A container of the present invention for use of ink jet recording liquid is arranged to store recording liquid to be supplied to an ink jet recording head. This recording liquid container comprises the container main body, and an absorber holding recording liquid contained in the interior of the container main body, and the absorber is constituted by the fiber having its elongation percentage (Japanese Industrial Standard JIS-L1015) of 250% or less. With the elongation percentage of the fibrous absorber manufactured by the thermal processing which is defined within a specific range, it becomes possible to suppress the dimensional changes before and after the execution of the thermal processing, as well as to make the difference smaller between the higher and lower densities on the surface layer and the central portion of the fibrous absorber, respectively, hence providing a highly uniform absorber.
A fibrous absorber for a liquid to be housed in a container storing the liquid, said fibrous absorber comprising a fibrous aggregate arranged by aggregating a plurality of fibers, applying heat to fuse a part of the fibers, and bonding parts of the fibers,
A container for use in ink jet recording to store recording liquid to be supplied to an ink jet recording head the container comprising:
