Abstract

A particulate composition to be used as a filling material in the heat-sensitive layer of a heat-sensitive recording material is described. The material is characterized by the fact that it occurs as fine-grained white pigments which are predominantly bound to amorphous precipitated silicic acid, whereby the amorphous precipitated silicic acid either (a) is wrapped in layers around the fine-grained white pigment or (b) occurs as fine particles that are bound to the fine-grained white pigment in a punctiform manner and whereby the water content of the material (b) is 1 to 10 percent by weight, preferably 2 to 8 percent by weight.
