Abstract: To provide a power conversion device that is effective for improving controllability of power in power conversion for multilevel voltage output. A power conversion device includes a switching circuit configured to supply a current to a motor by connecting and disconnecting a first point having a first potential, a second point having a second potential greater than the first potential, and a neutral point having a neutral potential between the first potential and the second potential to and from the motor, a neutral potential control unit configured to control the switching circuit in a manner to maintain the neutral potential within a target range, and a current control unit configured to increase a supply current to the motor without affecting a driving force generated by the motor at least when controlling the switching circuit 16 by the neutral potential control unit.

Abstract: A color toner for electrophotography comprises, at least, a binder resin, a colorant and an antistatic composition. The antistatic composition comprises as the main components: (A) at least one member selected from a compound containing an ether linkage(s) and/or ester linkage(s) and a (co)polymer containing an ether linkage(s) and/or ester linkage(s); and (B) a component obtained by treating a metal salt of an alkali or alkaline earth metal with a compound capable of adsorbing anions.
