The present invention relates to a carrier for developing electrostatic images. Generally, in electrophotography, electrostatic recording, etc., toner, which is a colored fine powder, and carrier are used to develop an electrostatic image formed on an image support made of a photoconductive photoreceptor or dielectric material. The following developer is used. The toner that makes up this developer is
During the conveyance process, the toner rubs against the carrier and a charge of the opposite polarity to that of the electrostatic charge image is induced in the toner, and during the development process by the developer, the toner electrostatically adheres to the image support and forms a visible image. is formed. Therefore, the toner in the developer in the developing device is consumed each time development is performed, but the developing device is replenished with new toner accordingly, so that the toner in the developing device is constantly renewed. However, the carrier, which is initially prepared, is used repeatedly over a long period of time, and as a result, the characteristics of the carrier deteriorate as development is repeated. For example, a portion of the toner may become fused to the carrier surface, resulting in so-called spent toner, which may reduce the triboelectric charging properties of the carrier, or may reduce the desired effect in image quality adjustment performed by applying a bias voltage to the developer. Therefore, good development cannot be achieved. Furthermore, inorganic powder or granules are generally used as they are as carriers, but if their surface conditions are hydrophilic, the moisture resistance of the developer decreases, making it impossible to achieve good development. As a means to solve the above problems,
For example, it is possible to use inorganic particles as a carrier core material and form a coating layer made of a resin with excellent triboelectric properties with toner on its surface.
This is disclosed in JP-A No. 27879, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 13954-1984, and the like. According to the so-called coating carrier having such a resin coating layer, deterioration of the characteristics of the developer due to spent toner adhering to the carrier surface can be suppressed to some extent. However, developers using conventional resin-coated carriers have the disadvantage that during the process of flowing in the developing device, they collide with the container wall, causing the resin coating layer to be missing from the carrier surface, resulting in deterioration of the carrier's performance. . Therefore, as described in JP-A-55-33109, for example, a layer of a silane coupling agent such as alkyltrialkoxysilane and tetraalkoxysilane is provided on the surface of the magnetic material in advance, and a resin coating layer is further provided on the surface of the magnetic material. There are also attempts. However, with this method, the silane coupling agent is highly hydrolyzable, resulting in reduced moisture resistance and durability, and the low reactivity of the silane coupling agent to magnetic materials reduces the coating strength of the coating layer. Furthermore, there is a drawback that it is difficult to control the charge polarity. As described above, the reality is that no carrier that is fully satisfactory for practical use has been found at present. The present invention has been made based on the above-mentioned circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a resin coating layer that does not cause toner adhesion and has little deterioration in characteristics. It is an object of the present invention to provide a carrier for developing electrostatic images that is firmly bonded to an inorganic carrier core material, exhibits little deterioration in characteristics even after long-term use, and is capable of achieving good development. Another object of the present invention is to provide a carrier for developing electrostatic images that has excellent moisture resistance and allows easy control of charging polarity. The above-mentioned object is achieved by forming a coating layer of a compound represented by the following general formula and a resin on the surface of a carrier core material to form a carrier for developing an electrostatic image. general formula Here, R 1 : Hydrogen atom, substituted/unsubstituted alkyl group, or substituted/unsubstituted alkenyl group R 2 : Substituted/unsubstituted alkyl group or substituted/unsubstituted alkenyl having 9 to 17 carbon atoms. It is the basis. In order to produce the carrier for developing electrostatic images of the present invention, (1) a method of treating an inorganic carrier core material with a compound represented by the above general formula (hereinafter referred to as "compound") and then applying a resin coating layer. (2) A method of coating an inorganic carrier core material with a resin containing the above compound. (3) It is possible to use a method such as coating an inorganic carrier core material with a monomer containing the above compound and polymerizing the monomer. To explain in detail, in the case of method (1), a carrier core material is treated with the above-mentioned compound to obtain a treated core material, and a solution in which a coating resin is dissolved in a solvent is applied to the treated core material using, for example, a fluidizing bed device. It can be applied to the material and allowed to dry, or it can be similarly applied with a monomer that provides a coating resin and polymerized. Also in the case of methods (2) and (3), known means can be used as the coating means. According to method (1), as schematically shown in FIG. 1, the coating layer 2 formed on the outer surface of the carrier core material 1 includes the compound layer 2A and the resin layer
It is made of a laminate with B and has particularly excellent moisture resistance and durability. According to method (2) or method (3), as shown in FIG. 2, the coating layer 2 is made of a resin containing the above compound, which has the advantage of being particularly easy to manufacture. In the present invention, the carrier core material has a particle size of 30
~1000 microns, preferably 30-200 microns, such as sand, glass, or cobalt, iron, copper, nickel, ferrite, zinc, aluminum, brass,
Metals such as metals, alloys thereof, or oxides thereof, which are conventionally used as carrier core materials, can be used, but in reality, they are appropriately selected according to the developing method employed.

The amount of coating of the compound and the coating resin must be within an appropriate range; if the amount of coating of the compound is too large, the compound will precipitate, resulting in poor adhesion of the coating layer to the carrier core material. becomes small, and the fluidity as a developer decreases, resulting in poor conveyance. The preferred coating amount is such that the compound is in the range of 0.01 to 5% by weight and the coating resin is in the range of 0.1 to 10% by weight based on the total amount of the carrier. Further, two or more of the above compounds may be used in combination. Furthermore, the glass transition temperature of the coating resin is at least
The temperature is preferably 60°C. If the glass transition temperature is low, the resin will become sticky when heat is generated due to friction between the carriers or between the carrier and the wall of the developing device, resulting in poor fluidity.
