摘要:
Low fix temperature toners are fabricated by a two step melt mixing and reactive melt mixing process wherein there is initially prepared, for example, using a melt mixing device, a composite of pigment and resin, followed by crosslinking of the resin component at high temperature and high shear to produce a partially crosslinked toner with substantially no unpigmented gel domains. The toners are particularly suitable for high speed fusing, show excellent offset resistance and wide fusing latitude, and superior vinyl offset properties.
摘要:
A process for the preparation of encapsulated toners which comprises blending core momomer or monomers, free radical initiator, pigment, and an oil soluble shell monomer; dispersing the resulting mixture in a stabilized aqueous suspension; thereafter subjecting the stabilized droplets to a shell forming interfacial polycondensation reaction by adding a water soluble shell monomer or monomers; subsequently forming the core resin binder by heat induced free radical polymerization within the newly formed capsules; washing the toner suspension; subsequently removing water therefrom in a fluidized bed dryer to obtain a dry encapsulated toner with a surface moisture content of about 0.3 percent by weight to about 0.8 percent by weight; and thereafter blending the encapsulated toner with surface additives.

A process comprising:(a) reactive melt mixing of a base resin with a chemical initiator and crosslinking of said base resin to enable a highly crosslinked precursor resin, said highly crosslinked precursor resin being substantially free of sol, and comprising uncrosslinked portions and crosslinked portions, said crosslinked portions comprised of high density crosslinked microgel particles; and(b) accomplishing dilution by melt mixing said highly crosslinked precursor resin of (a) with a base resin to form a partially crosslinked toner resin, said toner resin being substantially free of sol, and comprising linear uncrosslinked portions and crosslinked portions, said crosslinked portions comprised essentially of high density crosslinked microgel particles, wherein said microgel particles are present in an amount of from about 1 to about 45 percent by weight of said toner resin.

摘要:
A low melt, high gloss toner resin with low minimum fix temperature, wide fusing latitude and wide gloss latitude contains a linear portion and 1 to 10 percent by weight of a crosslinked portion containing high density, crosslinked microgel particles, but substantially free of low density, crosslinked polymer. The resin is particularly suitable for high gloss applications, such as process color and color transparencies, and for high speed fusing, shows excellent offset resistance, wide fusing latitude, wide gloss latitude and superior vinyl offset properties. The resin may be formed by reactive melt mixing.
摘要:
A process for preparing an electrophotographic toner composition which comprises premixing a pigment and a charge control additive in the absence of a solvent, subsequently admixing the premixed pigment and charge control additive and a resin, and extruding the pigment, charge control additive, and resin. The pigment and the charge control additive may be premixed prior to being added to the extruder with the resin; alternatively, the pigment and charge control additive may be premixed by adding them to the extruder via an upstream supply means and extruding them, and subsequently adding the resin to the extruder via a downstream supply means.
摘要:
A method for making conductive toner particles includes (A) heat treating in fluidized bed processing equipment a mixture of non-conductive toner particles containing a thermoplastic resin and a colorant, and an effective amount of conductive powder blended with and coated on surfaces of the non-conductive toner particles, wherein the heat treatment is carried out at a temperature at or above the glass transition temperature of the resin for a period of time at least sufficient to fuse the conductive powder onto the surfaces of the non-conductive toner particles, and then (B) cooling the heated conductive toner particles to a temperature below the glass transition temperature of the resin. The final toner particles have a conductivity of at least about 10.sup.-8 ohm.sup.-1 -cm.sup.-1 and preferably from about 10.sup.-4 to about 10.sup.-8 ohm.sup.-1 -cm.sup.-1.
