What elements does ink contain?

Answers (1)

The average ballpoint pen's ink is composed of dye or pigment particles – carbon black for black pens, eosin for red, or a suspected cocktail of Prussian blue, crystal violet and phthalocyanine blue for the classic blue pen – suspended in a solvent of oil or water.
