<p>A novel resin is produced by polymerizing (a) styrene and/or a derivative thereof, (b) at least one monomer component selected from methacrylic acid, acrylic acid, a methacrylic ester and an acrylic ester, and (c) from 0.05 to 10 percent by weight, based on the total weight of the monomers, of a polybasic acid having 7 to 40 carbon atoms, an anhydride thereof or a lower (C1 to C6) alkyl ester thereof, the monomer component (b) containing at least one acrylic or methacrylic ester having hydroxyl or epoxy groups in at least equimolar amount to the component (c). The resin preferably has a softening point of 100 to 160 DEG C and a glass transition temperature of 50 DEG C or higher. It is useful as a binder resin for a toner composition.</p> |
