Electrostatic charge image developing carrier, electrostatic charge image developer, and image forming apparatus

Abstract

An electrostatic charge image developing carrier includes: magnetic particles; and a resin layer coating the magnetic particles and containing inorganic particles, in which an exposed area ratio of the magnetic particles is 0.1% or more and 4.0% or less, an average particle diameter of the inorganic particles is 5 nm or more and 90 nm or less, and a ratio B/A of a surface area B of the electrostatic charge image developing carrier to a plan view area A of the electrostatic charge image developing carrier is 1.020 or more and 1.100 or less when a surface of the electrostatic charge image developing carrier is three-dimensionally analyzed.
