Aqueous pigment ink composition for writing utensils

摘要

An aqueous pigment ink composition for writing utensils is provided, which is capable of providing handwritings with good opacifying properties and exhibits little difference in whiteness between handwritings obtained immediately after writing and after drying. When the composition is applied to the inner stick type of writing utensils, an ink having good opacifying properties is passed out. The ink composition comprises, at least, an emulsion of styrene resin-based doughnut-shaped flat particles as a white opacifying agent.
