Abstract
Abstract A heat-sensitive recording sheet comprising both calcium monobenzyl phthalate as stabilizer and 4-isopropoxy-4'-hydroxy diphenylsulfone and/or 4-methyl-4'-hydroxy diphenylsulfone as organic developer in heat-sensitive layer which comprises a basic colorless dyestuff and an organic developer. This heat-sensitive recording sheet provides the improved stability of developed color image against sticking of hair tonics and oils, etc.
