PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a high-quality ink jet recorded matter excellent in color developability on a recording medium having poor liquid absorption, and to provide a liquid composition, an ink set, and a recording medium excellent in reliability. Provided are a method for forming a colored portion on a recording medium and an ink jet recording apparatus. The liquid composition is applied to a recording medium together with an anionic or cationic ink containing a coloring material, and is used to form a colored portion on the recording medium. A liquid composition or ink comprising fine particles having a surface charged to the opposite polarity in a dispersed state, and further comprising a polymerizable component that is converted into a polymer by application of energy and a solvent that dissolves the polymerizable component. A set, a method for forming a colored portion on a recording medium, and an ink jet recording apparatus. |
