Abstract

Abstract Herein disclosed is a binder for dry toners which comprises a copolymer resin obtained by reacting 10 to 50% by weight of a polyester resin which has free carboxyl groups, whose acid value ranges from 10 to 100 and whose number-average molecular weight ranges from 1,000 to 5,000 and 90 to 50% by weight of a mixture of a vinyl compound having a glycidyl group and the an another vinyl compound, wherein the amount of the vinyl compound having a glycidyl group corresponds to the number of the glycidyl groups equal to 0.25 to 1.5 time that of the carboxyl groups present in the polyester resin. The binder for dry toners is used in the electrophotography technique.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 101 words
A binder for dry toners comprising a copolymer resin obtained by reacting 10 to 50% by weight of a polyester resin which has free carboxyl groups, whose acid value ranges from 10 to 100 and whose number-average molecular weight ranges from 1,000 to 5,000 and 90 to 50% by weight of a mixture of a vinyl compound having a glycidyl group and an another vinyl compound, wherein the amount of the vinyl compound having a glycidyl group corresponds to the number of the glycidyl groups equal to 0.25 to 1.5 time that of the carboxyl groups present in the polyester resin.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 101 words
A binder for dry toners comprising a copolymer resin obtained by reacting 10 to 50% by weight of a polyester resin which has free carboxyl groups, whose acid value ranges from 10 to 100 and whose number-average molecular weight ranges from 1,000 to 5,000 and 90 to 50% by weight of a mixture of a vinyl compound having a glycidyl group and an another vinyl compound, wherein the amount of the vinyl compound having a glycidyl group corresponds to the number of the glycidyl groups equal to 0.25 to 1.5 time that of the carboxyl groups present in the polyester resin.
