Abstract:
A heat fixable thermosensitive recording material comprising, a subbing layer and a thermosensitive color image-forming layer in this order on a sheet substrate, said thermosensitive color image-forming layer comprising (a) a colorless or light-colored dye precursor and (b) a color-developer which reacts with said dye precursor to color said precursor when said thermosensitive color image-forming layer is heated, said color-developer being selected such that the color image has a high solvent resistance after the coloring, and said subbing layer comprising a color developability reducing substance capable of reducing the color-developing function of said color-developer and which does not reduce the printed image density in the thermosensitively printed part and having a melting point of 40Â° C. or higher.
