Abstract: A process for the preparation of emulsion aggregation toner particles with high pigment loading having a reduced number of wax protrusions on the surface of the toner particles and fewer coarse toner particles. The process includes the introduction of a wax having a molecular weight between about 500 and 2,500, or a blend of waxes having different a molecular weight between 500 and 2,500.

Abstract: A toner process involving mixing a colorant dispersion and a metal oxide with a latex emulsion comprised of polymer, water, and an anionic surfactant, adding a cationic coagulant followed by heating the mixture to a temperature below about the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the latex polymer particles to provide toner size aggregates comprised of polymer pigment and dye, heating above about the Tg of the polymer and isolating the resulting product.

Abstract: Disclosed is a toner comprising particles of a polyester resin, an optional colorant, and polypyrrole, wherein said toner particles are prepared by an emulsion aggregation process. Another embodiment of the present invention is directed to a ballistic aerosol marking process using the toner.
