Abstract:
An electrostatic image developing toner includes toner particles that contain coloring particles containing a binder resin, a coloring agent and a releasing agent. The binder resin includes an amorphous resin and a crystalline polyester resin. The toner satisfies Relations (1) and (2). ΔH1 is the amount of heat absorption based on a melting peak of the crystalline polyester resin in a first heating step. ΔH2 is the amount of heat absorption based on a melting peak of the crystalline polyester resin in a second heating step. ΔH0 is the value of the amount of heat absorption based on a melting peak of the crystalline polyester resin in the second heating step, multiplied by the ratio of the crystalline polyester introduced in the electrostatic image developing toner. 0.43
Abstract:
The toner according to the present invention comprises a matrix phase composed of a vinyl resin, and domain phases composed of a non-crystalline polyester resin dispersed in the matrix phase, and a number-average domain diameter of the domain phases composed of the non-crystalline polyester resin is 30 to 150 nm. The toner satisfies relation represented by a specific requirement of the total area of the domain phases present in a surface layer area of the toner particle, and the total area of the domain phases present in areas other than the surface layer area, in a given cross-section of the toner particle.
Abstract:
To provide a toner for electrostatic charge image development which allows obtainment of excellent low temperature fixability and a document off-set resistance sufficiently and also inhibition of an excessive increase in glossiness of a formed fixed image, and a method for manufacturing the same.The toner for electrostatic charge image development includes toner particles containing a binder resin, a colorant, and a releasing agent, in which the binder resin contains at least an amorphous resin and an urethane modified crystalline resin including a crystalline polymer segment and an urethane polymer segment bound to each other, the urethane modified crystalline resin being non-compatible with the amorphous resin, and the amount of ionic dissociating group of the urethane modified crystalline resin is 5 to 20 mgKOH/g.
Abstract:
According to one implementation, a toner includes a toner mother particle and a convex portion on a surface of the toner mother particle. The toner mother particle includes at least a resin (1). The convex portion is formed from a resin particle including at least a resin (2). An average value of a length of a long side of the convex portion is within a range of 0.1 to 0.5 μm. A ratio between a Young's modulus of a non-convex portion of the toner mother particle (ER (1)) and a Young's modulus of a convex portion of the toner mother particle (ER (2)) is a value (ER (1)/ER (2)) within the range of 1.2 to 2.0.
