A test apparatus to evaluate the electrical properties of a liquid toner in which a printing quality of the liquid toner may be predicted by evaluating the electrical properties of the liquid toner without performing printing. The test apparatus to evaluate the electrical properties of a liquid toner includes a roller, a conductive flat panel positioned below the roller to move a predetermined distance in contact with the roller, a power supply device applying a voltage to the roller and the conductive flat panel, and a voltage tester provided at the rear of the roller to move together with the roller, testing a voltage of the liquid toner arranged on the conductive flat panel.

A toner for electrophotography is provided including a binder resin, a colorant, a charge control agent, and a release agent, wherein a glass transition temperature (Tg) is over 55° C., a molecular weight distribution (MWD) is in the range of about 4.5 to 5.5 when a weight average molecular weight is in the range of about 45,000 to 55,000, and a compression elastic modulus is about 750 MPa or higher at room temperature. Mechanical properties of toner can be obtained at room temperature by controlling rheological properties of toner. The developing properties and fixing properties of toner for electrophotography can be improved by lowering viscosity at a high temperature, and thus image quality can be stabilized.

A toner for electrophotography is provided that includes a binder resin, a colorant, a charge control agent, and a releasing agent, wherein the toner has a complex viscosity (η) of about 4.0×101 Pa·s to about 1.6×103 Pa·s at a temperature ranging from about 40° C. lower than a toner fixing temperature to about 10° C. higher than the toner fixing temperature and has a specified activation energy of 15 to 85 KJ/mol. By defining viscosity dependency in a linear modulus region of a toner and comprehensively defining thermal and rheological properties with respect to fixing conditions, a fixing phenomenon can be generalized and the quality of a toner can be evaluated.

摘要:
A composition for an overcoat layer suitable for use in an organophotoreceptor for liquid toner, an organophotoreceptor manufactured by employing the composition and an electrophotographic imaging apparatus containing the organophotoreceptor. Since the organophotoreceptor can maintain higher charge potential and low residual or discharge potential, the lifetime of the organophotoreceptor can be extended. Also, since the organophotoreceptor has good solvent resistance and abrasion resistance, it can be advantageously used for liquid toner.

摘要:
A multi-layered electrophotographic positively charged organic photoconductor includes a conductive substrate, a charge transport layer formed on the conductive substrate, and a charge generating layer formed on the charge transport layer. A composition to form the charge transport layer includes at least one hole transport material, a binder resin and an organic solvent, and a composition to form the charge generating layer includes a charge generating material, a binder resin, an organic solvent and a hole transport material. An organic photoconductor has improved static electrical properties by controlling interfacial conditions of the charge transport layer and the charge generating layer. The charge generating layer may be readily coated on the charge transport layer. In addition, the organic photoconductor has excellent electric properties such as an improved sensitivity and a low discharge voltage.
