Abstract: Toner compositions have a post-blended particulate additive which comprises aluminum oxide and aluminum hydroxide with, optionally, a third component such as silica or a wax, which is a tribo-charging additive which, upon tribo-charging of the toner particles, shifts the charge distribution in either the positive or negative direction. As well as providing toner compositions having adequate fluidity, the use of pre-extrusion charge-control additives can be avoided. There are also advantages, for example, in terms of charge distribution characteristics, stability of charge distribution, and avoidance of matting effects. Developer compositions are formed by admixture with suitable carrier particles.

Preferably, the particles of film-forming material in base composition A have a d(v,50)<5 ?m.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a process for the preparation of a toner powder, in which particles of one or more toner base compositions are combined into larger particles. The toner base compositions may be in the form of dry powders, e.g., manufactured by jet milling or by freeze drying powder dispersions. In that case, the combination of the toner base compositions into larger particles may be done by, e.g., mechanofusion. The toner base composition may also be in the form of an aqueous emulsion or dispersion. In that case, the combination of the base compositions into larger particles can be effected by spray-drying the emulsion or dispersion. In a preferred embodiment, the toner base composition in aqueous form is prepared via phase inversion emulsification, which preferably is carried out in an extruder.
