Ink set

Abstract

An ink set contains a pretreatment solution and an ink composition, wherein the pretreatment solution contains an organic acid with a boiling point of 120° C. or lower at 1 atmospheric pressure, and the ink composition contains A to E below: (A) a white pigment; (B) an alkali-soluble resin being an acrylic-based copolymer resin with an acid value of 200 mgKOH/g or higher that also contains a monomer having carboxyl groups and a hydrophobic group-containing monomer as monomer components, amounting to a content of 1.0 to 3.0% by mass in the ink composition; (C) a water-dispersible resin with a glass transition temperature of −25° C. to 10° C.; (D) a silicone-based surfactant; (E) water. The ink set that can provide a printed matter (fabric) offering excellent abrasion resistance of the printed text and images, as well as good washing fastness and tackiness (non-sticking) of the printed face.
