して定着する。 In electrophotography, an electrostatic latent image is first formed by utilizing the properties of photoconductors such as cadmium sulfide, polyvinylcarbazole, selenium, and zinc oxide. For example, applying a charge uniformly on the photoconductor layer,
Imagewise exposure is performed to form an electrostatic latent image, which is then developed with toner powder charged to the opposite polarity to that of the electrostatic latent image, and further transferred and fixed onto a transfer sheet as required.

つて著しく損なわれるという問題点がある。 The remaining toner on the photoreceptor is generally removed by bringing a cleaning member into contact with the photoreceptor, such as a blade cleaning method, a fur brush cleaning method, or a magnetic brush cleaning method. In this case, since the cleaning member is pressed against the photoreceptor with an appropriate pressure, the photoreceptor may be scratched or the toner may stick to the photoreceptor during repeated use. When a cleaning failure occurs, the resulting image shows dot-like or streak-like contamination, and is judged to be impractical for practical use. In order to avoid this phenomenon in which the toner fuses to the photoreceptor, it is known to add a friction-reducing substance to the toner. However, although this method is certainly effective in preventing cleaning failures such as toner sticking, it has the following problems.
In other words, conventionally known friction-reducing materials
In order to be effective under poor cleaning conditions such as low temperature and low humidity, a large amount of additive is required, which causes problems such as not being able to obtain clear images, and formation or adhesion on the surface of the photoreceptor due to repeated use. It becomes difficult to remove low electrical resistance materials such as paper dust and ozone adducts, and the latent image on the photoreceptor is significantly damaged by low electrical resistance materials, especially in high temperature and high humidity environments. be.

Although fusion can be prevented,
On the other hand, there are problems in that the sharpness of the image is significantly reduced, the latent image on the photosensitive plate is easily disturbed under high temperature and high humidity, there is a lack of stability during durability, and the photosensitive plate is easily damaged.

It is not effective. Also, below 0.05μm,
Since the surface of the toner is covered with ultrafine particles, the charging properties of the toner are impaired and no effect can be obtained. Also,

Examples of such non-magnetic inorganic fine powder include:
Alumina, titanium dioxide, barium titanate, magnesium titanate, calcium titanate, strontium titanate, zinc oxide, silica sand, clay, mica, wollastonite, diatomaceous earth, silicon carbide,
Examples include powders or particles of various inorganic oxide pigments, chromium oxide, cerium oxide, red iron, antimony trioxide, magnesium oxide, zirconium oxide, barium sulfate, barium carbonate, calcium carbonate, silica fine powder, etc., but titanate metal salts , silicon carbide, cerium oxide, and silica fine powder are particularly preferred.

れたトナーとなつている。 The developer composition of the present invention is more effective when combined with fine silica powder. That is,
This is thought to be because when ordinary polyvinylidene fluoride is used simultaneously with silica fine powder, the silica fine powder is embedded in polyvinylidene fluoride, but sufficient effects cannot always be obtained with silica fine powder. However, in the present invention, the silica fine powder is appropriately dispersed between the vinylidene fluoride polymer particles, and does not inhibit mutual fluidity, but rather enhances it, resulting in a toner with excellent oil lubricity and dispersibility. There is.
