Abstract
An ink follower composition for ballpoint pens which comprises a hardly volatile liquid and aluminum silicate added therein. The ink follower composition for ballpoint pens of the present invention has very little temperature dependence of viscosity, undergoes no liquid separation due to changes in temperature, etc. and therefore follows ink while retaining the interface with the ink and preventing the ink from adhering to the inner wall of the ink tube until the ink runs out.
