Abstract:
A positively chargeable toner comprising a resin binder, a specified compound represented by the formula (I), and a higher fatty acid with a long-chain alkyl group having 8 to 22 carbon atoms and/or a metal salt thereof. The positively chargeable toner is a positively chargeable toner used for the development of a latent image formed in electrophotography, electrostatic recording method, electrostatic printing method or the like.
Abstract:
The present invention describes a process for preparing a toner mixture comprising mixing a first toner with at least one further toner wherein the first toner has an acid value of from 0.1 to 30 mgKOH/g and comprises at least one binder resin and at least one coloring agent wherein said binder comprises as the main component a polyester resin and wherein the further toners comprise at least a binder resin and optionally at least one coloring agent. It also describes a developer composition comprising said toner mixture and optionally a carrier. The new toner mixture does not show any de-mixing phenomenon during repeated use.
Abstract:
A composition for moderating the growth of graminaceous plants is disclosed which comprises at least one component as an effective ingredient selected from the group consisting of sulfonates and sulfuric esters having the formulaR.sup.1 --SO.sub.3 Mwherein R.sup.1 represents an alkyl or alkenyl group having 8 to 20 carbon atoms, an alkylaryl group containing an alkyl group of 8 to 20 carbon atoms, the residue of succinic acid esters represented by the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 represent an alkyl group of 1 to 18 carbon atoms or an alkylaryl group containing an alkyl group of 1 to 18 carbon atoms, or the group R.sup.4 O wherein R.sup.4 represents an alkyl group of 8 to 20 carbon atoms or an alkylaryl group containing an alkyl group of 8 to 20 carbon atoms; and M represents an agriculturally acceptable organic or inorganic salt.
