Concerning a process for producing an information recording material having an information recording layer formed on a substrate, there are disclosed (1) a method of curtain-coating a coating composition film comprising two coating solution films of which the viscosity increases when the two coating solution films are brought into contact, or mixed, with each other and an intermediate coating solution film that is for isolating said two coating solution films one from the other and is provided between said two coating solution films, (2) a method of curtain-coating a coating composition film comprising at least one set of adjacent two layers of which the viscosity increases with the passage of time when the two layers are brought into contact, or mixed, with each other, (3) a method of applying water or an aqueous solution to a substrate surface and curtain-coating the substrate in a non-dry state with a coating composition film made of a plurality of layers, and (4) a method of curtain-coating a coating composition film having, as a lowermost layer, a coating solution having a water content of at least 90 % by weight. According to the method of the present invention, there can be produced an information recording material particularly excellent in quality of applied layers and excellent in various properties with good productivity.

The present invention relates to a process for producing an information recording material and a coating solution for use therein. More specifically, the present invention relates to a process for well productively producing an information recording material such as a thermal recording material or an inkjet recording material excellent particularly in the quality of coating layers and excellent in various properties, and a coating solution for use in this process.
Information recording materials having an information-recording layer formed on a substrate are used in broad fields. A variety of recording materials such as a pressure-sensitive recording material, a heat-sensitive recording material, a photo-sensitive heat-sensitive recording material, a photo-sensitive pressure-sensitive recording material, a thermal transfer recording material, an inkjet recording material, etc., are practically used as such information recording materials. In recent years, information recording materials having two or more layers formed on a substrate are also used to comply with demands for higher functions and higher performances.
A thermal recording material is generally a material in which a heat-sensitive recording layer containing a thermally color-formable material is formed on a substrate. The thermal recording material is heated with a thermal head (hot head), a thermal pen, laser light, or the like, to form an image.
