Patent ID: 8114564

Claim:
A process for producing a toner for electrophotography, comprising: (A1) forming a resin particle dispersion by emulsifying a first polyester-containing resin and phase inverting; (A2) aggregating resin particles contained in said dispersion to obtain an aggregated particles as core particles dispersion (1); (B1) melt-kneading a charge control agent and a second polyester-containing resin to form a melt-kneaded material, cooling and then coarsely pulverizing the material, and dispersing in an aqueous medium to obtain a composite fine particles dispersion (2) comprising composite fine particles, (B2) adding said composite fine particles dispersion (2) to said aggregated particles as core particles dispersion (1) to allow said composite fine particles to adhere onto said aggregated particles, thereby obtaining composite fine particle-adhering core particles; and (C) heating said composite fine particle-adhering core particles to obtain coalesced particles.
