摘要:
A process for the preparation of emulsion aggregation toner particles with high pigment loading having a reduced number of wax protrusions on the surface of the toner particles and fewer coarse toner particles. The process includes the introduction of a wax having a molecular weight between about 500 and 2,500, or a blend of waxes having different a molecular weight between 500 and 2,500.
摘要:
Toner compositions include a non cross linked resin; a cross linked resin or gel; a wax; and a colorant. Processes for preparing a toner include mixing a non-cross linked resin and a cross-linked resin or gel in the presence of a wax, a colorant, and a coagulant to provide toner size aggregates; adding additional non-cross linked latex to the formed aggregates thereby providing a shell over the formed aggregates; heating the shell covered aggregates to form toner; and, optionally, isolating the toner.
摘要:
A wax emulsion comprised of polyethylene wax and one or more surfactants in an aqueous medium, wherein the polyethylene wax has a degree of crystallinity of from about 50% to about 80% by weight of the polyethylene wax, is provided. The wax emulsion is made by emulsifying the polyethylene wax, one or more surfactants and an aqueous medium in a vessel at a temperature at or above the melting point of the polyethylene wax to form an emulsified product, and subsequently cooling the emulsified product to ambient temperature at a cooling rate of at least 10° C. per minute. The wax emulsion is preferably incorporated into toner particles prepared by emulsion/aggregation/coalescing.

摘要:
A process including blending a latex emulsion of resin, water, and an ionic surfactant, a colorant dispersion comprised of a colorant, water, and an ionic surfactant; and a wax dispersion comprised of wax, water and an ionic surfactant, heating the resulting mixture in the presence of coagulants, one of which is a source of calcium ions, which heating is below about the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the latex resin and subsequently heating above about the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the latex resin.
摘要:
Toner compositions provide a resin substantially free of cross linking; a cross linked resin; a wax; a coagulant; and a colorant; wherein the toner composition provides a fused image gloss of about 1 to about 20 gloss units.

Embodiments include a chemical toner composition having a first resin including a styrene vinyl copolymer and having a Tg of from about 46 to about 56° C., b) a second resin including a styrene vinyl copolymer having a Tg of from about 55 to about 65° C., c) a distilled wax having a heat of crystallization and a heat of enthalpy, both from about 1.0 to about 4.0 J/g for every weight percent of the wax used in the chemical toner composition, and wherein the wax has a peak melting point of from about 70 to about 99° C., and d) a colorant, wherein the chemical toner has a gloss of from about 30 to about 80 GGU.
摘要:
A process for the preparation of toner including(i) blending an aqueous colorant dispersion with a latex blend comprised of a linear polymer and a soft crosslinked polymer;(ii) heating the resulting mixture at about below, or about equal to the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the linear latex polymer to form aggregates; and(iii) subsequently heating said aggregate suspension about above, or about equal to the Tg of the linear latex polymer to effect fusion or coalescence of said aggregates.
摘要:
A process for the preparation of toner comprising blending an aqueous colorant dispersion and a latex emulsion containing resin; heating the resulting mixture at a temperature below about the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the latex resin to form toner sized aggregates; heating said resulting aggregates at a temperature above about the Tg of the latex resin to effect fusion or coalescence of the aggregates; redispersing said toner in water at a pH of above about 7; contacting the resulting mixture with a metal halide or salt, and then with a mixture of an alkaline base and a salicylic acid, a catechol, or mixtures thereof at a temperature of from about 25.degree. C. to about 80.degree. C.; and optionally isolating the toner product, washing, and drying.
