Recording medium producing method and recording medium

Abstract

A recording medium producing method comprising a step of coating a coating liquid which is a mixture of an inorganic fine particle dispersion and a water-soluble binder on a support, wherein the inorganic fine particle dispersion is prepared by a process comprising the steps of heating the inorganic fine particle dispersion at a temperature of from 45° C. to 60° C. for a time of from 0.5 to 5 hours, standing the inorganic fine particle dispersion at a temperature of from 10° C. to 40° C. for a time of from 0.5 to 5 hours, and mixing the inorganic fine particle dispersion is mixed with the water-soluble binder. This invention provides a method for producing a recording medium for ink-jet recording by supplying a coating liquid which is stable in the viscosity Without increasing during standing period and a recording medium produced by the producing method which has no coating defect and gives high image density.
