Industrial Fields of Application The present invention is applicable to electrophotography, electrostatic recording, electrostatic printing
No. 5, etc., relates to a magnetic toner for a two-component developer for developing an electrostatic latent image. In conventional extraction electrophotography, a photosensitive material such as selenium is used as a photoreceptor, an electrostatic latent image is formed using various means, and this electrostatic latent image is developed with a magnetic brush. Generally, a method is adopted in which toner is attached using a method or the like and the image is visualized. In this development process, carrier particles called carriers are used to impart an appropriate amount of positive or negative electrolyte to the toner and transport it to the development area. However, in the above-mentioned development process, the electrostatic attraction with the carrier is insufficient, resulting in toner scattering and adhering to the periphery of the developing area, or when transferring the toner image formed on the photoreceptor onto transfer paper. , it adheres to areas that should remain blank (), causing problems such as deterioration of image quality. In order to solve this problem, a magnetic toner has been proposed that uses a carrier as a magnetized carrier to magnetically hold the toner and reduce toner scattering. Problems to be Solved by the Invention When developing using conventionally proposed magnetic toners,
This magnetic toner visualizes the electrostatic latent image on the photoreceptor due to electrostatic attraction, and then the (-)-image on the photoreceptor is transferred onto transfer paper, fixed, and used as a reinforcement. becomes. The photoreceptor then needs to be cleaned to form the electrostatic latent image again, but the instability of this cleaning process is likely to cause image deterioration over time. That is, due to the highly hard magnetic powder in the magnetic toner, the surface of the photoreceptor becomes depressed/1. If the toner is scratched or scratched, or the toner is likely to bleed in the scratched area. Furthermore, even if the toner does not become stuck, cleaning failures tend to occur over time, resulting in image deterioration. It is effective to supply a lubricant to the surface of the photoreceptor to prevent damage to the surface of the photoreceptor due to toner powder.
Each prevents scratches and reduces surface flaws. For this reason, the same volume of toner occurs and uniform leaning is possible, but when using magnetic 1 to 1.1 l
i. It was difficult to select a lubricant and the desired improvement could not be obtained.
On the other hand, it is easy to cause image deterioration such as S" It is necessary to improve the above-mentioned problems caused by the 1 ['' target (well, the seagull from the IR), 1N, and the like, in other words, to uniformly remove the remaining 6t1 henna on the surface of the photoreceptor.

[Magnets that can be cleaned, are less likely to cause deterioration of one photoreceptor or one-to-ner fixation on the surface layer, and have little image deterioration:
/I To provide toner. Means for Solving the Problems The above objects of the present invention are achieved by adding a low-force rm lubricant that is solid at room temperature and has a film-forming ability as a magnetic and non-external additive. The present invention will be described in detail below.The binder resin, which is one of the essential components of the magnetic [--I- Commonly used λF! Noshino is used. In addition, as for the other essential components, any known magnetic material such as iron, magnetite, etc. can be used. The blending ratio of the magnetic powder to the total toner is preferably 3 to 40% by weight. If the blending ratio is lower than 3%, it will cause stains due to toner scattering from the developing area, and
Zero weight mold? If the amount increases, the movement of toner from the porcelain carrier to the photoreceptor is inhibited, resulting in the problem that a high-density bee image cannot be obtained. The magnetic toner of the present invention can be formed by melting and kneading the above-mentioned essential components, but other colorants such as carbon black may also be mixed therein. The average particle diameter of the magnetic lhenner is preferably set to 5 to 50 μm (preferably 7 to 30 μm). On the other hand, the low molecular weight lubricant added as an external additive is a substance that is solid at room temperature and has a film-forming ability, and has a melting point of 6 or 6.
Preferably, the temperature is 0°C or higher. For example, substances such as fatty acid esters, fatty acid esters and their metal salts, fatty acid amides, high alcohols, natural and synthetic paraffins, and substances that have low molecular weight and are solid at room temperature are used. Ru. Specifically, examples include methylene bisstearin core amide 1~, valmitic acid amide, etc., and they can be used alone or in combination.
These low molecular weight lubricants are preferably added in the form of a fine powder with a particle size of 30 mm or less, preferably 10 mm or less. These low-molecular omega lubricants are different from the gold standard of Tona.
It is preferable to add 'r'' in the range of o, oi to 5 @ skew% 7J[1, and the cleaning effect is shown well in this range. External addition 7JD to the magnetic toner can be performed by various methods. However, the direct mixing method using a mixer or Henschelmitcer is an easy and effective method. In the present invention, the low molecular weight lubricant At the same time, it is also possible to use other fine powders as external additives and L-U for the purpose of toner charge control or to improve fluidity. Attachment 7
10), even if the powder is hard, such as an inorganic fine powder, it can be used without any problem. Various inorganic substances such as silica, aluminum, titania, silica, magnesia, etc.
In addition to fine resin powder, all other fine powders known in this field can be used. The magnetic toner of the present invention (1) is used as a two-component developer by mixing with Ki V rear. Any known carrier can be used, such as iron powder, ferrite powder, etc. , Also (stains, etc. magnetic powder with acrylic,
6) Only those coated with pyridine-based, pyrrolidone-based, or fluorine-based resins, and those made of magnetic powder hardened with resin are available. Magnetic J ~ Lunar of the present invention, as described above, to external addition 11
Since it contains a lubricating layer on the surface of the photoreceptor, it forms a lubricating film on the surface of the photoreceptor due to its solid low molecular weight at room temperature, which has a film-forming ability of 1℃. Alternatively, it is possible to prevent the adhesion of particles 1 to 1 and make it possible to carry out cleaning efficiently. Therefore, white spots and fog appear in the bee image, and
The ability to stably copy images over a period of 1↓ is the best. Examples Styrene-acrylic resin ()ln=5,000S)1w=50,000)

A toner was prepared (Toner A>). To the above toner Δ, 0.3% by weight of fine powder of medilene bis-jalamide was added and mixed in a V-type general-purpose machine (Toner B). Fine powder of Takasaka Furcoal with a molecular age of about 400 was added to O64 weight φ% and mixed in a mold mixer (toner C) a.
- Toner D). Each of these toners A, B, C, and D78-1 was mixed with ferrite powder having an average particle size of 70 JuR to prepare a developer. As an electrophotographic photoreceptor, a charge generation layer is formed of chlordiane blue and polymethyl methacrylate, and a charge transport layer serving as a surface layer is formed of a compound represented by the following formula and polycarbonate 1 to 1 (manufactured by Yakudai II, Panlite 1300). > Copying was carried out many times using an electrophotographic page restoration machine (modified FX3500, manufactured by Fuji Xerox (+1)) to evaluate image quality maintenance.Cleaning was performed using a polyurethane material. A blade method using a blade was adopted.The results obtained were as follows.In the test using 1 to Gner A, image quality deteriorated due to poor cleaning after 5,000 sheets, and 12 On the other hand, in tests using toners B and C, even after 50,000 sheets, black spots in the form of spots were observed.
Cleaning was stable and there was no deterioration in image quality. In addition, in a test using Toner D, 10.000
When projecting one image, toner contamination was observed around the developing machine. Effects of the Invention In the present invention, since a low molecular weight lubricant which is solid at room temperature and which determines the film forming ability is used as an external additive, toner is unlikely to stick to the photoreceptor and is always uniform. Excellent effects such as being able to perform cleaning, preventing deterioration of the photoreceptor, and therefore being able to obtain high-quality bee images over a long period of time are produced.
