Abstract:
A magnetic carrier includes a magnetic material-dispersed resin core containing at least a magnetic material and a binder resin. The surface of the magnetic material-dispersed resin core is coated with a coating material containing at least a fluorine resin and 1 to 40 parts by weight of fine particles based on 100 parts by weight of the fluorine resin. The coating material is in an amount of 0.3 to 4.0 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the magnetic material-dispersed resin core. The magnetic carrier has a contact angle of 95 to 125 DEG . A two-component developer is also provided which makes use of the magnetic carrier.
Abstract:
A magnetic coated carrier suitable for constituting a two-component type developer for use in electrophotography is composed of magnetic coated carrier particles comprising magnetic coated carrier particles comprising magnetic carrier core particles each comprising a binder resin and metal oxide particles, and a coating layer surface-coating each carrier core particle. The metal oxide particles have been subjected to a surface lipophilicity-imparting treatment. The magnetic carrier core particles have a resistivity of at least 1x10 ohm.cm, and the magnetic coated carrier has a resistivity of at least 1x10 ohm.cm. The magnetic coated carrier has a particle size distribution such that (i) it has a number-average particle size Dn of 5 - 100 mu m, (ii) it satisfies a relationship of Dn/ sigma >/= 3.5, wherein sigma denotes a standard deviation of number-basis particle size distribution of the carrier, and (iii) it contains at least 25 % by number of particles having particle sizes of at most Dn x 2/3.
