Abstract

Abstract A dye solution composition containing a black dye obtained by the action of at least one acid or its salt: HO(CH.sub.2).sub.n SO.sub.3 H, Cl(CH.sub.2).sub.n COOH, Br(CH.sub.2).sub.n COOH (n=1 or 2) on one or a mixture of dyes of the formula (I): ##STR1## wherein R is phenylene or naphthylene residue; X and X' are each H, sulfonic acid group or sulfonate group; Y and Y' are each H or alkali metal; R' is one of amino group-containing radicals: ##STR2## (the carboxyl group may be carboxylate group and the sulfonic acid group may be sulfonate group), except that when R' has not sulfonic acid group, X and X' are not the same and when R' has sulfonic acid group, X and X' are H. This is highly stable, preservative and water soluble, and is useful as ink composition for ball-point pen and ink jet recording.
