20080318141 | METHOD OF PREPARING TONER AND TONER PREPARED USING THE METHOD - A method of preparing toner, the method including preparing a latex for a core by polymerizing a composition for a core including a macromonomer having a hydrophilic group, a hydrophobic group and at least one reactive functional group, at least one polymerizable monomer, and a wax; agglomerating the latex for a core by adding a pigment dispersion dispersed by the macromonomer and an inorganic salt to the prepared latex for a core; and coating the agglomerated latex for a core using a latex for a shell layer, wherein the latex for a shell layer is prepared by polymerizing a composition for a shell layer including at least one polymerizable monomer, a macroinitiator having polydimethyl siloxane units, and a macromonomer, and toner prepared according to the method. | 12-25-2008 |
20080318151 | Preparation method of latex for toner and preparation method of toner from the same - 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. | 12-25-2008 |
20090017394 | Hollow toner and process of preparing the same - Hollow toner and a process of preparing the same are provided. The hollow toner has a hollow sphere shape, wherein an outer layer surrounding the hollow sphere includes a polymer, a wax and a pigment. The hollow toner has excellent fixing properties under low energy and low pressure, and can be efficiently used at high-speed fixing. Also, a small amount of the hollow toner is consumed. Thus, the hollow toner can be efficiently applied to various apparatuses of forming an image such as a two-component low-temperature printer and super high-speed printer, and the hollow toner can be prepared by using a relatively simple process. | 01-15-2009 |
20090023087 | HYBRID TONER AND METHOD OF PREPARING THE SAME - A hybrid toner includes micro cylinders, cores inserted into the micro cylinders, and an external addition layer covering the micro cylinders to which the cores are inserted. The hybrid toner prevents a toner blocking phenomenon, image contamination, and low storage stability which occur due to dispersion of wax and colorants to an outer surface of the toner. | 01-22-2009 |
20090053630 | METHOD OF PREPARING TONER AND TONER PREPARED USING THE METHOD - A method of preparing toner, the method including: preparing latex particles for a core which contain wax by polymerizing a toner composition comprising at least one polymerizable monomer and a macromonomer having a hydrophilic group, a hydrophobic group, and at least one reactive functional group; mixing the latex particles for a core with a self-dispersable pigment dispersion and adding an inorganic salt thereto to prepare a primarily agglomerated toner; and coating latex particles for a shell layer on the primarily agglomerated toner. In addition, a toner prepared using the preparation method, a method of forming image using the toner, and an image forming apparatus using the toner. Accordingly, pigments can be uniformly dispersed even without using an emulsifying agent and a dispersant, and thus images that are uniformly transferred can be obtained, and toner with long-term storage and excellent durability can be prepared. | 02-26-2009 |
