| 20090081575 | SINGLE COMPONENT DEVELOPER - A method for developing toner for use in a single component development system, wherein the process includes a) contacting a styrene acrylate polymer binder resin having a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of from about 50 to about 100 Kpse, and a number average molecular weight (Mn) of from about 10 to about 30 Kpse, a wax selected from the group consisting of polypropylene and polyethylene, and at least one colorant to produce a toner blend, b) aggregating the blend by heating at a temperature at or above the glass transition temperature of the styrene acrylate resin to form an aggregated toner core; c) adding a second binder resin to the aggregated toner core to form a shell over said toner core thereby forming a core-shell toner; d) growing said core-shell toner to a desired size; e) coalescing the core-shell toner by heating at a temperature above the glass transition temperature of the second latex; and f) recovering toner particles, wherein the toner particles have an onset glass transition temperature of from about 50° C. to about 60° C., and a circularity of from about 0.950 to about 0.990. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20090081576 | Toner compositions - The present disclosure provides processes for reducing the particle size of latex resins and toners produced with such resins. In embodiments, a carboxylic acid may be added to materials utilized to produce a latex in forming a seed resin or a master batch which, in turn, may be utilized to form latex resins and toner particles. In accordance with the present disclosure, one may be able to utilize materials for the production of latex resins and toners which may otherwise produce particles that are too large in the absence of the carboxylic acid. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20090123865 | TONER COMPOSITION HAVING FLUORINATED POLYMER ADDITIVE - A toner having a core with at least one resin and at least one colorant, and having physically attached on a surface thereof, an additive package including fluorinated polymer particles, and a method of forming toner particles having surface particles attached thereto, wherein the surface particles include fluorinated polymer particles, and the method includes aggregating a material with at least one resin and at least one colorant to produce toner particles, following aggregation, forming a mixture of the surface particles and the toner particles, and subjecting the mixture to a temperature above the glass transition temperature of the toner particles to coalesce the toner particles, whereby the surface particles become at least partially embedded within the surface of the toner particles. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090136863 | EMULSION AGGREGATION TONER HAVING ZINC SALICYLIC ACID CHARGE CONTROL AGENT - A toner for developing electrostatic images including emulsion aggregation toner particles with a styrene acrylate latex resin, at least one additive, at least one colorant, and a charge control agent comprising 3,5 di-tert-butylsalicyclic acid zinc salt. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090263740 | TONER COMPOSITIONS - The present disclosure provides processes for reducing the particle size of latex resins and toners produced with such resins. In embodiments, a gel latex may be formed as a seed particle and then utilized to form latex resins and toner particles. In accordance with the present disclosure, one may be able to utilize materials for the production of latex resins and toners which may otherwise produce particles that are too large in the absence of the gel latex. | 10-22-2009 |
| 20100313644 | NOVEL CHARACTERIZATION TOOLS FOR TONER ADHESION AND ADHESION DISTRIBUTION - A system, method and device for measuring toner performance by randomly applying a toner sample having toner particles to a substrate, and positioning the substrate such that a force may be applied to individual particles of the measuring toner.
