Ink

Ink is a liquid or paste used for writing, drawing, printing, or painting. It typically contains colorants (like pigments or dyes), solvents (to keep it fluid), and various additives to enhance durability, drying time, and consistency. Ink is commonly found in pens, markers, printers, and other writing instruments. Different types of ink exist for specific uses, such as inkjet ink for printers or fountain pen ink for calligraphy. The invention of ink has played a crucial role in communication and art throughout history, enabling the recording and sharing of information and creative expression.
