Toner
A toner includes toner particle containing at least a strontium titanate particle on the surface of the toner particle, and the toner is a water-washed toner from which strontium titanate particle desorbable by water washing are removed by water washing. The water-washed toner contains the strontium titanate particle having a number average particle diameter of primary particle (D1) of 10 nm or more and 150 nm or less, and when the distribution of an Sr element in the water-washed toner in the depth direction is determined, (i) the Sr element abundance on the outermost surface x satisfying 0.00<x≤0.80, and (ii) the difference between x and xp “xp−x” satisfying 0.00<xp−x≤0.95, where xp is the maximum peak value (atomic %) of the Sr element abundance in the region from the outermost surface to 50 nm.
1. A toner, comprising:
a toner particle containing a binder resin and a colorant; and
a strontium titanate particle on a surface of the toner particle, wherein
when the toner is washed by water in order to remove a strontium titanate particle desorbable to obtain a water-washed toner, the water-washed toner contains the strontium titanate particle having a number average particle diameter of primary particle of 10 to 150 nm, and
when a distribution of an Sr element derived from strontium titanate in the water-washed toner in a depth direction is determined, 0.00<x≤0.80 when x (atomic %) is an Sr element abundance on an outermost surface, the distribution has at least one peak of the Sr element abundance in a region from the outermost surface to 50 nm, and 0.00<xp−x≤0.95 when xp (atomic %) is an Sr element abundance at a maximum peak in the region from the outermost surface to 50 nm in the distribution.
2. The toner according to claim 1 , wherein the toner contains the strontium titanate particle at 0.5 to 10.0% by mass.
3. The toner according to claim 1 , wherein a fixing rate of the strontium titanate particle in the toner is 55 to 95% by mass.
4. The toner according to claim 1 , wherein xp (atomic %) is 0.05≤xp≤0.95.
5. The toner according to claim 1 , wherein the strontium titanate particle contained in the water-washed toner has a number average particle diameter of primary particle of 25 to 45 nm.
6. The toner according to claim 1 , wherein a surface of the strontium titanate particle is hydrophobically treated.
7. The toner according to claim 6 , wherein the surface of the strontium titanate particle is hydrophobically treated with a fluorine silane coupling agent.
8. The toner according to claim 1 , wherein the strontium titanate particle has a volume resistivity of 2×10 9 to 2×10 13 Ω·cm.
