摘要:
In a toner having toner particles which comprise toner base particles containing at least a colorant, a release agent and a polar resin, and an inorganic fine powder, the polar resin is a resin having at least a polyester unit, synthesized in the presence of an aromatic carboxylic acid titanium compound used as a catalyst, and has an acid value of from 3 mgKOH/g to 35 mgKOH/g. The toner base particles are obtained by carrying out granulation in an aqueous medium, and the toner has a weight-average particle diameter of from 4.0 μm to 10.0 μm.

A toner is provided which is excellent in development stability in both a low-temperature, low-humidity environment and a high-temperature, high-humidity environment over a long time period. The toner includes toner particles containing at least a binder resin and a colorant, and a fatty acid metal salt. The fatty acid metal salt has a volume-based median diameter (D50s) of 0.15 μm or more and 0.65 μm or less, and the liberation ratio of the fatty acid metal salt in the toner is 1.0% or more and 25.0% or less.

A toner which has i) toner base particles containing at least a binder resin and a colorant and ii) a fatty acid metal salt composition as an external additive. The fatty acid metal salt composition contains a nonionic surface-active agent and a fatty acid metal salt. This toner and an image forming process making use of the toner can keep the toner from adhering to a toner carrying member throughout running, promise a stable chargeability of the toner and can keep any deterioration of halftone image quality from being caused by excess charging of the toner and any image fog from being caused by insufficient charging of the toner.

摘要:
A toner having a good chargeability stable against an environmental change is formed of toner particles each comprising at least a binder resin, a colorant, a release agent and a sulfur-containing polymer, and an external additive. The toner particles contain 100 to 30,000 ppm by weight thereof of at least one stabilizer element selected from the group consisting of magnesium, calcium, barium, zinc, aluminum and phosphorus. The toner particles may preferably be produced by suspension polymerization of a monomer composition containing the sulfur-containing polymer in an aqueous medium containing a dispersion stabilizer having the stabilizer element.

In a process cartridge having a latent-image-bearing member and a developing device having a developer-holding part and a developing member, at a vertical section which bisects in the process cartridge the surface of the latent-image-bearing member with which surface the developing member is brought into pressure contact, a developer agitation and transport member has at least two rotary agitation and transport members having rotating shafts falling at right angles with the vertical section. Where, at the vertical section, the area of the developer-holding part is represented by S1 and the area of the part corresponding to the movable region of the rotary agitation and transport member is represented by S2, the ratio of S2 to S1, S2/S1, is from 0.8 to 0.99; and the ratio of a long side Sa to a short side Sb, Sa/Sb, of a circumparallelogram having a minimum area in respect to the area S1 in the vertical section is from 1.5 to 3.0. The non-magnetic one-component developer contains at least a binder resin and a colorant and has a fluidity index of from 50 to 90 and a floodability index of from 45 to 96.

A toner is comprised of a binder resin, a colorant and a wax. The binder resin has a polycarbonate resin in an amount of from 0.1% by weight to 50.0% by weight and a resin other than the polycarbonate resin in an amount of from 50.0% by weight to 99.9% by weight, based on the weight of the binder resin. In molecular weight distribution as measured by gel permeation chromatography of tetrahydrofuran-soluble matter, the toner contains in an amount of 15.0% by weight or less based on the weight of the toner a component which has in its structure a repeating unit of the polycarbonate resin and is contained in components having a molecular weight of 1,000 or less.
