Note: Ordinarily, black ink is made from nutgalls and a
solution of some salt of iron, and consists essentially
of a tannate or gallate of iron; sometimes indigo
sulphate, or other coloring matter, is added. Other
black inks contain potassium chromate, and extract of
logwood, salts of vanadium, etc. Blue ink is usually a
solution of Prussian blue. Red ink was formerly made
from carmine (cochineal), Brazil wood, etc., but
potassium eosin is now used. Also red, blue, violet,
and yellow inks are largely made from aniline dyes.
Indelible ink is usually a weak solution of silver
nitrate, but carbon in the form of lampblack or India
ink, salts of molybdenum, vanadium, etc., are also
used. Sympathetic inks may be made of milk, salts of
cobalt, etc. See Sympathetic ink (below).
