Patent ID: 8883275

Claim:
An inkjet recording medium and ink set, comprising: ink comprising: water; a hydrosoluble organic solvent comprising an amide compound represented by the following Chemical Structure 1; a surface active agent; and a coloring agent; and a recording medium comprising: a substrate; and a coated layer on at least one side of the substrate, wherein a transfer amount of pure water to the recording medium having the coated layer is 2 ml/m 2 to 35 ml/m 2 during a contact time of 100 ms and 3 ml/m 2 to 40 ml/m 2 during a contact time of 400 ms when measured by a liquid dynamic absorption tester at 23° C. and 50% RH, and wherein the hydrosoluble organic solvent further comprises wetting agents, wherein a content of the hydrosoluble organic solvent comprising the amide compound represented by the Chemical Structure 1, and all of the wetting agents in the hydrosoluble organic solvent, in the ink for inkjet recording, ranges from 20% by weight to 50% by weight, and wherein the wetting agents in the hydrosoluble organic solvent comprises: a wetting agent A which is a polyol having an equilibrium moisture content of 30% or more by weight in an environment of 23° C. and relative humidity of 80% and a boiling point of higher than 250° C.; and a wetting agent B, which is a polyol having an equilibrium moisture content of 30% or more by weight at 23° C. and relative humidity of 80% and a boiling point of from 140° C. to 250° C.
