Thermosensitive recording material and thermosensitive recording method

摘要

A thermosensitive recording material comprising a recording layer formed on a substrate and a coating film layer formed thereon, wherein the recording layer is of a bilayer structure composed of a first thermosensitive layer on the side of the lower layer and a second thermosensitive layer on the side of the upper layer and particles are dispersed in at least one of the first and second thermosensitive layers. An original plate for lithographic printing can be produced from a combination of an ink-philic resin and an ink-repelling resin as the compositional materials of such thermosensitive layers. Besides, thermosensitive, recording materials for magnetic recording, thermosensitive materials for electrostatic recording, thermosensitive recording materials for colored image recording and the like, can be generated through a variety of modifications of the compositional materials. Then, the use of such thermosensitive recording materials attains thermosensitive recording at a higher precision through simple processes and procedures.
