Radiation-curable ink composition, ink jet recording method, and recorded matter

An ink jet recording method comprising the steps of:

• (a) discharging a radiation-curable ink composition onto a recording medium, the composition including:
• a phenoxyethyl acrylate (A) in an amount of from 20 to 55 mass % of the total reaction components;
• a multifunctional acrylate (B) in an amount of from 10 to 50 mass % of the total reaction components;
• a yellow pigment (F2);
• and
• a photopolymerization initiator comprising at least one of 2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl-diphenyl-phosphine oxide and bis(2,4-6-trimethylbenzoyl)-phenylphosphine oxide;
• and
• (b) irradiating the discharged radiation-curable ink composition with active radiation having a peak emission wavelength ranging from 350 to 400 nm using an active radiation source.
