Abstract: An electrostatic charge image developing toner comprises core particles formed by flocculating and fusion-bonding at least polyester resin particles containing wax and colorant particles, and a coating layer containing a resin formed over the core particles.

Abstract: An electrostatic latent image developing toner contains toner particles each of which has a shell layer on the surface of a core particle comprising at least a first binder resin having a softening point of less than 100° C., a second binder resin having a softening point of not less than 100° C. and a colorant, being applicable to a low-temperature fixing process, and making it possible to achieve conflict functions, such as a heat-resistant storing property, mechanical strength and charge environmental stability.

Abstract: A toner includes core particles containing a resin and a colorant, and a coating layer formed over the core particles. The coating layer includes at least one type of coating particles selected from the group consisting of wax-containing resin microparticles containing a resin and a wax, and colorant-containing resin microparticles containing a resin and a colorant, the coating particles fusion-bonded to the surface of the core particles.

Abstract: A toner including core particles containing at least a resin and a colorant and coated with a resin coating layer is provided. The core particles are formed by flocculating and fusion-bonding at least resin microparticles and colorant microparticles dispersed in fluid dispersion, while two or more coating layers are formed over the core particles. A wax is added to at least one of the coating layer(s) but for the outermost coating layer, and the core particles. A ratio d/r between an average thickness d of the overall coating layers and a volume average particle size r of the core particles is adjusted to 0.01 to 0.6.

Abstract: Disclosed is a reversible thermosensible recording medium comprising a base board, a rewritable thermosensible recording layer which contains a liquid crystal compound showing a cholesteric liquid crystal phase and is provided on the base board, and a protective layer which is provided on the recording layer and contains an ultraviolet curing resin and at least one of a lubricant and an ultraviolet stabilizer.

Abstract: The invention provides a modified protease such that a protease is coupled to a polysaccharide via a triazine ring. This modified protease is considerably stable, safe and active as compared with the conventional modified proteases and immobilized proteases. Therefore, cosmetic products containing this modified protease are less liable to undergo aging, easier to use and improved in effect on the skin.
