A black ink for inkjet recording having an aqueous medium containing a dye in which λmax of the absorption spectrum in an aqueous solution is in the region from 500 and 700 nm and the half-value width in the absorption spectrum of a dilute solution standardized to an absorbance of 1.0 is 100 nm or more. An object of the present invention is to provide an inkjet recording ink ensuring excellent discharge stability even after aging of the ink and also exhibiting excellent weather resistance. |
