Ink, ink cartridge, and image-recording method

摘要

An ink contains a pigment dispersed with polymer, a surfactant, a water-soluble organic solvent, and water. The mass ratio of a content of the pigment to a content of the polymer in the ink is more than 3. The surfactant includes a fluorinated surfactant which is represented by Formula (1) and which has an HLB of 11 or less as determined by a Griffin method. The water-soluble organic solvent includes at least one selected from specific Group A. The total content of the water-soluble organic solvents of the Group-A in the ink is larger than the total content of water-soluble organic solvents other than the water-soluble organic solvents of Group A in the ink.
