ABSTRACT:
An encapsulated toner for electrophotography is produced through a process, comprising: preparing a solution of a shell material resin set to an acidic (or basic) pH region; dispersing solid core particles in the solution to form a dispersion; changing the pH of the dispersion to a pH region, which is preferably a basic (or acidic) pH region, where the shell material resin is precipitated from the dispersion; and coating the solid core particles with the precipitated shell material resin. The shell material is preferably a proton-attracting basic (or dissociative acidic) vinyl-type copolymer and is dissolved in a pH-adjusted aqueous medium comprising water and a polar solvent, such as a lower alcohol. Thus, an encapsulated toner with excellent triboelectric chargeability and environmental characteristic is prepared without coalescence of capsules or formation of free shells.
