Abstract:
A toner comprises a toner particle comprising a core particle comprising a resin component, a shell coating the surface of the core particle, and a polyvalent metal. The resin component comprises a polyester resin, and the shell comprises an amino resin; in an electron image of a cross section of the toner acquired using a transmission electron microscope, a polyvalent metal content P(M) obtained by energy-dispersive x-ray analysis at the core/shell interface and in the vicinity of this interface is 0.0010 to 2.00 atomic %; and the surface storage elastic modulus of the toner at a load of 30 μN at 25° C., according to nanoindentation measurement of the toner, is from 6.50 GPa to 12.00 GPa.
