COLOR SELF-DEVELOPABLE PRESSURE-SENSITIVE RECORDING MATERIAL

PURPOSE:To form a color self-developable pressure-sensitive recording material imparting a novel hue by providing a layer containing pigment prepared by coating mica with titanium oxide to at least a part of a color self-developing layer. CONSTITUTION:A coating soln. based on microcapsules each including a hydrophobic medium having an electron donating color former dissolved therein and a coating soln. based on an electron acceptive coupler are applied to a support in a laminated state or mixed state to form a color self-developable pressure-sensitive recording material having a color self-developing layer. A layer composed of pigment prepared by coating the surface of mica with one or more kind of a component selected from titanium oxide, iron oxide, tin oxide, cadmium sulfide, thallium bromiodide, germanium and silicon is provided to at least a part of the color self-developing layer. The coating amt. of the color self-developing layer is pref. 13g/m or less and the coating amt. of the org. coupler in the color self-developing layer is pref. 0.15-0.8g/m . The coating amt. of the inorg. coupler in the color self-developing layer is pref. 1.9-6g/m .
