  • Publication number: 20070243480
    Abstract: Carrier includes a mixture of carrier particles. The mixture may contain first carrier particles containing carrier cores that are coated with a polymer coating, the coating containing polymer and conductive particles, and second carrier particles containing carrier cores that are not coated with a polymer coating. The mixture may contain carrier particles having a conductivity of at least about 5×10?8 (ohm-cm)?1 and carrier particles having a conductivity of less than about 1×10?8 (ohm-cm)?1.

  • Publication number: 20070202428
    Abstract: Carrier core is coated with a coating containing polymer formed in the Presence of a surfactant and conductive particles coated with conductive polymer. The carrier may be formed by forming polymer particles by polymerization in the presence of a surfactant; dry-mixing carrier cores with a powder comprising the polymer particles and conductive particles coated with conductive polymer; and heating the mixture to fuse the powder to the surface of the cores.

  • Publication number: 20060292478
    Abstract: Carrier particles comprise a core and a polymer coating that comprises a mixture of polymethyl methacrlyate (PMMA) and melamine. The coating compositions comprise from about 60 to about 80 percent by weight of PMMA and from about 20 to about 40 percent by weight of melamine. The carriers may be combined with a toner to provide a developer suitable for use in an electrostatographic process. Carriers comprising the PMMA/melamine coatings exhibit increased triboelectric charging, a more conductive carrier, and also contribute to reducing toner cohesion.

  • Publication number: 20060222994
    Abstract: Coated carrier particles are provided for use in developer compositions for electrophotographic imaging. The coated carrier particles include a carrier core and a resin coating that includes first and second polymer components. The coated carrier particles exhibit stable triboelectric charging during aging, decreased coating hardness, higher coating coverage, and an improved resilience to toner impaction.

  • Publication number: 20050250031
    Abstract: A developer includes black toner particles and carrier particles, the black toner particles including at least one binder, at least one black colorant and one or more external additives, wherein the toner particles comprise from about 7 to about 15 pph of the developer, and wherein the toner particles exhibit a triboelectric charge of from about ?25 to about ?50 ?C/g at toner particle concentrations of about 7 to about 15 pph of the developer. The developer is ideally suited for use in a high speed (greater than 100 prints per minute) semiconductive magnetic brush development apparatus. Preferably, the black toner particles include a styrene acrylate binder, and the external additives include from about 1.3 to about 2.1% by weight of the toner particles of a first silica having an average particle size of from about 35 to about 45 nm, from about 0.5 to about 1.0% by weight of the toner particles of a second silica having an average particle size of from about 135 to about 160 nm, and from about 0.
