  • Example 1 contained an acylphosphine-based polymerization initiator, and was found to be excellent in scratch resistance and odor in the image recording 2 as compared with Examples 11 and 12.
  • Example 1 contained a sensitizer and was superior in scratch resistance and odor in the image recording 2 as compared with Examples 13 and 14.
  • Comparative Example 1 it was found that the viscosity was high and the image could not be recorded by the inkjet recording method.
  • Comparative Example 2 it was found that the content of the polymerizable compound having a molecular weight of 600 or less was less than 70% by mass with respect to the total mass of the polymerizable compound, and the invisibility with time was inferior.
  • the ink composition prepared in Example 1 was introduced into the 6-throttle portion of the inkjet recording device (product name "Jet Press 540WV", manufactured by FUJIFILM Corporation).
  • a base material a tube base material of OPP (biaxially stretched polypropylene film) was used. Images were recorded on the surface using color ink and white ink, and register marks were recorded using the ink composition prepared in Example 1.
  • visible light was irradiated to read the register mark, and the front surface and the back surface were aligned. Then, an image was recorded on the back surface using color ink and white ink. The register mark has since disappeared.
  • the image for alignment recorded using the ink composition of the present disclosure allows a desired image to be recorded at a predetermined position on the substrate. Further, since the image for alignment becomes invisible after a lapse of a predetermined period, the aesthetic appearance of the desired image recorded on the base material is not spoiled.
