Water-based inkjet ink
A water-based ink-jet which at least contains a pigment, a water-soluble organic solvent, and a surfactant (A), wherein the water-soluble organic solvent is a water-soluble organic solvent having an HLB value determined by Griffin's method of 8 or less, the water-soluble organic solvent being contained in an amount of 10-50 wt % with respect to the total weight of the water based ink-jet ink, and the surfactant (A) comprises an acetylenediol-based surfactant (a1) having an HLD value determined by Griffin's method of 3 or less.
1. A water-based inkjet ink comprising at least a pigment, a water-soluble organic solvent and a surfactant (A), wherein
the water-soluble organic solvent is a water-soluble organic solvent having an HLB value determined by Griffin's method of 8 or less, which is included in an amount within a range from 10% by weight to 50% by weight relative to a total weight of the water-based inkjet ink, and
the surfactant (A) comprises an acetylenediol-based surfactant (a1) having an HLB value determined by Griffin's method of 3 or less, wherein an amount of the acetylenediol-based surfactant (a1) having an HLB value of 3 or less is within a range from 0.25% by weight to 5.0% by weight relative to a total weight of the water-based inkjet ink.
