Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a base for an ink-jet recording head having a long life by preventing a thermally decomposed substance of ink from piling particularly to a heat acting part in the base. SOLUTION: The base for the ink-jet recording head has a plurality of heating resistors 2004 formed on a substrate 2001 via a heat storage layer 2002 for generating a thermal energy to be utilized to discharge ink. In the base, a region corresponding to the heat acting part 2008 where the heat generated by the heating resistors 2004 act to the ink is processed to be super hydrophilic and an angle of contact of the region to water is set to be 5 deg. or smaller.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a water-based pigment ink which is excellent in long-term storage stability, does not clog a nozzle, and exhibits improved delivery stability, jetting accuracy on a recording medium, quality, and fastness by compounding a colorant contg. a self-dispersible carbon black having hydrophilic groups bonded to the surface thereof with a humectant and a water-base medium contg. water and a water-soluble org. solvent. SOLUTION: This ink is prepd. by compounding a colorant contg. a specific carbon black with a water-based medium, a specific humectant, and a surfactant and does not contain a dispersant for dispersing a pigment. As the result of using, as the colorant, an ionic self-dispersible carbon black having at least one kind of hydrophilic group bonded to the surface thereof directly or through other groups of atoms, a dispersant for dispersing the carbon black is not necessary. The humectant used has a structure represented by the formula (wherein m and n are each 1-5). The ink contains 0.1-15wt.% colorant and 1-30wt.% humectant.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ink tank enabling the stable use for a long time in an excellent state without damaging storage stability in case where an ink prepared by dispersing carbon black is stored in the ink tank, in which the ink is stored in a state impregnated in an ink absorbent, and to provide an ink jet cartridge, etc., using the ink tank. SOLUTION: This ink tank stores an ink absorbent, in which an ink containing at least a coloring material and an aqueous medium is impregnated. The ink absorbent is composed of a soft hydrophobic absorbent. The ink contains an auto-dispersion type carbon black, in which at least one kind of hydrophilic group is bound on its surface directly or via another atomic group, as coloring material which is dispersed in the ink without needing a dispersant.
