preparation example Construction

[0124]The preparation method of the specific silica particles is not particularly limited as long as the method can obtain silica particles having an average particle diameter of 70 nm to 400 nm, a specific gravity of 1.0 to 1.9, and an average circularity of 0.5 to 0.9. For example, specific silica particles can be produced by a method using water glass as a raw material to obtain a silica sol; or a so-called wet method in which a silicon compound typified by alkoxysilane is used as a raw material And form particles by sol-gel method.

[0125] However, for the dry method of producing silica particles by calcining silica followed by pulverization and classification, the specific gravity of such silica particles generally exceeds 1.9, and thus cannot be considered from the viewpoint of specific gravity. Specific silica particles are produced. On the other hand, for the method of forming particles by a sol-gel method using a silicon compound typified by alkoxysilane as a raw ma...

Abstract

The invention provides an electrostatic image developing toner, including toner particles containing colored agent colorant and binder resin, and external addictive arranged on the toner particles, wherein, the external additive contains silicon dioxide particles, the average particle diameter of a primary particle of the silicon dioxide particles is in the range of 70nm-400nm, the distribution index of the average particle diameter of the primary particle is in the range of 1.0-1.9, and the average roundness is in the range of 0.5-0.9. By adopting the electrostatic image developing toner, the non-uniform distribution of the silicon dioxide particles on the developing toner particles is inhibited, and the image showing the inhibition of the generation of color spots is acquired. The invention further relates to an electrostatic image developer containing the toner, a toner cartridge, a process cartridge, an image forming apparatus, and an image forming method.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a toner for developing an electrostatic image, a developer for an electrostatic image, a toner cartridge, a process cartridge, an image forming device, and an image forming method. Background technique [0002] Generally, in electrophotography, an image is formed through a plurality of steps including: electrically forming a latent image by various means on a photoreceptor (electrostatic latent image holding member) using a photosensitive material; The developer of the agent develops the formed latent image to form a developed image; the developed image is transferred to a transfer-receiving medium such as paper, optionally by means of an intermediate transfer material; , heating and pressurization, etc. to fix the transferred image. [0003] In an image formed through these steps, problems such as a change in fixed image density or a part of toner particles adhering to a non-image area may arise due to long-term use o...
