Abstract

Abstract Electrosensitive recording member in which blackish pattern is electrically formed on a recording layer by sparking between a needle-like electrode (stylus) and the recording layer comprising a binder and an electrically reducible metal compound. Copper iodide (CuI) is specifically included in the recording layer to increase its electroconductivity.
