Toner for electrophotography or electrostatic recording

A toner comprising a toner particle containing a crystalline resin A, an amorphous resin B, and a release agent, wherein

• the crystalline resin A contains 30.0 mass % or more of a unit (a) represented by a formula (1) below, and
• the crystalline resin A is contained in an amount of 20.0 mass % or more and 80.0 mass % or less based on the mass of the toner;
• the amorphous resin B is contained in an amount of 5.0 mass % or more and 80.0 mass % or less based on the mass of the toner;
• the total content of the crystalline resin A and the amorphous resin B is 50.0 mass % or more based on the mass of the toner;
• when the toner is dissolved in tetrahydrofuran to obtain a tetrahydrofuran-soluble matter, the obtained tetrahydrofuran-soluble matter is dissolved in n-hexane to obtain a n-hexane-soluble matter, the obtained n-hexane-soluble matter is subjected to gel permeation chromatography (GPC) to isolate a component having a molecular weight of 5000 or less, and the obtained component is designated as component W,
• a content of the component W is 0.5 mass % or more and 20.0 mass % or less based on the mass of the toner;
• and
• a peak temperature of a maximum endothermic peak of the component W is designated as TmW (° C.), and when the endothermic peak of the toner is measured, a temperature of an endothermic peak derived from the component W is designated as TmT (° C.),
• the Tm W and the TmT satisfy
• 50.0≤TmW≤85.0, and
• −2.0≤TmW−TmT≤4.5,
• [in the formula (1), R1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, L1 represents a single bond, an ester bond, or an amide bond, and m represents an integer of 15 or more and 30 or less].
