Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention relates to a liquid developer which contains at least toner particles containing a binder resin (A) and a release agent (B), and a carrier liquid (C), wherein the toner particles also contain a compound represented by general formula (1) shown below: R1-(O-A1)n-OH??General formula (1): wherein n represents a natural number from 1 to 120, R1 represents a hydrocarbon group of 1 to 100 carbon atoms, and A1 represents an alkylene group of 2 to 4 carbon atoms.

Abstract: A liquid developer, which can stably and continuously produce high-quality images without carrier liquid bleeding and which can further provide excellent anti-cold-offset property and fixability. The liquid developer comprises at least: a toner particle comprising a binder resin (A) and a colorant (B); and a carrier liquid (C); wherein the binder resin (A) has an acid value within the range of 20 to 40 mgKOH/g, and the carrier liquid (C) is a non-aromatic hydrocarbon comprising an isoparaffin, wherein the carrier liquid (C) has an initial boiling point within the range of 200 to 250° C. and a dry point within the range of 300 to 450° C., and the difference between the dry point and the initial boiling point is 80 to 200° C.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a white liquid developer that contains at least white toner particles containing a titanium oxide (A) as a pigment and a binder resin (B), a basic polymeric dispersant (C), and a carrier liquid (D), wherein the titanium oxide (A) is a titanium oxide that has been surface-treated with alumina and an organic compound, and the binder resin (B) has a solubility parameter (SP value) of 10 to 13.
