Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A toner for electrostatic image development having sufficient low-temperature fixing properties, and excellent heat resistant storage stability and crush resistance is provided. In toner particles containing at least a binder resin, the binder resin contains a polymer having a structural unit represented by a general formula (1), wherein R 1 , R 2 , and R 3 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, or an alkoxy group, or two adjacent groups of R 1 , R 2 , and R 3 combine to form —O(CH 2 ) i O—, where i represents an integer of 1 or 2, provided that at least one of R 1 , R 2 , and R 3 is an alkoxy group, or two adjacent groups combine to form —O(CH 2 ) i O—; and R 4 represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an alkyl group, a hydroxyl group, or an alkoxy group.
