PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a carrier suitable for use in a developer, and a process for manufacturing the carrier. SOLUTION: The carrier includes a magnetic core, and a polymeric coating over at least a portion of a surface of the core, the polymeric coating including a copolymer derived from a plurality of monomers including an aliphatic cycloacrylate and an acidic acrylate monomer. The polymeric coating is applied to the core as particles of a size from 40 nm to 200 nm in diameter, and the particles are fused to the surface of the carrier core by heating.
