Description

A kind of color toner and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to the electrophotographic image forming technical applications, be specifically related to color toner that a kind of duplicating machine, printer use and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Color toner is that color laser printing, colored digital duplicate required crucial consumptive material, mainly is made up of resin, pigment, adjuvant etc.Along with infotech, network technology and office automation and development of modernization, and the popularizing of laser printer, laser digital duplicating machine, digital camera, and the direction to digitizing, colorize develops, and increasing for the demand of color toner, quality requirements is also more and more higher.
At present, the preparation method of color toner mainly contains two classes: physics method and chemical polymerization.The physics method, also claim " fusion method ", be that resin (being mainly the styrene-propene butyl acrylate copolymer), colorant (pigment or dyestuff), adjuvant (charge adjusting agent, mould release etc.) process are added operations such as hot milling, compressing tablet, mechanical disintegration, the qualified particle of sizing screening, obtain the color toner of the about 10um of granularity.Yet, this preparation method exists toner and is difficult for evenly disperseing in resin, the color toner grain size of preparation and defective such as the shape homogeneity is poor, particle diameter is bigger, cause printing, easy roll banding when duplicating, resolution are low, shade deviation, useless powder rate are higher, and in process of production, need carry out classification and handle, the technology more complicated, production cost is higher.Chemical polymerization prepares color toner and mainly comprises suspension polymerization and emulsion polymerization; Wherein, suspension polymerization can be controlled the size of toner particle effectively, and the flowing property of toner, charging performance are significantly improved, and can improve the stability of color toner photographic fixing, fixed performance, suppresses the print through phenomenon effectively.Makes printing, duplicating resolution and color and luster not good enough yet the weak point of " suspension polymerization " is the color toner broad particle distribution, color toner particle too circle causes remaining in the recovery of the color toner on the photoreceptor and cleans very difficult.At present, adopting maximum chemical polymerizations both at home and abroad is emulsion polymerization, adjustment by surfactant, shear rate can make powder granularity little of 5 μ m, its Size Distribution narrows down, can control the shape of powder effectively, thereby improve resolution and the color and luster of colour print, duplicating, the ink powder that the non-spherical structure of toner particles is conducive on the photoreceptor reclaims and cleaning.Zhou Xueliang, Zhang Weigang, employing emulsion polymerization in situ such as Zhou Dongliang are prepared printer, used in copy machines color toner, by choosing raw materials such as styrene, butyl acrylate, vibrin, polypropylene wax, AZO pigments, charge adjusting agent, azo-bis-isobutyl cyanide, surfactant and silicon dioxide, the color toner of making through steps such as reaction, separation, cleaning, drying and modification processing; But about the document of the research of surface modifier in emulsion polymerization and report seldom, particularly compound surface-treating agent was blended in it wherein equably in the emulsion preparation later stage, thereby improve liquidity and charging property, the quality of finally improving color toner rarely has report.
Summary of the invention
