PURPOSE:To make it possible to perform the transfer recording of an image having a sharp hue without scattering carbon black or generating a malodor and to prevent the generation of background staining due to pressure-sensitivity, by forming the titled recording material from a laminated body having a layered structure and performing current passing recording at low voltage. CONSTITUTION:The titled recording material comprises a laminated body having a four-layered structure and a first layer consists of a metal powder and a resin matrix and is a metal-containing resin layer wherein the metal powder occupies 5-60vol% and the surface resistivity thereof is 10<5>-10<16>OMEGA and no discharge breakdown is generated at the time of current passing recording. A second layer is a conductive layer having surface resistivity of 1-10<4>OMEGA and receives discharge electrode at the time of current passing recording and a third layer is a thermal transfer layer consisting of a colorant and a binder while a fourth layer is a thermal transfer layer consisting of a colorant, of which the content is smaller than that of said third layer, and a binder. When this recording material is supplied to a discharge or current passing recording apparatus and current passing recording is performed, the conductive layer B receives discharge breakdown directly under a recording needle and generates heat and two thermal transfer layers C, D are transferred to recording paper by said heat to be recorded thereon. |
