Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はポリアニリン誘導体の遷移金属錯体からなる、電子写真複写機やレーザプリンタ等に使用される静電荷像現像用帯電制御剤、並びにそれを用いたトナー及び静電荷像の現像に用いるトナーに電荷を付与する電荷付与材に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
電子写真複写機等で使用される現像剤は、その現像工程において、例えば静電荷像が形成されている感光体等の像担持体に一旦付着せしめられ、次に転写工程において感光体から転写紙に転写された後、定着工程においてコピー紙面に定着される。その際、潜像保持面上に形成される静電荷像を現像するための現像剤として、キャリアとトナーとから成る二成分系現像剤およびキャリアを必要としない一成分系現像剤(磁性トナー、非磁性トナー)が知られている。
【0003】
トナーに要求される重要な特性の一つに帯電性が挙げられ、特にキャリアや現像槽の器壁との接触により正または負の適度なレベルの帯電を生じること、および、その帯電レベルが連続使用時や過酷な環境においても経時的にほぼ安定していることが要求される。
トナーへの帯電性付与は、樹脂または着色剤自体で行うこともできるが、それでは充分な帯電性が得られ難く、従来よりトナーに帯電性を付与するもの(帯電制御剤)として、正帯電性のニグロシン系染料、第4級アンモニウム塩、負帯電性の含金属モノアゾ染料、サリチル酸金属錯体、銅フタロシアニン顔料等をトナーに含有させて用いる方法が知られている。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、これらの従来の帯電制御剤は、帯電付与効果およびその他のトナーへの要求特性の面でいくつかの課題をかかえている。その1つには、トナーの安全性が挙げられる。従来の帯電制御剤、特に負帯電制御剤としては、付与する帯電レベルが高いという理由から、例えば、クロムの様な重金属を含有する含金属染料タイプがそのほとんどを占めている。トナーという極めて人体に近い場所で使用される物質の成分として、クロムの様な安全性に疑問のある金属の使用は避けるのが好ましい。そこで、本発明はクロムの様な安全性に疑問のある金属を含有しない新規な帯電制御剤、それを用いたトナー及び電荷付与材を提供する事を目的とする。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者等は上記の帯電制御剤の欠点を克服すべく、より安全で帯電付与性能に優れた化合物について鋭意検討を行った結果、特定の構造を有する金属錯体化合物が有用であることを見出し、本発明に到達した。
即ち、本発明の要旨は、前記一般式で示されるポリアニリン誘導体の遷移金属錯体からなる静電荷像現像用帯電制御剤、及び該帯電制御剤を用いた静電荷像現像用トナー及び電荷付与材に存する。

本発明の新規な金属錯体から成る静電荷像現像用帯電制御剤を用いた静電荷像現像用トナー及び電荷付与材は、安全性に優れ、かつ帯電性が良好で高品質な静電荷像現像用トナーおよび電荷付与材である。[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is a transition metal complex of the port Rianirin derivatives, for developing an electrostatic image charge control agent used in an electrophotographic copying machine or a laser printer or the like, as well as the toner used for developing the toner and electrostatic image using the same The present invention relates to a charge imparting material that imparts a charge.
[0002]
[Prior art]
The developer used in an electrophotographic copying machine or the like is once adhered to an image carrier such as a photoreceptor on which an electrostatic charge image is formed in the development process, and then transferred from the photoreceptor to a transfer paper in the transfer process. Then, it is fixed on the copy paper surface in a fixing step. At that time, as a developer for developing an electrostatic charge image formed on the latent image holding surface, a two-component developer composed of a carrier and a toner and a one-component developer not requiring a carrier (magnetic toner, Non-magnetic toners are known.
[0003]
One of the important characteristics required of toner is chargeability. In particular, contact with the carrier or the wall of the developer tank produces an appropriate level of positive or negative charge, and the charge level is continuous. It is required to be almost stable over time even in use or in harsh environments.
