Patent ID: 10495994

Abstract:
A liquid developer containing toner particles containing a resin and a pigment, wherein the toner particles are dispersed in an insulating liquid, wherein the resin contains a resin H having a softening point of 100° C. or higher and a resin L having a softening point of 93° C. or lower, wherein the resin H is a composite resin HC of a polyester resin and a styrenic resin, and the resin L is a polyester resin LP or a composite resin LC of a polyester resin and a styrenic resin, wherein the composite resin HC and the composite resin LC are each a resin in which a polyester resin and a styrenic resin are chemically bonded via a dually reactive monomer, and a method for producing the same. The liquid developer of the present invention is suitably used in development or the like of latent images formed in, for example, electrophotography, electrostatic recording method, electrostatic printing method or the like.
