Coated recording sheets

A process which comprises applying an aqueous recording liquid to a recording sheet in an imagewise pattern to a recording sheet which comprises a substrate;

• a first coating in contact with the substrate which comprises a crosslinking agent selected from the group consisting of:
• (a) hexamethoxymethyl melamine, (b) methylated melamine-formaldehyde, (c) methylated urea-formaldehyde, (d) cationic urea-formaldehyde, (e) cationic polyamine-epichlorohydrin, (f) glyoxal-urea resin, (g) poly (aziridine), (h) poly (acrylamide), (i) poly (N,N-dimethyl acrylamide), (j) acrylamide-acrylic acid copolymer, (k) poly (2-acrylamido-2-methyl propane sulfonic acid), (l) poly (N,N-dimethyl-3,5-dimethylene piperidinium chloride), (m) poly (methylene-guanidine) hydrochloride, (n) poly (ethylene imine), (o) poly (ethylene imine) epichlorohydrin, (p) poly (ethylene imine) ethoxylated, (q) glutaraldehyde, and mixtures thereof;
• a catalyst;
• and a polymeric material capable of being crosslinked by the crosslinking agent and selected from the group consisting of:
• (a) polysaccharides having at least one hydroxy group, (b) polysaccharides having at least one carboxy group, (c) polysaccharides having at least one sulfate group, (d) polysaccharides having at least one amine or amino group, (e) polysaccharide gums, (f) vinyl polymers, (g) poly (alkylene oxides), and mixtures thereof;
• and a second coating in contact with the first coating which comprises a binder and a material selected from the group consisting of:
• (a) fatty imidazolines, (b) ethosulfate quaternary compounds, (c) dialkyl dimethyl methosulfate quaternary compounds, (d) alkoxylated di-fatty quaternary compounds, (e) amine oxides, (f) amine ethoxylates, (g) Imidazoline quaternary compounds, (h) alkyl benzyl dimethyl quaternary compounds, (i) poly (epiamines), and mixtures thereof.
