20130288173 | TONER - Provided is a toner that has excellent low-temperature fixability, hot offset resistance, high image glossiness and fixing wraparound resistance, as well as high durable stability. The toner includes toner particles that contain a binder resin, a colorant and a wax, and fine inorganic particles on a surface of the toner particles, wherein the binder resin contains a polyester resin A and a styrene resin B, and a content ratio A/B of the polyester resin A and the styrene resin B is 85/15 or more and 98/2 or less based on mass, the styrene resin B has a weight average molecular weight Mw of a tetrahydrofuran soluble component of 2,000 or more and 5,000 or less, and the toner has been subjected to a hot-air surface treatment. | 10-31-2013 |
20130309603 | TONER - A toner having toner particles, each of which contains a binder resin and a colorant, wherein in viscoelastic properties of the toner as measured with a rotating flat plate rheometer at a frequency of 6.28 rad/sec:

20140329176 | TONER AND IMAGE FORMING METHOD - Provided is a toner that allows a transferred image to be stably output regardless of smoothness of a transfer material even under high-temperature and high-humidity environment or under low-temperature and low-humidity environment, that is excellent in cleanability for a transfer member even at the time of high-speed printing, and that causes less member contamination. The toner is a toner including toner particles each containing a binder resin and a wax, and silica fine particles on surfaces of the toner particles, wherein the silica fine particles have a number-average particle diameter of primary particles of 60 nm or more and 300 nm or less, a coverage rate of the surfaces of the toner particles with the silica fine particles is 15% or more and 95% or less, and the toner has a uniaxial collapse stress at a maximum consolidation stress of 10.0 kPa, of 2.5 kPa or more and 3.5 kPa or less. | 11-06-2014 |
20150086917 | TONER AND TWO-COMPONENT DEVELOPER - Provided are a toner and a two-component developer each of which: shows a small fluctuation in charge quantity and a small fluctuation in image density even under a high-temperature and high-humidity environment; and does not cause any member contamination even after endurance and hence can stably output an image. The toner and the two-component developer each have a feature in that positively chargeable strontium titanate fine particles are added to toner particles having fixed thereto negatively chargeable silica fine particles. | 03-26-2015 |
20150185650 | TONER AND TWO-COMPONENT DEVELOPER - Provided is a toner obtained by melting and kneading a binder resin containing a polyester resin A and a polyester resin B, a colorant, and a wax, in which in the resin A, the content of a polyhydric alcohol unit derived from an aromatic diol, the content of a polyhydric alcohol unit derived from an oxyalkylene ether of a novolac type phenol resin, and the content of a polyvalent carboxylic acid unit derived from an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid, which contains a straight-chain hydrocarbon having 4 or more to 16 or less carbon atoms as a main chain and has carboxyl groups at both of its terminals, fall within specific ranges, and in the resin B, the content of a polyhydric alcohol unit derived from an aromatic diol and the content of a polyvalent carboxylic acid unit derived from an aromatic dicarboxylic acid or a derivative thereof fall within specific ranges. | 07-02-2015 |
20150309443 | DEVELOPER REPLENISHING CARTRIDGE AND DEVELOPER REPLENISHING METHOD - Provided is a developer replenishing cartridge excellent in accuracy with which an image forming apparatus is replenished with a developer irrespective of a use environment even when the developer is in a consolidated state. The developer replenishing cartridge includes: a developer replenishing container and a developer, being removably mountable to a developer replenishing apparatus; in which: the developer replenishing container includes a pump portion that operates so that a state where the internal pressure of a developer containing portion is lower than the atmospheric pressure and a state where the pressure is higher than the atmospheric pressure alternately repeatedly switch with each other; and the developer contains toner having a uniaxial collapse stress at a maximum consolidation stress of 10.0 kPa, of 2.5 kPa or more and 3.5 kPa or less. | 10-29-2015 |
