摘要:
A fine powder of a hydrophobic metal oxide is provided which is produced through surface treatment of fine powder of a metal oxide with an epoxy compound and an alkylsilazane or ammonia thereby ring-opening the epoxy groups in the surface of the fine powder followed by introducing an amino group and an alkylsilyl group, or an amino group into the ring-opened epoxy groups. The fine hydrophobic metal oxide powder has good dispersability, flowability and electrification properties, and has good time-dependent stability. A toner composition for electrophotography that contains the fine hydrophobic metal oxide powder has stable and good imaging capabilities for a long period of time. Also provided is a method for modifying the surface of the fine metal oxide powder with a surface modifier, in which ammonia is introduced into the reaction system prior to the treatment of the fine powder with the surface modifier.
摘要:
A fine powder of hydrophobic titanium oxide, which, when added to toner powder, gives it high flowability and good electrification stability. The titanium oxide is prepared by hydrolyzing a volatile titanium compound while in a high-temperature vapor-phase condition, in the presence of a combustible or incombustible gas, and has a BET specific surface area of from 55 to 150 m2/g and an anatase/rutile crystal structure with a ratio of anatase falling between 0.3 and 0.98. It is processed for surface modification with a silane coupling agent and/or a silicone compound to produce a fine powder of hydrophobic titanium oxide.

Firstly, a powder matrix is kept in a fluent state, said powder matrix consisting of a first oxide having an absorbed water amount of 0.1 to 50%, an averaged particle diameter of 0.005 to 0.5 &mgr;m and a surface hydroxyl group number of 0.1 to 25 &mgr;mol/m2. Then, one or both of a halide and an alkoxide including metal or semi-metal identical with or different from the metal or semi-metal constituting said first oxide is allowed to contact with said powder matrix kept in the fluent state, by means of an inert carrier gas, and then they are heated at a temperature of from 25 to 800° C., to thereby coat said powder matrix by a coating layer consisting of a second oxide. Further, a reaction by-product consisting of one or both of a hydrogen halide or an alcohol generated by said contacting is heated at a temperature of from 200 to 1000° C. within the inert carrier gas to thereby eliminate the reaction by-product.
