Abstract
A process for the preparation of carrier powder polymer coatings which comprises the supercritical polymerization of a monomer and surfactant in a supercritical medium.
Claims19
A process for the preparation of carrier particles containing a carrier core, polymer coating thereover, and a surfactant coating on said polymer, and which process consists essentially of admixing a carrier core with a monomer in the presence of a surfactant, and subsequently accomplishing a supercritical polymerization of said monomer in a supercritical medium.
A process for the preparation of developer compositions which comprises admixing toner comprised of toner resin and pigment with carrier particles obtained by a process, which comprises admixing a carrier core with a polymer/surfactant product that forms a coating on the carrier core, and which coating is obtained by a process which comprises the supercritical polymerization of a monomer and surfactant in a supercritical medium.
