Claim:
A toner comprising a colorant, optionally one or more components selected from the group consisting of surfactants, coagulants, waxes, surface additives, and optionally mixtures thereof, and copolymer encapsulated wax particles formed by contacting a wax dispersion, at least two monomers, a surfactant, and a stabilizer of the following formula: where R1 is hydrogen or methyl group; R2 and R3 are independently selected from alkyl groups containing about 1 to about 12 carbon atoms and a phenyl group; and n is from about 0 to about 20; forming copolymer encapsulated wax particles by emulsion polymerization of the at least two monomers to form a copolymer shell around a branched wax core; and, recovering the copolymer encapsulated wax particles, wherein the wax in the wax dispersion possesses side chains.
