Toner, developer, toner set, toner receiving unit, image forming apparatus, and image forming method

A toner comprising polyolefin, wherein

• the toner has an exothermic peak in a range from 40° C. to 70° C. in a cooling process of the polyolefin by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) after a first heating process of the polyolefin by the DSC, and
• the polyolefin does not have an exothermic peak in the cooling process of the polyolefin by the DSC after the first heating process of the polyolefin by the DSC, and has an exothermic peak in a range from 0° C. to 30° C. in a second heating process of the polyolefin by the DSC,
• wherein
• the polyolefin is a maleic acid modified polyolefin having at least a polypropylene block in a main chain and having a melting point within a range from 65° C. to 90° C.;
• a maleic acid modification rate of the maleic acid modified polyolefin with a polypropylene block in a main chain is within a range from 0.5 wt. % to 8.0 wt. %;
• and
• a content of the maleic acid modified polyolefin with a polpropylene block in a main chain in the toner is within a range from 2.1 wt. % to 30.0 wt. % further comprising at least one component selected from the group consisting of a release agent, a colorant, a charge control agent, an external additive, a fluidity improver, a cleanability improver and a magnetic material.
