An ink which comprises a water-insoluble colorant, a dispersant, a polymer resin, and water. The polymer resin is one of four monomers which are methacrylic acid and three monomers selected respectively from among C1- to C4-alkyl methacrylates, C6- to C10-alkyl acrylates, and unsaturated C2- to C4-alkyl methacrylates; and a reactive emulsifier having a radical-polymerizable double bond in the molecule. An ink-jet recording method in which the ink is used; a recording medium to which the ink has been adhered; and an ink-jet printer including a vessel filled with the ink.

Ink and ink-jet recording method

A colored dispersion for inkjet and a method for producing the same, the colored dispersion including a colorant, a dispersant, a tellurium compound, and water, in which the dispersant is an A-B block polymer; monomers constituting an A block are (meth)acrylic acid and butyl (meth)acrylate; the content of the (meth)acrylic acid in the A block is 26-42 mass %; a monomer constituting a B block includes cyclohexyl (meth)acrylate; the acid value of the dispersant is 100-159 mg KOH/g; and the mass-average molecular weight of the dispersant is 10,000-50,000. An inkjet recording ink containing the dispersion; an inkjet recording method using the ink; recording media to which the ink adheres; and an inkjet printer equipped with a container containing the ink.
