Abstract
Abstract A recording material in which a particular salicylic acid derivative is employed as a color developer, which derivative is a reaction product of a styrene dimer, an alkylstyrene dimer or the halogen substituted products thereof which material exhibits improved water resistivity, keeping stability and workability, does not produce color contamination when dipped in water and can exhibit its color-developing ability without special treatment.
