摘要:
A toner having good dispersibility of a pigment and a release agent therein and having excellent low temperature fixability is provided. The toner includes a binder resin, a pigment and a release agent, and the binder resin includes a graft polymer in which abietic acids and an unsaturated fatty acid are grafted to a vinyl resin. An image is formed using such a toner.

摘要:
A toner has columnar particles manufactured through: a kneading step of melt-kneading toner raw materials including at least binder resin, colorant and a release agent to prepare a kneaded product; a spinning step of extruding the kneaded product from orifices disposed at the tip of a spinning nozzle to prepare a fibrous kneaded product; and a pulverizing step of cutting or pulverizing the fibrous kneaded product, the toner matrix particles each having an aspect ratio of 0.5 to 5.0 and a dB/d50 value of 0.5 or above and contain an external additive composed of large particles and small particles having a volume average particle size smaller than that of the large particles, as well as to provide each of the columnar particles with each having 10 or less reentrants whose apertures have a longer length in a minor axis thereof than a radius of the respective large particles.
摘要:
A method of manufacturing a toner for developing static charges in an aqueous system is provided which includes preparation step for a resin kneaded product, preparation step for the aqueous dispersion of a less water-soluble alkaline earth metal salt, preparation step for synthetic resin particles, removal step for the less water-soluble alkaline earth metal salt, and separation-cleaning-drying step. At preparation step S3 for synthetic resin, an ionic material for decomposing the less water-soluble alkaline earth metal salt is admixed with a mixture of the resin kneaded product and the aqueous dispersion of the less water-soluble alkaline earth metal salt.
摘要:
A kneaded material obtained by heating and melt-kneading a toner composition and a water-based medium containing water are put into a container of a granulating apparatus, and heated by a heater while agitating, to disperse the kneaded material into the water-based medium in its softened state. A temperature at which a loss tangent value of the kneaded material reaches a predetermined loss tangent value A, specifically, 0.5 or more and less than 5.0, is inputted to a granulating temperature input section as a setting granulating temperature T1. The heater is then controlled by a control section so that a granulating temperature as a temperature of the water-based medium measured by a thermometer reaches the setting granulating temperature T1 inputted to the input section. Accordingly, the granulating temperature as a temperature of the water-based medium, and thus a temperature of the kneaded material in the water-based medium is adjusted to T1.
