Abstract (en)

There is provided a recording material comprising in order:- 1) a sheet-like paper substrate; 2) at least one hydrophobic barrier layer; 3) at least one ink-receptive layer; 4) at least one porous sealing layer which comprises a dispersion of a particulate polymer characterised by a film forming temperature of between 60 DEG C and 140 DEG C and an average particle size between about 1 mu m and about 50 mu m together with at least one water-soluble polymer binder. There is also provided a method wherein an image printed with the ink jet printing process on the recording materials of the invention is heated after printing to seal the porous sealing layer by partly melting and softening the particulate polymer dispersion sufficiently for it to form a film to provide a image protecting coating.
