Toner particle for high speed single component development system

A method of making a toner composition comprising:

• forming a slurry containing particles by combining:
• an emulsion containing a resin comprising a latex core resin including a base polymer resin and a latex gel;
• a release resin;
• optionally a wax dispersion in a surfactant;
• optionally a colorant dispersion;
• and
• one or more additional optional additives;
• adding an acid and a coagulant;
• homogenizing the slurry and aggregating the particles at a homogenization temperature;
• adding a latex shell resin to the to form a batch containing toner particles having a core and a shell;
• adding a pH adjustment agent to the batch to freeze growth of the toner particles and to adjust a pH of the batch;
• coalescing the batch by increasing the temperature to a coalescence temperature;
• monitoring the batch for particle circularity;
• and
• recovering the toner particles.

A toner composition comprising:

• toner particles comprising:
• a resin;
• an optional wax;
• and
• an optional colorant,
• wherein:
• the resin is a three latex system comprising:
• a latex core including a base polymer;
• a latex shell including a shell polymer;
• and
• a latex gel;
• the toner particles have a particle diameter of from about 7.3 to about 10 μm;
• the toner particles have a circularity of from about 0.945 to about 0.998;
• and
• the toner particles have a BET surface area of from about 0.8 m2/g to about 1.5 m2/g.
