Abstract

A process for the production of insulator-coated black particles, which comprises the steps of PA1 (1-a) dispersing particles of silica or a metal oxide in an alcohol-based solvent consisting mainly of an intermediate alcohol to obtain a dispersion of the above particles, PA1 (1-c) forming a titanium oxide coating of TiO.sub.2 on the surface of each of the particles whose surfaces have been activated in the above step, to obtain titanium oxide-coated particles, PA1 (1-d) calcining the titanium oxide-coated particles obtained in the above step in a reducing and/or nitriding atmosphere and thereby blackening the above titanium oxide coatings to obtain black particles, and PA1 (1-e) forming an electrical insulator coating on a surface of each of the black particles obtained in the above step, to obtain insulator-coated black particles; characterized in that the process includes a step of PA1 (1-b) adding an alkaline aqueous solution to the dispersion obtained in step (1-a) to activate a surface of each of the particles of a metal oxide.
