Patent ID: 8283097

Claim:
A toner for developing an electrostatic charge image, which comprises a binder resin and wax, wherein the binder resin comprises a copolymer prepared by using as a starting material, a (meth)acrylate monomer having a C 8-100 linear hydrocarbon group, and the content of the (meth)acrylate monomer having a C 8-100 linear hydrocarbon group is less than 2 wt % of the entire binder resin and—wherein the number of wax domains satisfying the following formula (1) among wax domains observed by its TEM analysis, is at least 85.0% of the total: (1) 0<A<500 (A: equiareal circle diameter (nm)) wherein said copolymer is present at the interface between the binder resin and the wax, and wherein said toner is produced by a process comprising supplying a monomer into an aqueous dispersion containing wax and a (meth)acrylate having a C 8-100 linear hydrocarbon group, carrying out the polymerization, followed by flocculation treatment.
