Abstract
An electrophotographic dry toner having excellent properties with respect to charging, RH stability and fusing is made in a process in which the binder polymer is formed by suspension polymerizing a styrene-acrylic monomer mixture in the presence of a polyester-promoted colloidal silica suspending agent which is free of other hydrophilic polymers. The resulting polymer is melt blended with toner addenda such as a colorant and a charge control agent and the mixture is pulverized to form the toner composition.
