TONER AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING TONER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18360391 titled 'TONER AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING TONER

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a toner comprising a toner particle with resin A (a vinyl resin with a sulfonic acid-type group) and resin B (a polyester resin). The analysis of the toner particle using time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry reveals specific relationships between the abundance of resin A and resin B at different depths from the toner particle surface.

  • Toner composition includes resin A (vinyl resin with sulfonic acid-type group) and resin B (polyester resin).
  • Analysis using time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry reveals specific relationships between resin A and resin B abundance at different depths from toner particle surface.
      1. Potential Applications

- Printing industry for high-quality prints - Manufacturing of toner cartridges for printers

      1. Problems Solved

- Ensures proper composition of toner particles for optimal printing performance - Helps in quality control during toner production

      1. Benefits

- Improved print quality - Consistent performance of toner cartridges - Enhanced durability of printed materials


Original Abstract Submitted

A toner comprising a toner particle comprising a resin A and a resin B; wherein: the resin A is a vinyl resin having a sulfonic acid-type group, the resin B is a polyester resin; and when in analysis of the toner particle using time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry, DA (nm) is defined as a depth at which an abundance of the resin A in a depth of 10 nm from a toner particle surface is a maximum, CA(%) is defined as an abundance of the resin A at the depth DA, CB(%) is defined as an abundance of the resin B at the depth DA, CA(%) is defined as an abundance of the resin A at a depth of 75 nm and CB(%) is defined as an abundance of the resin B at a depth of 75 nm, CA, CA, CBand CBsatisfy specific relationships.
