Abstract: A process for the preparation of toner compositions which comprises mixing at least one resin monomer with a polymerization initiator, a crosslinking component and a chain transfer component; effecting bulk polymerization until partial polymerization to near the onset of the gel-effect has been accomplished thereby forming an organic phase containing a partially polymerized component; mixing the aforementioned partially polymerized component organic phase with pigment or dye particles; dispersing the resulting organic phase in water containing a stabilizing component whereby there is obtained a suspension of toner particles in water; and polymerizing the toner suspension by heating.

Abstract: Block copolymers of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, and R.sub.3 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl and aryl; k, j, m and n represent the number of repeating segments, and imaging members thereof.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of copper oxide superconductors which comprises (1) mixing copper nitride, an oxidizing agent such as barium peroxide, and yttrium oxide; (2) forming pellets of the aforementioned mixture; (3) heating the pellets; and (4) thereafter cooling the pellets. The process yields copper oxide superconducting compounds in a purity of from about 60 to over 95 percent.
