Synthetic example -A

[0138] 40 g of commercially available trifluoropropyltrimethoxysilane (Z-6333CAS No.429-60-7, manufactured by ダウケミカル company) was dissolved in 200 g of ethanol solvent.

[0139] Then, commercially available (Tika Corporation MT150) titanium dioxide with a water-soluble content of 0.31% was dispersed in toluene, so that the solid content concentration was 37%, and the diameter of the beads was 0.5mm. After pulverizing in a bead mill (bead mill NVM-2 type manufactured by AIMEX Co.) for about 2 hours to obtain particles with an average particle size of 0.047 μm (measured with NIKKISOmicro trackUPA-150), weigh 630 g.

[0140] Furthermore, the silane solution and the toluene solvent in which titanium dioxide was dispersed were mixed, and transferred to a 1 L four-necked flask set in an oil bath. Use a mixer to stir and shoot at 60 rpm to reach 60°C while reacting for 6 to 7 hours, and raise the temperature to 80°C. At this time, the amount of ethanol and toluene was collected from the ...

Synthetic example -B

[0143] Commercially available trifluoropropyltrimethoxysilane (Z-6333 from Toray) and methyltrimethoxysilane (Z-6366 from Toray) were dissolved in 200 g of methanol at an equivalent ratio of 40 g.

[0144] Then, commercially available (Tika Corporation MT150) titanium dioxide with a water-soluble content of 0.31% was dispersed in toluene, so that the solid content concentration was 37%, and the diameter of the beads was 0.5mm. After pulverizing in a bead mill (bead mill NVM-2 type manufactured by AIMEX Co.) for about 2 hours to obtain particles with an average particle size of 0.047 μm (measured with NIKKISOmicro trackUPA-150), weigh 630 g.

[0145] Furthermore, the silane solution and the toluene solvent in which titanium dioxide was dispersed were mixed, and transferred to a 1 L four-necked flask set in an oil bath. Use a mixer to stir and shoot at 60 rpm to reach 60°C while reacting for 6 to 7 hours, and raise the temperature to 80°C. At this time, the amount of ethanol and tol...

Synthetic example -D

[0148] Commercially available trifluoropropyltrimethoxysilane (Z-6333 from Toray) and methyltrimethoxysilane (Z-6366 from Toray) are dissolved in a mixture of 190g methanol solvent and 10g water in an equal ratio of 40g in. After the liquid was left in a laboratory at 25°C for a day and night, a cloudy liquid that could not be observed in Synthesis Examples-A to C was observed, and the surface treatment was performed in the same manner as in Synthesis Examples-A to C.

[0149] When the vaporization reaches 90% of the amount of solvent used in the prescription, the set temperature is raised to 130°C to 140°C to check the temperature rise in the tank. When the rise slows down, the pressure can be reduced. When the temperature in the tank exceeds 110°C, the pressure reduction is stopped, and the calcination is carried out for about 6 hours. At this time, the sample was sampled and it was confirmed that the Rt peak due to the silanization reaction disappeared. Regarding the judgmen...

Abstract

The invention provides a titanium dioxide external additive which is capable of being controlled stably, maintaining frictional charging amount, having less ambient variation, maintaining stable frictional charging performance, and which is free from abnormal images resulted from attachment of a toner to a photoreceptor that is generated while image developing and subjected to a surface modification treatment. The invention also provides an electrostatic charge images developing toner that is externally added with the external additive and an image forming method using the electrostatic charge images developing toner. The inventive external additive has the characteristic that particle surface of titanium dioxide having a water-soluble component of more than 0.2% is modified by the fluorosilane compound.
