| abstract |
The present invention discloses an ink-jet recording material having a support and at least two ink-receptive layers containing inorganic fine particles and a hydrophilic binder, which comprises an ink-receptive layer A nearer to the support containing precipitated silica fine particles having an average secondary particle diameter 500 nm or less, or precipitated silica fine particles having an average secondary particle diameter 500 nm or less and fumed silica fine particles having an average secondary particle diameter 500 nm or less, and containing less than 20 parts by weight of a polyvinyl alcohol based on 100 parts by weight of the whole silica fine particles in the ink-receptive layer A, and an ink-receptive layer B farther from the support containing at least one kind of fine particles selected from fumed silica, alumina and alumina hydrate and less than 25 parts by weight of a polyvinyl alcohol based on 100 parts by weight of the fine particles. |
