Patent ID: 10386740

Abstract:
A resin binder composition for a toner, containing a polyester resin, which is a polycondensate of a polyethylene terephthalate, a carboxylic acid component, and an alcohol component, wherein the polyethylene terephthalate contains a polyethylene terephthalate having a IV value of 0.40 or more and 0.75 or less, and wherein the alcohol component contains an aliphatic diol having a hydroxyl group bonded to a secondary carbon atom having 2 or more carbon atoms and 4 or less carbon atoms in an amount of 40% by mol or more and 100% by mol or less, a method for producing a polyester resin contained in the resin binder composition, and a toner for electrophotography containing the resin binder composition. The resin binder composition for a toner of the present invention is suitably used in the toner for electrophotography usable in development or the like of latent images formed in, for example, method for electrostatic image development, electrostatic recording method, electrostatic printing method or the like.
