In recent years, along with social demands such as an increase in the amount of information, resource saving, labor saving, and pollution-free, various recording systems have been put to practical use and improved in the information recording field. The heat-sensitive recording method using (1) primary color development does not require a developing step, (2) hardware can be simple and compact, maintenance cost is low, (3) the feel is similar to plain paper, and the sheet itself Due to its relatively low cost, it has been put to practical use in computer output, medical measurement recorder fields, facsimile fields, printer fields, POS labels, vending machine tickets, etc. As the thermosensitive recording material used in such a system, a colorless or light-colored leuco dye having a lactone, lactam, or spiropyran ring on a support and an acidic substance, for example, a thermosensitive coloring layer containing an organic acid or a phenolic compound. Those provided (Japanese Patent Publication No. 43-4160, 45-14039, etc.) are known. However, the above-mentioned leuco-type heat-sensitive recording material has the drawback that the stability of the recorded image is poor and the color is easily erased. For example, there is a problem that when a contact is made with oil or a plasticizer (such as dioctyl phthalate) in plastic film, the recorded image is erased, and the solution of this problem has become a major technical problem for this type of recording material. .

In the past, several proposals aimed at solving this problem have been proposed. For example, in the thermosensitive coloring layer, a large amount of a resin having good water resistance and chemical resistance was added to improve the stability of the thermosensitive coloring layer. In some cases, the thermosensitive coloring layer contains a resin that is cured by heat or light to improve the stability of the thermosensitive coloring layer.In addition, a resin protective layer is formed on the surface of the thermosensitive coloring layer to form a thermosensitive coloring. For example, the layer is protected from chemicals and water.
On the other hand, in the field of pressure-sensitive paper, a developer using a developer having good chemical resistance has been proposed (JP-A-48-5 / 716, JP-B-51-25174). Although the use of a color developer is effective for pressure-sensitive paper, it is not effective for heat-sensitive recording paper, and the color development part is stable when it comes into contact with a plasticizer, but the color development of the ground color part (non-color development part) There is a problem of happening. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 59-11286 also discloses a specific developer, which may be suitable for pressure-sensitive paper, but most of them are not suitable for heat-sensitive recording materials. . That is, the initial density of the background color portion is high (background fog), and only a very low-quality thermal recording material can be obtained. Further, most of them, like the color developing agent in the pressure sensitive paper field, cause the ground color portion to develop color upon contact with a plasticizer.

The object of the present invention is that, in combination with a combination of a specific fluorane compound and an antipyrine complex of zinc thiocyanate, not only the decolorization of the color-developed part and the development of the ground-colored part do not occur upon contact with oil or a plasticizer, but also the adhesion of alcohol. This is not seen in the conventional heat-sensitive recording material in which the background color does not develop,
It is to provide a heat-sensitive recording material having extremely high image stability.

[K] Liquid Bisphenol A 20 parts 10% Hydroxyethylcellulose aqueous solution 20 parts Water 60 parts Thermal recording sheet (a) obtained as above
(I) was printed at 150 ° C. with a thermal inclination tester (manufactured by Toyo Seiki) at a pressure of 2 kg and a contact time of 1 second. When cotton seed oil was thinly applied to the color-developed portion and the ground-colored portion of the heat-sensitive recording sheets (a) to (i) and left for 24 hours in the room, the state of change was examined. And those of Comparative Examples 1 to 4 (d to g)
Neither the color-developed portion nor the ground-colored portion was observed, but in Comparative Example 5 (h), the color-developed portion was not erased, but the ground-colored portion was observed. In Comparative Example 6 (i), the background color portion did not develop color, but the color development portion was decolored.

Next, the thermosensitive recording sheets (a) to (i) were printed in the same manner, and a 4 cm square was cut out around the printed portion, and a polyvinyl chloride film (Polyrap V-300 manufactured by Shin-Etsu Polymer Co., Ltd.) was cut on this. After stacking one sheet and applying a load of 500 g / cm 2 at room temperature for 24 hours, take it out, measure the density of the background color part and the density of the color development part with a Macbeth densitometer (RD-514), and determine the density of the color development part, The results are shown in Table 1 in comparison with the concentration before the test.

Next, ethanol (reagent, special grade) was thinly applied to the thermal recording sheets (a) to (i), and after evaporation of ethanol, the concentration of the applied part was measured. The results are shown in Table-2.

以上より、本発明の感熱記録材料は地肌カブリもなく、

From the above, the heat-sensitive recording material of the present invention has no background fog,
It is a heat-sensitive recording material with extremely high image stability, in which the color-developed part does not disappear even when contacted with oil or a plasticizer, and the ground-colored part does not develop due to the adhesion of alcohol. I understand.
