PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a recording sheet for pressure-sensitive and heat-sensitive process with a capsule which is used in a pressure-sensitive and heat-sensitive process, that is, a process to easily record an image in full color through controlling pressurizing and heating operations and enables the recording of a high quality image. SOLUTION: A developer layer 28 is formed on the base material 21 of a sheet 20 and a layer of microcapsules 24, 25, 26 is formed in close contact with the developer layer 28. Each of the microcapsules 24, 25 26 is of such a structure that each of their respective color couplers 24b, 25b, 26b is a transparent leuco dye sealed in capsule wall coats 24a, 25a, 26a formed, with a different coat thickness from each other, of a shape memory resin which is transparent and shows a respectively different glass transition temperature. Thus the microcapsules 24, 25, 26 are heated at a temperature above the glass transition temperature level and at the same time, are pressurized under a specified pressure to undergo a breakage and color development process. |
