, even during thermal transfer recording, this medium exhibits good ink receiving properties and records data during thermal recording without generating a sticking phenomenon and printing scums. Thus this thermal recording medium shows excellent blocking characteristics. |
