Abstract

Abstract In a heat-sensitive recording material in which a resin layer is formed on a recording layer containing at least a color forming material and a color developing material which forms a color when reacted with the color forming material by contact, a heat-sensitive recording material which is characterized in that the resin is essentially composed of an acetoacetylated polyvinyl alcohol and/or a copolymer of vinyl alcohol, acrylonitrile and optionally an other copolymerizable monomer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 73 words
In a heat-sensitive recording material in which a resin layer is formed on a recording layer containing at least a color forming material and a color developing material which forms a color when reacted with the color forming material by contact, the improvement comprising said resin layer is essentially composed of an acetoacetylated polyvinyl alcohol, a copolymer comprising vinyl alcohol and acrylonitrile or a mixture of said acetoacetylated polyvinyl alcohol and said copolymer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 73 words
In a heat-sensitive recording material in which a resin layer is formed on a recording layer containing at least a color forming material and a color developing material which forms a color when reacted with the color forming material by contact, the improvement comprising said resin layer is essentially composed of an acetoacetylated polyvinyl alcohol, a copolymer comprising vinyl alcohol and acrylonitrile or a mixture of said acetoacetylated polyvinyl alcohol and said copolymer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 1 wherein the degree of acetoacetylation of the polyvinyl alcohol is 0.1 to 20 mole%.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 1 wherein the acrylonitrile units content in the copolymer is 0.5 to 45 mole%.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 1 wherein a curing agent is further added to the resin layer.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 31 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 4 wherein the amount of the curing agent is 0.001 to 100 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the resin.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 17 words
A heat-sensitive recording material as defined in claim 1, wherein said copolymer further comprises another copolymerizable monomer.
