摘要:
A method for preparing latex for a toner includes heating a mixture of distilled deionized water and poly (ethylene glycol)-ethyl ether methacrylate (PEG-EEM) with stirring, adding a monomer mixture, 1-dodecanethiol and an ester wax to the mixture, dispersing the mixture with ultrasonic vibration, adding potassium persulfate (KPS) to the dispersion and allowing to react for 4 to 6 hours, and allowing the reaction mixture to cool with stirring. The dry toner prepared by the method enables easy control over the molecular weight of latex, has superior durability and excellent low-temperature fixation, contains a small amount of wastewater and is composed of small-diameter particles, thus being suitable for use in high-definition printers.
