Abstract: An emulsion polymerization process comprising polymerizing monomer in an emulsion in a reaction vessel at a first temperature to form a resin; cooling the reaction vessel to a second temperature that is above the softening point of the resin yet below the temperature required for significant depolymerization reaction to occur; and adding water to the cooled reaction vessel in an amount sufficient to effect phase inversion with mixing for a sufficient time to form an aqueous latex emulsion in the absence of a surfactant.

Abstract: A toner process that includes a first heating of a colorant dispersion, a first polyester resin free latex emulsion, a second polyester latex emulsion, and a wax dispersion in the presence of a coagulant containing a metal ion; adding a third polyester free latex; adding an organic sequestering compound or a silicate salt sequestering compound, followed by a second heating.

Abstract: Toner particles comprise resin, wax and optionally colorants, and the wax is substantially excluded from the interior core of the toner particles. Processes for preparing such toner particles comprise providing an aqueous dispersion of resin particles and optionally colorants, mixing the aqueous dispersion in presence of a coagulant, aggregating to form particles, coalescing to form fused particles, and removing the fused particles from the aqueous dispersion. Wax dispersions can be added either after mixing or during aggregation, so that wax is excluded from the core of the toner particles.

Abstract: Toner compositions include a non cross linked resin; a cross linked resin or gel; a wax; and a colorant. Processes for preparing a toner include mixing a non-cross linked resin and a cross-linked resin or gel in the presence of a wax, a colorant, and a coagulant to provide toner size aggregates; adding additional non-cross linked latex to the formed aggregates thereby providing a shell over the formed aggregates; heating the shell covered aggregates to form toner; and, optionally, isolating the toner.

Abstract: A toner includes particles of a resin, an optional colorant, a first wax and a second wax, where the toner particles are prepared by an emulsion aggregation process. Additional waxes can also be added for different properties.

Abstract: A toner including particles of a resin, an optional colorant, and a crystalline wax, where the crystalline wax is selected from aliphatic polar amide functionalized waxes, carboxylic acid-terminated polyethylene waxes, aliphatic waxes consisting of esters of hydroxylated unsaturated fatty acids, high acid waxes, and mixtures thereof, is prepared by an emulsion aggregation process.

Abstract: A toner includes particles of a resin, an optional colorant, and an acid-containing crystalline polymeric wax, where the acid-containing crystalline wax is selected from carboxylic acid-terminated polyethylene waxes, high acid waxes, and mixtures thereof, and where the toner particles are prepared by an emulsion aggregation process.

Abstract: A toner includes particles of a resin, an optional colorant, a first crystalline polymeric wax and a second crystalline polymeric wax, where the first crystalline polymeric wax is a crystalline polyethlene wax, the second crystalline polymeric wax is selected from aliphatic polar amide functionalized waxes, carboxylic acid-terminated polyethylene waxes, aliphatic waxes consisting of esters of hydroxylated unsaturated fatty acids, high acid waxes, and mixtures thereof, and the toner particles are prepared by an emulsion aggregation process.

Abstract: A wax emulsion comprised of polyethylene wax and one or more surfactants in an aqueous medium, wherein the polyethylene wax has a degree of crystallinity of from about 50% to about 80% by weight of the polyethylene wax, is provided. The wax emulsion is made by emulsifying the polyethylene wax, one or more surfactants and an aqueous medium in a vessel at a temperature at or above the melting point of the polyethylene wax to form an emulsified product, and subsequently cooling the emulsified product to ambient temperature at a cooling rate of at least 10° C. per minute. The wax emulsion is preferably incorporated into toner particles prepared by emulsion/aggregation/coalescing.

Abstract: A toner containing a mixture of a sulfopolyester resin, a colorant and an alkyl amide.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of toner by, for example, mixing a colorant, a latex, and a coagulant comprising cationic wax dispersion to provide, for example, a toner composition of high gloss images.
