| Summary: | The field of the proposed invention relates to high intensity blending apparatus and processes, particularly for blending operations designed to cause additive materials to become affixed to the surface of base particles. More particularly, the proposed invention relates to an improved method for producing surface modifications to electrophotographic and related toner particles.
A toner and process for making the toner wherein each combined resin and colorant particle has an average size less than about 10 microns and wherein surface additive particles averaging less than about 40 nanometers in size average greater than two (2) percent of the combined weight of resin and colorant in the toner and wherein the Additive Adhesion Force Distribution percent value after 12 kilojoules of energy is greater than 40 percent. |
