A two-component developer includes toner particles and carrier particles. The toner particles each include a toner mother particle and first resin particles. The carrier particles each include a carrier mother particle and second resin particles. An amount of the second resin particles is at least 0.010 parts by mass and no greater than 0.100 parts by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the carrier mother particles. The first resin particles and the second resin particles have a number average primary particle diameter of at least 40 nm and no greater than 100 nm and a blocking rate (measurement temperature: 160° C.) of less than 30% by mass. A difference in blocking rate between the first resin particles and the second resin particles is no greater than 5% by mass, and a difference in number average primary particle diameter therebetween is no greater than 5 nm.

A developer mix used in a dual component development (DCD) system is a mixture of toner particles and magnetic carrier particles, wherein the magnetic carrier particle is surface treated with a hydrophobized titania particle. The surface treatment with a hydrophobized titania particle may be selected from either a spherical, disk, or spindle shaped. Tribocharge of the toner and the toner charge stability across cartridge life or environments may be suitably modified by selecting a preferred size and shape of the hydrophobized titania.

This invention is directed to a method for manufacturing carrier core particles for electrophotographic developer containing iron, manganese, and calcium as a core composition. The method includes (A) a mixing step of mixing an iron-containing raw material, a manganese-containing raw material, and a calcium-containing raw material to prepare a mixture thereof, (C) a granulation step of granulating the mixture after the mixing step, and (D) a firing step of firing a powdery material, which is obtained by granulating the mixture in the granulation step, at a predetermined temperature to form a magnetic phase. The calcium-containing raw material is provided in a granular form, and primary particles of the calcium-containing raw material have a volume mean diameter of 1 μm or less.

Disclosed is a two-component developer containing toner particles and carrier particles. The number-average particle diameter of the toner particles MDt ranges from 3.5 to 5.0 μm. The MDt of the toner particles and the volume-average particle diameter of the carrier particles MDc are at a specific ratio, and spherical fine toner particles in the toner particles and fine carrier particles in the carrier particles exist at specific percentages.
摘要:
A method for providing a developer mix having tribocharge uniformity across varying temperature and humidity conditions is provided. A developer mix used in a dual component development (DCD) system typically is a mixture of toner particles and magnetic carrier particles. Tribocharge uniformity is achieved in the developer mix by performing the step of treating the surface of the magnetic carrier particles with surface additives before the magnetic carrier particles are mixed with the toner particles. Surface additives include but are not limited to silica, titania and alumina.
