Abstract

A liquid developer for developing latent electrostatic images comprises (i) a carrier liquid comprising at least one component selected from the group consisting of a phenylmethyl silicone oil and a cyclic dimethyl polysiloxane, and (ii) toner particles dispersed in said carrier liquid, and images are formed by a wet-type electrophotographic image formation method using the liquid developer and thermally fixed to a transfer sheet.
