<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a carrier and a developer which ensure less consumption of a toner component and exhibit stable charging property in long-term use, even when a toner containing a low-softening component is used. <P>SOLUTION: The carrier for electrostatic latent image development comprises core particles and a resin covering layer and satisfies formula (1), Vc≤0.011×Dc+1.615, and formula (2), 7≤Cc≤50, wherein Dc is the particle diameter (μm) of the carrier; Vc is the bulk density (g/cm<SP>3</SP>) of the carrier; and Cc is reduced weight percentage (%) of the carrier after heat treatment. The developer for electrostatic latent image development includes the carrier and a toner. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
