Normally solid recording material and jet recording method using same

摘要

A normally solid recording material for use in a jet recording method wherein a recording material is ejected through an ejection outlet for recording, is composed from a heat-fusible solid vehicle and a dye compound. The dye compound is formed as a salt of a dye having a group of -SO3M or -COOM (wherein M denotes an alkali metal) and a linear alkylamine. As a result, the dye compound is provided with an increased molecular length, because of which the sublimability of the dye compound is suppressed to provide the recording material with improved fixability and freeness from a bleeding phenomenon that the color of a recorded image is transferred to another sheet contacting the image.
