This invention provides both a pigment dispersing resin which is a copolymer of:n (A) polymerizable unsaturated monomer containing at least one kind of ionic functional group selected from the group consisting of tertiary amino group, quaternary ammonium salt and sulfonic acid group; (B) nonionic polymerizable unsaturated monomer having polyoxyalkylene chain; (C) ultraviolet-absorbing polymerizable unsaturated monomer and/or an ultraviolet-stabilizing polymerizable unsaturated monomer; and (D) other ethylenically unsaturated monomer, and water-based pigment dispersion which comprises said pigment dispersing resin, pigment, aqueous medium and, as circumstances may demand, dispersing agent as well. |
