(57) [Abstract] [Purpose] The first is to provide a material capable of forming an image with a safe and simple dry process and good resolution and sensitivity, and the second is to expose with a long wavelength light of 500 nm or more. And to provide a highly sensitive image forming material, and thirdly to provide an image forming material that is stable even during storage, and further to provide an image forming method using the image forming material. An image forming method comprising: an image forming material containing a cobalt (III) complex, a specific dye and an aromatic dialdehyde; and imagewise exposing the image forming material and then heating the image forming material. |
