Abstract

An ink for ink-jet recording comprises a pigment, an anionic surfactant, and a cationic surfactant. The cationic surfactant interacts with the anionic surfactant which does not contribute to the dispersion of the pigment in the ink to avoid any excessive permeation of the anionic surfactant into paper. It is possible to obtain a sharp image in which the printing concentration is high and the feathering and the bleeding are scarcely caused.
