Aqueous dispersion, method for manufacturing the same, and image forming method

Abstract

Provided are an aqueous dispersion, a method for manufacturing the aqueous dispersion, and an image forming method in which the image is formed of the aqueous dispersion, the aqueous dispersion including a microcapsule that has a shell having a three-dimensional cross-linked structure containing a urethane bond and/or urea bond, and has a core, in which the shell and/or core has a polymerizable group; a dispersant in which a urethane bond and/or urea bond and an anionic group are contained, a weight-average molecular weight is 5000 or more, and an anionic group value, which is the number of millimoles of the anionic group contained in 1 g of the dispersant, is from 0.10 to 2.50 mmol/g; and water.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
