Abstract (en)

A substantially light-insensitive black and white monosheet thermographic recording material comprising a support and a thermosensitive element, the thermosensitive element containing a substantially light-insensitive organic silver salt, an organic reducing agent therefor in thermal working relationship therewith, a binder and at least one stabilizer selected from the group consisting of 1-(5-mercapto-1-tetrazolyl)-acetyl compounds represented bv formula (I): <CHEM> wherein R is -NR<2>R<3>, -OR<4> or an optionally substituted aryl or heteroaryl group; R<2> is hydrogen or an optionally substituted alkyl, aryl or heteroaryl group; R<3> is an optionally substituted aryl or heteroaryl group; and R<4> is an optionally substituted aryl group; and compounds with two or more groups represented by formula (II) : <CHEM> where Q comprises the necessary atoms to form a 5- or 6-membered unsaturated heterocyclic ring, A is hydrogen, a counterion to compensate the negative charge of the thiolate group or two or more A groups provide a linking group between the two or more groups represented by formula (II).
