Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A carrier core material is represented by a composition formula M X Fe 3-X O 4 (where M is at least one type of metal element selected from Mg, Mn, Ca, Ti, Cu, Zn and Ni, 0<X<1), in which part of M and/or Fe is substituted with Sr and formed of ferrite particles, and in the carrier core material, a Sr content is equal to or more than 2500 ppm but equal to or less than 12000 ppm, the amount of Sr eluted with pure water at a temperature of 25° C. is equal to or less than 50 ppm, an apparent density is equal to or more than 1.85 g/cm 3 but equal to or less than 2.25 g/cm 3 and magnetization σ 1k when a magnetic field of 79.58×10 3 A/m (1000 oersteds) is applied is equal to or more than 63 Am 2 /kg but equal to or less than 75 Am 2 /kg.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A carrier core material which is represented by a composition formula M X Fe 3-X O 4 , wherein M is Mn and 0<X<1, in which part of M and/or Fe is substituted with Sr and which is formed of ferrite particles, wherein a Sr content is equal to or more than 2500 ppm but equal to or less than 12000 ppm, an amount of Sr eluted with pure water at a temperature of 25° C. is equal to or less than 50 ppm, an apparent density is equal to or more than 1.85 g/cm 3 but equal to or less than 2.25 g/cm 3 and magnetization σ 1k when a magnetic field of 79.58×10 3 A/m (1000 oersteds) is applied is equal to or more than 63 Am 2 /kg but equal to or less than 75 Am 2 /kg. 2. The carrier core material according to claim 1 , wherein the carrier core material contains a compound represented by SrFe 12 O 19 . 3. An electrophotographic development carrier, wherein a surface of the carrier core material according to claim 1 is coated with a resin. 4. An electrophotographic developer comprising: the electrophotographic development carrier according to claim 3 ; and a toner. 5. The carrier core material according to claim 1 , wherein 0.5<X<1.
