| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a process for producing a toner for electrophotography which includes the steps of (A) forming resin-containing core particles having a volume median particle size (D50) of from 1 to 10 μm in an aqueous medium; (B) adding composite fine particles containing a polyester-containing resin and a charge control agent, or composite fine particles containing “fine particles of the charge control agent” and “fine particles of the polyester-containing resin”, to the core particles obtained in the step (A) to allow the composite fine particles to adhere onto the core particles, thereby obtaining “composite fine particle-adhering core particles”; and (C) heating the “composite fine particle-adhering core particles” obtained in the step (B), to obtain coalesced particles. There are provided a process for producing a toner for electrophotography having a small particle size and a narrow particle size distribution which is capable of allowing a charge control agent to exist on a surface of the toner; and a toner for electrophotography which is produced by the process and can exhibit excellent image-forming characteristics. |
