Aqueous pigment dispersion, aqueous green ink for inkjet recording, and aqueous red ink for inkjet recording

Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide an aqueous pigment dispersion that provides an aqueous ink for inkjet recording that contains a reduced number of coarse particles, is excellent in ejection stability, and is applicable to a printer equipped with a high-resolution inkjet head and to provide the aqueous ink for inkjet recording. The present invention relates to an aqueous pigment dispersion containing: a polymer (A) that has anionic groups, has a solubility in water of 0.1 g/100 mL or less and a number average molecular weight within the range of 1,000 to 6,000, and forms fine particles in water when the degree of neutralization of the anionic groups with a basic compound is 100%; a polyhalogenated metal phthalocyanine pigment or a diketopyrrolopyrrole pigment; and water. The invention also relates to an aqueous ink for inkjet recording.
