Abstract: The particulate material production method includes vibrating a particulate material composition liquid in a liquid column resonance chamber having at least one nozzle to form a standing wave in the particulate material composition liquid caused by liquid column resonance, so that droplets of the particulate material composition liquid are ejected in a droplet ejection direction from the nozzle so as to fly in a space in a flight direction; feeding a gas in a direction substantially perpendicular to the droplet ejection direction to change the flight direction of the ejected droplets; and solidifying the droplets in the space to produce a particulate material. The particulate material composition liquid includes at least a solvent and a component of the particulate material dissolved or dispersed in the solvent, and the nozzle is located at a location corresponding to an anitnode of the standing wave.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing toner is provided. In the method, toner constituents are dissolved or dispersed in an organic solvent to prepare a toner constituents liquid. The toner constituents liquid is degassed so that the toner constituents liquid includes dissolved oxygen in an amount of 3 mg/L or less. The toner constituents liquid is vibrated in a chamber having at least one nozzle to form a liquid column resonance standing wave in the toner constituents liquid. The toner constituents liquid is discharged from the nozzle disposed within an area including an antinode of the liquid column resonance standing wave to form the toner constituents liquid into liquid droplets. The liquid droplets are dried to solidify the liquid droplets into solid particles.
