Electrographic recording material, method of making and using

A method of producing an electrographic recording material which comprises applying to a conductive sheet support an organic solvent solution of an insulating polymeric binder and evaporating the solvent to form a continuous insulating layer in adherent contact with the conductive sheet support, wherein the insulating polymeric binder comprises from about 50 to about 95 parts by weight of a poly(vinyl acetal), from about 5 to about 50 parts by weight of an alkoxymethyl polyaminotriazine and from about 0 to about 30 parts by weight of an oligomer of styrene or .alpha.-methylstyrene of molecular weight in the range of about 300 to about 500.

A method of electrographic recording comprising forming an electrostatic charge pattern on an electrically insulating layer of an electrographic recording medium developing the charge pattern by application of a toner and fixing the toner by heat or pressure, wherein the electrically insulating layer comprises an intimate blend of a polymeric binder and up to 500 parts by weight of a finely divided pigment per 100 parts by weight of polymeric binder, wherein the polymeric binder comprises from about 50 to about 95 parts by weight of a poly(vinyl acetal), from about 5 to about 50 parts by weight of an alkoxymethyl polyaminotriazine and from about 0 to about 30 parts by weight of an oligomer of styrene or .alpha.-methylstyrene of molecular weight in the range of about 300 to about 500.
