RESINS FOR TONER OF ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHY AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

A resin for toner of electrophotography comprises a urethane-modified polyester resin (D) having a glass transition temperature ranging from 40 to 75.degree.C, which is obtained by reacting a resin mixture composed of a polyester resin (A) having a number-average molecular weight of 1,000 to 15,000 and a hydroxyl value of 10 to 100 and a polyester resin (B) having a number-average molecular weight ranging from 1,000 to 5,000 and a sum of acid value and hydroxyl value of less than 10, in a weight ratio of (A)/(B) ranging from 20:80 to 60:40, with 0.3 to 0.99 molar equivalent of an isocyanate compound (C) per one molar equivalent of hydroxyl group of the polyester resin (A). The resin for toner is excellent in grindability and storage stability and it provides toners for electrophotography having good anti-blocking properties and good fixing properties whereby good images free of fogging can be obtained.
