Abstract

This invention provides an ink composition with excellent storage stability, inkjet ejection properties, and curability. [Solution] The ink composition disclosed herein comprises a polymerizable compound and a photopolymerization initiator, wherein the polymerizable compound has one or more (meth)acrylates in its molecule, and the content of organic sulfonic acid measured by water extraction at a temperature of 25°C is 1 ppm or more and 50 ppm or less, wherein the water extraction method involves measuring the content of organic sulfonic acid in a measurement solution prepared by mixing the ink composition with water using chromatography, and the water content measured by the Karl Fischer method is 0.01% by mass or more and 0.50% by mass or less relative to the total mass of the ink composition.
