As a technique related to these improvements, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 63-235964 proposes a technique for forming a coating by coating fluorine-containing resin on core material particles by dry coating.
However, the technique disclosed in this publication still has a problem that sufficient image density cannot be obtained when the surface potential of the photoconductor is low. In order to obtain a sufficient image density when the surface potential of the photoreceptor is low, it is effective to thin the fluorine-containing resin coating layer of the carrier. However, since the developer is subjected to mechanical stress when it is subjected to the development process, if the carrier is a thin film and the fluorine-containing resin coating layer is abraded even if the carrier is repeatedly used, the core material is immediately removed. It comes to be governed by the surface properties of the particles. There is a problem in that the triboelectric charge amount of the toner is reduced, toner scattering and fogging occur, and sufficient durability cannot be obtained. Especially, in the toner recycling system, the toner remaining without being transferred is scraped off by the cleaning section and returned to the developing device or the hopper to be repeatedly developed, so that the surface condition of the toner is changed, and this phenomenon is remarkable. Is.

The triboelectric charge amount of the toner is determined by the balance between "charge generation" and "charge leakage". In order to prevent the triboelectric charge amount of the toner from decreasing even when the fluorine-containing resin coating layer of the carrier is worn, it is necessary to suppress "leakage of charges" and increase "generation of charges". In order to achieve the former, the time constant of the toner must be reduced, and in order to achieve the latter, the difference between the work functions of the toner and the carrier must be increased. By adding a charge control agent to the toner, both effects are obtained, and it is effective in preventing a decrease in the triboelectric charge amount of the toner due to abrasion of the fluorine-containing resin coating layer of the carrier.

The powder volume resistance of the charge control agent is 10 8 to 10 13 Ωc

If it is 8 Ωcm or less, the powder volume resistance of the toner becomes too low, and along with this, the absolute level of the triboelectric charge amount of the toner decreases, and problems of toner scattering and fogging occur. On the other hand, if the powder volume resistance of the charge control agent is 10 13 Ωcm or more, the effect of reducing the time constant of the toner does not appear, and therefore, the triboelectric charge amount of the toner due to wear of the fluorine-containing resin layer of the carrier It cannot prevent a drop.

The surface potential of the photoconductor was adjusted to -580V. An actual copying test was conducted to form a copied image under the environmental conditions of a temperature of 20 ° C. and a relative humidity of 65%, and the triboelectric charge amount of the toner, the toner scattering, and the fogging were evaluated. The charge amount was measured by a known blow-off method, and the toner scattering was observed by visually observing the toner scattering condition inside the machine by putting a white tape inside the evaluation machine. The evaluation was "Good" when it was good, "Fair" when it was a little bad but at a practical level, and "Poor" when it was bad and practically problematic. Regarding fogging, the relative density of the white background portion of the copy image corresponding to the white background portion (reflection density 0.0) of the original was measured with a "Sakura Densitometer" (manufactured by Konica Corporation), and the relative humidity was less than 0.01. The case was designated as “◯”, the case of 0.01 or more and less than 0.02 was designated as “△”, and the case of 0.02 or more was designated as “x”. The results are shown in Table 4 below.
