The object of the present invention is to provide a novel developer capable or realizing a thermal recording material superior in preservation stability (i.e., heat resistance, moisture resistance) of color images and non-image areas, while satisfying the recent request for high sensitivity, and a thermal recording material using the developer.
The developer for a thermal recording material of the present invention is characterized in that it consists of a composition containing, of condensates represented by the formula (I):
wherein R is a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group, an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an alkoxyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a cyano group, a nitro group, an aryl group or an aralkyl group, R in the number of m may be the same or different and m is an integer of 0-3, and n is an integer of 0-3, a condensate having two cores wherein n=0 as a main component, and at least one kind of condensate of the formula wherein n=1-3, and that a thermal recording material obtained using this developer shows high sensitivity, high dynamic color density, and superior preservation stability.
本发明的目的是提供一种新型显影剂,它能够或实现一种在彩色图像和非图像区域的保存稳定性(即耐热性、防潮性)方面优越的热敏记录材料,同时满足最近对高灵敏度的要求,并提供一种使用该显影剂的热敏记录材料。
本发明的热敏记录材料用显影剂的特征在于,它由含有式(I)表示的缩合物的组合物组成:
其中 R 是卤素原子、羟基、具有 1 至 5 个碳原子的烷基、具有 1 至 5 个碳原子的烷氧基、氰基、硝基、芳基或芳烷基,R 的个数可以相同或不同,且 m 是 0-3 的整数,n 是 0-3 的整数、一种具有两个核(其中 n=0 为主要成分)的缩合物,以及至少一种式中(其中 n=1-3)的缩合物,使用这种显影剂获得的热敏记录材料具有高灵敏度、高动态色彩密度和优异的保存稳定性。
