Recently, triiron tetroxide pigments have come to be widely used as materials for one-component high-resistance magnetic toners for dry type electronic copying machines. In particular, in order to improve the development characteristics, the magnetic toner is required to have a high specific resistance, a suitably small particle size, and a well-defined particle size distribution.

As a result of repeated studies to solve these drawbacks of triiron tetroxide pigments, the present inventor has developed a method for producing triiron tetroxide, which is synthesized from an aqueous iron salt solution.
By adding a hydroxosilicate solution or a hydroxoaluminate solution when the Fe ++ /Fe +++ ratio is between 10 and 1.0, even triiron tetroxide pigments with small particle diameters can have excellent thermal stability. It has been found that a triiron tetroxide pigment can be obtained which maintains a black hue suitable for practical use and has a uniform particle size distribution that is advantageous for dispersion in resins.

That is, the present invention provides Fe obtained by adding an equivalent or more aqueous alkali solution to a ferrous salt solution such as ferrous sulfate.
In a method for producing spinel triiron tetroxide by passing air through an aqueous solution containing (OH) 2 colloid at a temperature range of 60°C or higher, preferably 80 to 95°C, Si/Fe 3 O 4 Or 0.5 to 3.0 in terms of Al/Fe 3 O 4
By adding a hydroxosilicate solution or a hydroxoaluminate solution of 105 to 110% by weight, a triiron tetroxide pigment with excellent thermal stability and uniform particle size distribution is produced, and the salts are then removed by washing with water. This is a method to obtain granular black triiron tetroxide particle powder by drying at ℃. The size of the produced triiron tetroxide can be adjusted relatively to the particle size selected from the range of 0.03μ to 0.5μ by selecting and controlling the pH value during the reaction from a value of 7.5 or higher. Another feature of this manufacturing method is that it can be easily adjusted.

Regarding the timing of adding the hydroxosilicate solution or the hydroxoaluminate solution, it is advantageous to add it when the Fe ++ /Fe +++ ratio in the reaction solution is 10 to 1.0. If the Fe +++ ratio is added at an early stage of 10 or less, the growth of magnetite particles is generally inhibited, making it difficult to adjust the particle size, resulting in poor particle size distribution, and poor hue. Furthermore, those added when the Fe ++ /Fe +++ ratio was 1.0 or later had large variations in oxidation stability.
