ABSTRACT:
A dry toner composition for electrophotography includes a binder resin, a coloring agent and a mica-group mineral. The mica-group mineral provides the toner composition with lubricity and better flow capabilities. The mica-group mineral is wet-ground and may be coated with calcium stearate to reduce static electricity generated during operation of the printer, copier, or facsimile machine. The mica-group mineral and calcium stearate blend comprises ninety percent by weight or more of the mica-group mineral and ten percent by weight or less of the calcium stearate. The mica-group mineral or the mica-group mineral coated with calcium stearate makes up about zero-point-one to around fifteen percent by weight of the toner composition. The lubricant and flow agent formed by the mica-group mineral with or without the calcium stearate may be mixed into conventional dry toner as a post-additive. A mica-group mineral would be wet-ground to a very small particle size -for use in toners requiring smaller particle size and lower melting points for high speed printing operations.
