Disclosed is toner in which is used in an image formation process comprising the steps of transferring an image of toner formed on a photoreceptor onto a recording sheet, and removing any residual toner remaining on any of the photoreceptor, an intermediate transfer member and a secondary transfer member with a cleaning blade, the toner containing at least toner particles (A) and small particles (B), wherein the toner particles (A) have an average circularity of from 0.93 to 0.99 and a number-based median diameter (D50) of from 3.0 to 8.0 μm, the small particles (B) have an average circularity of from 0.70 to 0.92 and a number-based median diameter (D50) of from 0.15 to 0.60 times that of the toner particles (A), and the surface energy of the toner particles (A) is different from that of the small particles (B).

Disclosed is a production method of a two-component developer for developing an electrostatic image comprising a toner and a resin coated carrier having a porous magnetic core particle and a resin coated layer, wherein the porous magnetic core particle are composed of a porous ferrite material and have pit apertures on a surface of the particle, and the method comprises steps of blocking the pit apertures of the porous magnetic core particle with rubber particles by dry mixing of the porous magnetic core particle and the rubber particles, forming the resin coated carrier by forming a resin layer on the porous magnetic core particle whose pore openings have been blocked, and mixing the resin coated carrier and the toner.

An image forming method is disclosed, which includes steps of cleaning toner remaining on a photoreceptor surface by a cleaning blade which is arranged on counter direction to rotation direction of the photoreceptor, supplying a fatty acid metal salt onto the photoreceptor surface after the cleaning, spreading the supplied fatty acid metal salt on the photoreceptor surface by using a spreading blade which is arranged on trail direction to rotation direction of the photoreceptor, charging the photoreceptor by a charging member, exposing the photoreceptor to form a latent image, developing the latent image by a developer to form a toner image on the photoreceptor, and transferring the toner image onto an image receiving member by a transfer roller facing to the photoreceptor through the image receiving material, in which the toner comprises a binder resin and a colorant, in which the toner has a glass transition point of from 20 to 45° C. and the binder resin contains 50% or more of vinyl polymer resin by weight based on the whole weight of the binder resin.
摘要:
An objective is to provide a highly durable carrier for a developer which is capable of forming a high-definition image stably with no deterioration of a developing property since the carrier resistance and the charging ability remain stable even though the developer is used for a long duration; a method of manufacturing the carrier; and an image forming method employing the same. Disclosed is an electrophotographic carrier comprising a carrier core material and provided thereon, a resin-coated layer comprising charge control particles and low-resistive particles, wherein an initial carrier resistance is 5×108-3×1010 Ωcm; a concentration of the low-resistive particles grows higher toward a surface of the layer from an inner part of the layer; and a concentration of the charge control particles grows lower toward a surface of the layer from an inner part of the layer.

Disclosed is a manufacturing method of toner which includes at least polyester resin and colorant, comprising the steps of: (A) dissolving, into an organic solvent, the polyester resin and ultrahigh molecular weight styrene resin in which a peak is present in a range larger than 500 thousands and smaller than 3 million in a molecular weight distribution, and preparing a binder resin solution; (B) dispersing the binder resin solution as binder resin solution droplets into an aqueous medium; (C) removing the organic solvent from the binder resin solution droplets, and preparing a resin particle dispersion; and (D) aggregating resin particles from which the organic solvent is removed and colorant particles containing the colorant with each other, and forming toner particles.
