Abstract
The present invention provides a thermosensitive recording medium, which has a satisfactory color developing sensitivity, an excellent general printability (surface strength) and an excellent anti-sticking property. The thermosensitive recording layer of the thermosensitive recording medium of the present invention contains an alkylketene dimer. Without forming a protecting layer, the thermosensitive recording medium of the present invention is superior in color developing sensitivity, general printability (surface strength) and anti-sticking property.
Claims3
