Abstract

Provided is an active energy ray-curable ink composition for offset printing capable of achieving superior gloss of printed matter. The ink composition comprises a compound having at least one ethylenically unsaturated bond and a photopolymerization initiator, wherein a group of materials having no ethylenically unsaturated bonds, having a specified SP value, and exhibiting a liquid state at room temperature is added to the ink composition up to the upper limit depending on the SP value. Examples of such a group of materials include castor oil, hardened castor oil, polymerized castor oil, coconut oil, palm kernel oil, epoxidized fats and oils, alkylphenols having C15-C18 alkyl groups, cashew nut shell liquid, polymers of cashew nut shell, and modified derivatives of cashew nut shell liquid.
