AQUEOUS INK, INK CARTRIDGE, AND INK JET RECORDING METHOD

摘要

An aqueous ink for ink jet contains a self-dispersible pigment in which a first functional group including a phosphonic acid group and a second functional group including at least one of a carboxylic acid group and a sulfonic acid group are bonded to a particle surface, wherein a surface charge amount derived from the phosphonic acid group included in the above-described first functional group is 0.3 micromoles/m2 or more, a total surface charge amount derived from the carboxylic acid group and the sulfonic acid group included in the above-described second functional group is 1.0 micromoles/m2 or more, and a total surface charge amount derived from anionic groups included in the above-described first functional group and the above-described second functional group is 2.0 micromoles/m2 or more and 8.0 micromoles/m2 or less.
