Abstract
A polyurethane resin-bonded pigment may exhibit excellent image density, dispersibility, storage stability, and resolubility, and may form an ink film that exhibits marker resistance and rubfastness. The polyurethane resin-bonded pigment is produced by bringing (I) a pigment having a surface acidic group into contact with (II) a basic compound having two or more amino groups selected from a primary amino group and a secondary amino group in its molecule in an aqueous medium to obtain a pigment having an unreacted surface amino group, and bringing the pigment having an unreacted surface amino group into contact with (III) a water-dispersible polyurethane resin having an isocyanate end group and (IV) a polyisocyanate compound to bond the pigment having an unreacted surface amino group and the water-dispersible polyurethane resin (III) having an isocyanate end group via a urea bond.
