A negative-type image recording material comprising a support having a rear surface and an image recording layer disposed on the support, the image recording layer having a front surface and including (A) a radical-generating agent and (B) a radically polymerizable compound, wherein a static friction coefficient between the front surface and the rear surface is less than 0.50. In order to achieve such a specified static friction coefficient, it is preferable that the image recording layer contains (D) a compound represented by the following formula (1): n R 1 —X (1) n wherein R 1 represents an optionally substituted hydrocarbon group having a total of 8 to 32 carbon atoms, and X represents CO—Y—R 2 , NH—CO—NH—R 2 , SO 2 —Y—R 2 , or Y—R 3 in which Y represents O, S, NR 4 or a single bond. |
