Abstract

An ink for ink-jet recording is provided in which a copper phthalocyanine dye is used and a thiazole-based compound is also used. In this ink, the mildew resistant properties are not impaired. Furthermore, the ink exhibits excellent ozone resistance, and the formation of a precipitate is prevented in the ink although the thiazole-based compound is used. In the ink for ink-jet recording containing the copper phthalocyanine dye and the thiazole-based compound, the used copper phthalocyanine dye has a specific structure, and about 1 mol % to about 20 mol % of the total counter ions of the dye are ammonium ions or organic ammonium ions.
