20090004589 | Toner and Process for Producing the Same - The present invention provides toner containing core particles prepared by mixing and aggregating in an aqueous medium at least a first resin particle dispersion in which first resin particles are dispersed, a colorant particle dispersion in which particles of colorant are dispersed and a wax particle dispersion in which particles of wax are dispersed. The colorant contains carbon black having a DBP oil absorption of 45 to 70 (ml/100 g) and the wax contains a wax having an endothermic peak temperature (referred to as melting point Tmw1 (° C.)) according the DSC method of 50 to 90° C. It is thus possible to prepare toner that has a small particle size and a sharp particle size distribution without requiring a classification process and that can prevent transfer void and toner scattering during transfer and obtain high transfer efficiency. The present invention provides also a method for producing the toner. | 01-01-2009 |

20090053640 | TONER AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING TONER - A toner is obtained in an aqueous medium by dispersing second resin particles into a core particles dispersion including at least first resin particles, and fusing the second resin particles with core particles. A second resin particle dispersion in which the second resin particles are dispersed is added after adjusting the pH value in the range of HS+2 to HS−5, where HS represents the pH value of the core particle dispersion in which the core particles are dispersed, so that toner particles have a volume-average particle size of 3 to 7 μm, a content of the toner particles having a particle size of 2.52 to 4 μm in a number distribution is 10 to 75% by number, the toner particles having a particle size of 4 to 6.06 μm in a volume distribution is 25 to 75% by volume, and the toner particles having a particle size of not less than 8 μm in the volume distribution is not more than 5% by volume. Thus, the toner can have a smaller particle size and a sharp particle size distribution without requiring a classification process. Moreover, the toner or a two-component developer can achieve a longer life and suppress transfer voids or scattering during transfer. | 02-26-2009 |
20090233203 | TONER AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME - The present invention provides a toner comprising core particles that contain at least first resin particles, colorant particles, and wax particles, in an aqueous medium, wherein the core particles contain nucleus particles in which the first resin particles and the colorant particles are aggregated and particles in which the first resin particles and the wax particles are aggregated. Accordingly, the treatment time for forming the core particles can be shortened, generation of colorant particles or wax particles that are not aggregated but suspended in a liquid can be suppressed, and particles having a small particle size and a sharp particle size distribution can be formed without classification, by suppressing an increase in the size of core particles. | 09-17-2009 |
20090253065 | TONER, PROCESS FOR PRODUCING TONER, AND TWO-COMPONENT DEVELOPING AGENT - A toner or two-component developer is provided. The toner includes toner base particles obtained by mixing in an aqueous medium a first resin particle dispersion, a colorant particle dispersion, and a wax particle dispersion, aggregating the mixed dispersion to form core particles at least part of which is melted, adding a second resin particle dispersion to a core particle dispersion in which the core particles are dispersed, and fusing the second resin particles with the core particles by heating. A GPC measurement of the second resin particles shows that the number-average molecular weight (Mn2) is 9000 to 30000, the weight-average molecular weight (Mw2) is 50000 to 500000, and the ratio (Mw2/Mn2) of the weight-average molecular weight (Mw2) to the number-average molecular weight (Mn2) is 2 to 10. The wax particles include at least a first wax and a second wax. An endothermic peak temperature (melting point Tmw1) of the first wax based on a DSC method is 50° C. to 90° C. The relationship between an endothermic peak temperature (melting point Tmw2) of the second wax based on the DSC method and Tmw1 is expressed as 5+Tmw1 (° C.)≦Tmw2 (° C.)≦50+Tmw1 (° C.). | 10-08-2009 |
20100104971 | TONER, METHOD FOR PRODUCING TONER, TWO COMPONENT DEVELOPER, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - First toner of the present invention includes colored particles and an external additive. The colored particles are produced by heating and aggregating a mixture that includes a resin particle dispersion in which first resin particles are dispersed and a pigment particle dispersion in which pigment particles are dispersed, so that at least part of the first resin particles is melted. The colored particles have a finely roughened surface. Second toner of the present invention includes aggregated particles including at least first resin particles and pigment particles, and colored particles having a finely roughed surface formed by fusing at least part of wax and at least part of second resin particles on the surface of the aggregated particles. Third toner of the present invention includes aggregated particles including at least first resin particles and pigment particles, and colored particles having a finely roughened surface formed by fusing at least part of third resin particles and at least part of fourth resin particles on the surface of the aggregated particles. When the aggregated particles are formed in an aqueous medium, the pH is controlled in the specified range. The toner can achieve oilless fixing that prevents offset without using oil while maintaining high OHP transmittance. Therefore, it is possible to eliminate the spent of toner components on a carrier and to make the life longer. Moreover, thinning or scattering during transfer can be suppressed, thus ensuring high transfer efficiency. | 04-29-2010 |
