  • Patent number: 7288355
    Abstract: Provided are a carrier for electrophotography developers prepared by generating a slight amount of byproducts such as water, alcohol, etc, which carrier is free from release of a magnetic powder, has excellent mechanical strength and durability, and good environmental stability, and further can restrain occurrence of toner spent condition and has favorable fluidity and excellent capability of imparting charging to a toner, a two-component developer comprising the carrier and a method for forming an image using the developer. The carrier for electrophotography developers comprises a magnetic powder dispersed binder resin, the binder resin material comprises (A) a polysiloxane compound having an epoxy group as a functional group and (B) a polysiloxane compound having a group capable of ring-opening addition reaction with the epoxy group of the polysiloxane compound (A), and the binder resin is a silicone resin prepared by curing with ring-opening addition reaction of the epoxy resin.
