Abstract:
A toner includes toner particles. Each of the toner particles includes a composite core and a shell layer covering a surface of the composite core. Each of the composite cores is a composite of a toner core and foamable particles provided on a surface of the toner core. An amount of the foamable particles is at least 0.3% by mass relative to mass of the toner cores. Each of the foamable particles includes a base particle and a coat layer covering a surface of the base particle. The base particles are non-foamable. The coat layers include a foamable group. The foamable group is bonded to the surfaces of the base particles through a bond including a bond represented by formula “—O—Si—”.

Claim (Index 3):
The toner according to  claim 2 , wherein\n a second foaming amount is at least 80% by volume of the first foaming amount, the second foaming amount is a volume of gas collected from toluene-insoluble matter contained in 100 g of the toner, the second foaming amount is measured by a second method, in the second method, the toluene-insoluble matter is obtained from 1 g of the toner, a liquid at 30\u00b0 C. containing the toluene-insoluble matter is heated up to 120\u00b0 C. at a rate of 1\u00b0 C./minute, a temperature of the liquid is kept at 120\u00b0 C. for 30 minutes, a volume V 2A  of gas collected over the liquid during a period from when the heating is started at 30\u00b0 C. to when 30 minutes elapses after the temperature of the liquid has reached 120\u00b0 C. is measured, and a volume V 2  of gas is obtained by multiplying the volume V 2A  of gas by 100, and the second foaming amount is the volume V 2  of gas.
