- An object of the present invention is to provide a toner that solves the above problems. Specifically, it is a magnetic toner that can provide a stable image density regardless of the usage environment, has excellent low-temperature fixing properties, has high coloring power with little image deterioration during fixing, and has low toner consumption. The task is to provide.
- the present inventors have specified the true specific gravity, the amount of magnetization, and the dielectric properties of the toner, By controlling the state, it was found that a magnetic toner having excellent low-temperature fixation and having stable charging characteristics over a long period of time, irrespective of the environment, could be obtained, and the present invention was completed.
- the present invention is as follows.
- the binder resin contains a polyester unit
- the toner has a weight average particle diameter (D4) of 5.0-9.0 / im,
- the toner contains 60% by number or more of toner having a circularity of 0.93 or more;
- tan 5 represents the dielectric loss tangent at the glass transition temperature (° C) of the toner + 10 ° C
- tan S represents a dielectric loss tangent at a glass transition temperature (° C) of the toner of 10 ° C. ]
- the toner is characterized in that an inorganic fine powder is externally added, and the inorganic fine powder contains at least two kinds of metal oxides having a number average particle diameter of 10 Onm or less (1).
- the magnetic toner according to any one of the above.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of a surface modification device used in the present invention.
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic view of the dispersion rotor in FIG. 1 as viewed from above.
- the magnetic toner of the present invention is a magnetic toner containing magnetic toner base particles containing at least a binder resin and a magnetic material,
- the binder resin contains a polyester unit
- the toner has a weight average particle diameter (D4) of 5.0-9. O / im,
- the toner contains 60% by number or more of toner having a circularity of 0.93 or more;
- the present invention relates to a magnetic toner, wherein the dielectric loss tangent (tan S) at 100 kHz of the toner satisfies the following expression (1).
- tan S represents a dielectric loss tangent at a glass transition temperature (° C) of the toner of 10 ° C. ]
- the value of the dielectric loss tangent is an index that indicates the degree of charge retention. It has been used. The lower this value is, the higher the charge retention ability is, and the toner can be.
- the value of the induced tangent is used as an index indicating the stability of the charging characteristics of the toner in an electric field.
- an index that quantitatively indicates the rate of change in the charging characteristics when the environment changes during the development process from the toner carrier to the latent image carrier specifically when the temperature, humidity, and applied bias change.
- the value of the dielectric loss tangent is used.
- the research by the present inventors has yielded a finding that the rate of change of the dielectric loss tangent before and after the glass transition temperature of the toner has a high correlation with the change in the charging characteristics due to the change in the development environment.
- the value of the dielectric loss tangent is mainly affected by the dispersion state of the colorant in the toner, and particularly in the case of a magnetic toner, mainly by the dispersion state of the magnetic substance.
- the value of the dielectric loss tangent becomes low by improving the dispersibility of the magnetic material.
- the value of the dielectric loss tangent tends to increase as the temperature increases, and this change increases particularly as the amount of added magnetic material decreases.
- the development stability index is used by using the change rate between the dielectric tangent before and after the glass transition temperature of the toner, that is, the normal state and the weak tangent state.
- the dielectric loss tangent (tan ⁇ ) of the toner may satisfy the above formula (1), and more preferably satisfy the following formula (2).
- tan S represents a dielectric loss tangent at a glass transition temperature (° C) of the toner of 10 ° C. ]
- the reason why the frequency is set to 100 kHz as a reference for measuring the dielectric loss tangent is that the frequency is suitable for verifying the dispersion state of the magnetic material. If the frequency is lower than 100 kHz, the influence of the glass transition temperature of the binder resin becomes large, and the rate of change of the dielectric loss tangent before and after the glass transition temperature becomes too large, making it difficult to determine the dispersion state of the magnetic material. On the other hand, when the frequency is higher than 100 kHz, the rate of change of the dielectric loss tangent becomes too small, and it becomes difficult to see the influence of the dispersibility of the magnetic material. When the rate of change of the dielectric loss tangent (tan ⁇ -tan ⁇ ) / tan ⁇ becomes larger than 0.20, the toner
- the charging characteristics are greatly affected by environmental fluctuations such as temperature, humidity and development conditions, it is important that the charging characteristics be 0.20 or less.
- the magnetic material is reduced in particle size, the particle size distribution of the magnetic material is controlled, the magnetic cohesion is suppressed by performing a mechanical treatment after the synthesis of the magnetic material, and the magnetic material is coated with an inorganic or organic material. Improvements from a magnetic material such as improving fluidity can be given. In addition to the raw material mixing step in the production of the toner, the improvement by the mixing step such as reducing the particle size of the binder resin and the release agent and lengthening the mixing time may be mentioned.
- a method of adjusting the kneading temperature to be equal to or higher than the softening point of the binder resin to control the viscosity of the melt, and adjusting the cooling method of the kneaded melt can be mentioned. Also, the above methods may be combined.
- the shape of the toner in order to obtain more stable charging ability.
- Several power effects can be obtained by making the toner closer to a true sphere, that is, by increasing the circularity.
- it is easier to obtain a uniform charge distribution which reduces the change in charge by reducing the so-called selective image, which consumes selective charge components due to environmental fluctuations and repeated use. It is possible to do.
- the amount of fine powder generated by crushing is reduced, so that contamination of the toner carrier by the fine powder can be suppressed. It becomes possible.
- By performing such shape control it is possible to obtain a toner having more stable charging characteristics by achieving both the control of the dielectric characteristics described above.
- the above effect can be obtained by including a certain percentage or more of the number of particles having a relatively high circularity of 0.93 or more in the circularity distribution of the toner.
- the toner has a toner circularity distribution in a range of 0.93 or more, more than 60% by number, more preferably more than 75% by number. If the amount is less than the above range, phenomena such as a decrease in charge amount and contamination of the developing sleeve will be caused during repeated use over a long period, and problems such as a decrease in image density are likely to occur.
- the true specific gravity of the magnetic toner is 1.3 to 1.7 gZcm 3
- the saturation magnetization at a magnetic field of 796 kA / m is 20 to 35 Am 2 / kg.
- the true specific gravity is greater than 1.7 g / cm 3 or the saturation magnetization is greater than 35 Am 2 / kg, then in such a case, the fact that the magnetic substance is contained in a relatively large amount may result in multiple magnetic cohesion. As a result, excessive toner is likely to be developed, causing problems such as image deterioration at the time of fixing and an increase in consumption, and low-temperature fixing property also decreases.
- the true specific gravity is less than 1.3 g / cm 3 or the saturation magnetization is less than 20 Am 2 / kg, in such a case, the content of the magnetic substance is often low in many cases. The spike forming ability is too low, and image quality is likely to deteriorate. In addition, the rate of change of the dielectric loss tangent becomes too large, and the change in charging characteristics due to the environment becomes large.
- the content of the magnetic substance is preferably 25 to 70 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the binder resin, but is preferably 45 to 65 parts by mass. More preferred.
- the magnetic toner of the present invention has a weight average particle diameter (D4) adjusted to 5.0-9.0 / im in order to faithfully develop minute latent image dots and achieve high image quality. Is done. In the case of a toner having a weight average particle diameter of less than 5.mu.m, the amount of magnetic powder contained in one toner particle is reduced, resulting in an increase in capri, which is undesirable. On the other hand, when the weight average particle diameter of the toner exceeds 9. ⁇ , since the reproduction of one dot is deteriorated, it is difficult to achieve high image quality.
