The invention relates to hydrophobic salts of layered metal hydroxides, which can be obtained by adding one or more hydrophobic compounds from the group containing waxes and metallic soaps to a layered metal hydroxide salt in dispersion with intensive mixing, in a quantity of between 0.2 and 200 wt. % in relation to said metal hydroxide salt, the latter containing trivalent, bivalent and optionally monovalent metal cations and one or more organic anions A of formula (I) X-R-Y. In said formula: X represents hydrogen, hydroxy, carboxy, sulphato or sulpho; Y represents carboxy, sulphato or sulpho; and R represents an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, heterocycloaliphatic, olefinic, cycloolefinic, heterocycloolefinic, aromatic, heteroaromatic, araliphatic or heteroaraliphatic group comprising between 2 and 50 C-atoms, whereby said group can contain one or more substituents from the group comprising hydroxy, amino, halogen, C1-C22 alkyl, C1-C22 alkoxy, C1-C22 alkene-(CO)-O-(CH2CH2O)0-50-alkyl, C1-C22 alkene-(CO)-O-(CH2CH2O)0-50-haloalkyl, carboxy, sulpho, nitro or cyano. The liquid medium is then optionally removed, dried and isolated to produce a powder. The inventive compounds are used as electrostatic charge control agents, in particular in the field of electrophotography.
摘要:
A toner of toner particles containing at least one binder, at least one colorant, and preferably one or more external additives is advantageously formed into a developer and used in a magnetic brush development system to achieve consistent, high quality copy images. The toner particles, following triboelectric contact with carrier particles, exhibit a charge per particle diameter (Q/D) of from 0.6 to 0.9 fC/µm and a triboelectric charge of from 20 to 25 µC/g. The toner particles preferably have an average particle diameter of from 7.8 to 8.3 microns. The toner is combined with carrier particles to achieve a developer, the carrier particles preferably having an average diameter of from 45 to 55 microns and including a core of ferrite substantially free of copper and zinc coated with a coating comprising a polyvinylidenefluoride polymer or copolymer and a polymethyl methacrylate polymer or copolymer.
摘要:
A colored composition which includes a mutable colorant, an ultraviolet radiation transorber, and a molecular includant, wherein more than two molecules of the ultraviolet radiation transorber are covalently coupled to each molecule of the molecular includant. The combination of ultraviolet radiation transorber and molecular includant is denominated a functionalized molecular includant. The covalent coupling of the ultraviolet radiation transorber may be accomplished by a method which includes the steps of providing a derivatized ultraviolet radiation transorber having a nucleophilic group, providing a derivatized molecular includant having more than two leaving groups per molecule, and reacting the derivatized ultraviolet radiation transorber with the derivatized molecular includant under conditions sufficient to result in the covalent coupling of an average of more than two ultaviolet radiation transorber molecules to each molecular includant molecule. Particularly suitable nucleophilic and leaving groups are mercapto and p-toluenesulfonyl (tosyl), respectively.
摘要:
A light-stable colored composition which includes a colorant and a radiation transorber. The colorant, in the presence of the radiation transorber, is adapted, upon exposure of the transorber to specific, narrow bandwidth radiation, to be mutable. The radiation transorber also imparts light-stability to the colorant so that the colorant does not fade when exposed to sunlight or artificial light.

The application relates to a method of producing an electrostatic ink composition, the method comprising: mixing a resin and a conductive pigment in a continuous mixer to form a compounded mixture comprising particles comprising the resin and the pigment; adding a liquid carrier to the compounded mixture, such that the particles comprising the resin and the conductive pigment are dispersed in the liquid carrier; and, before, during or after adding the liquid carrier to the compounded mixture: imparting a charge on the particles comprising the resin and the pigment.