The chargeability can be imparted to the toner with a resin or a colorant itself. However, it is difficult to obtain sufficient chargeability, and positive chargeability has been proposed as a material that imparts chargeability to a toner (charge control agent). There are known methods in which a nigrosine dye, a quaternary ammonium salt, a negatively charged metal-containing monoazo dye, a salicylic acid metal complex, a copper phthalocyanine pigment, and the like are contained in a toner.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, these conventional charge control agents have some problems in terms of charge imparting effect and other characteristics required for the toner. One of them is toner safety. As conventional charge control agents, particularly negative charge control agents, metal-containing dye types containing heavy metals such as chromium occupy most of them because of the high charge level to be applied. It is preferable to avoid the use of a metal such as chromium, which is questionable for safety, as a component of a material used in a place very close to the human body as a toner. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a novel charge control agent that does not contain a metal such as chromium that has a question of safety, a toner using the same, and a charge imparting material.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to overcome the drawbacks of the above charge control agents, the present inventors have conducted intensive studies on compounds that are safer and excellent in charge imparting performance, and as a result, found that metal complex compounds having a specific structure are useful. The present invention has been reached.
That is, the gist of the present invention, the general electrostatic image developing charge control agent consisting of transition metal complexes of reportage Rianirin derivative represented by formula, and the charging control agent The toner and charge with It exists in the grant material.

EXAMPLES Hereinafter, although a synthesis example and an Example demonstrate this invention further in detail, this invention is not limited to a following example, unless the summary is exceeded.
In the following examples, “parts” simply means “parts by weight”.
Synthesis Example Ortho-toluidine (8.56 g) was added to a solution composed of 1 L (liter) of 1N aqueous hydrochloric acid and 400 ml of ethanol, and the resulting solution was cooled to -5 ° C. 1.8 g of ammonium persulfate was added to this solution. After continuing the reaction at −5 ° C. for 5 hours, the reaction solution was returned to room temperature, and the precipitate from the reaction solution was filtered to obtain a compound having ortho-toluidine as a repeating unit. After washing this compound with water, it was treated with 400 ml of a 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution for 2 hours, and then filtered and washed with water to obtain 6.5 g of a reaction product.
[0023]
6.5 g of the above reaction product and 4.7 g of vanadium (III) chloride were added to 500 ml of dimethylformamide to form a complex at room temperature. When the reaction product was filtered and dried, 5.9 g of a polyortho-toluidine vanadium chloride complex could be obtained. The results of infrared absorption spectrum measurement (IR) and elemental analysis of the complex thus obtained are shown below.
IR (KBr, cm -1 ): 3785, 3693, 3374, 1570, 1483, 1379, 1257, 1211, 1152, 1104, 999, 941, 805
Elemental analysis Measured value; H: 5.67, C: 59.04, N: 10.11, Cl: 13.71%
[0024]
Example-1
100 parts by weight of a styrene acrylic copolymer resin (Nippon Carbite Corporation; product number G-10) having an average particle size of 10 μm and 1 part by weight of the complex synthesized by the above synthesis example were placed in a coffee mill and stirred and mixed for 1 minute. . 1 part by weight of the sample thus prepared was mixed with 99 parts by weight of an iron powder carrier, and the charge amount with respect to the mixing time was measured by a suction blow method. Moreover, the same measurement was performed also about the styrene acrylic copolymer resin single which does not add a complex. The results are shown in Table 1 below.
[0025]
[Table 1]
Figure 0004136215
[0026]
As a result, the charge amount of the resin alone greatly increases with the mixing time, whereas the increase width is very small in the sample to which the complex is added, indicating that the chargeability is sufficiently controlled.
[0027]
Example-2
Polyester-based resin (FC-023 manufactured by Mitsubishi Rayon Co., Ltd.) 100 parts carbon black (MA-100 manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation) 4 parts Complex of synthesis example 2 parts The above materials are blended and kneaded, pulverized and classified, and the average particle size is 8. A 5 micron black toner was obtained. 5 parts of this toner and 95 parts of ferrite carrier (acrylic coat) having an average particle diameter of about 90 microns were mixed and stirred to prepare a developer. Next, when the developer was photographed on a copying machine using a negatively chargeable OPC (lamination system) as a photoconductor, a clear copy was obtained.
[0028]
Example-3
Example 2 was used except that styrene (St) / butyl acrylate (BA) copolymer resin (St / BA = 7/3, Sp = about 140 ° C.) was used instead of the polyester resin. When a developer was prepared and photographed, a good copy was obtained as in Example-2.
