Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

There are provided ferrite particles in which Mn ferrite is used as the main phase and which contain Sr ferrite, where the degree of projections and recesses in the surface of the particles falls within a range of 2.5 to 4.5 μm, and the standard deviation of the size of grains appearing on the surface of the particles falls within a range of 1.5 to 3.5 μm. In this way, a coating resin is left on the surface of the particles even after long-term use and thus a decrease in the charging property is reduced.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. Ferrite particles in which Mn ferrite is used as a main phase and which contain Sr ferrite, wherein a degree of projections and recesses in a surface of the particles falls within a range of 2.5 to 4.5 μm, and a standard deviation of a size of grains appearing on the surface of the particles falls within a range of 1.5 to 3.5 μm. 2. An electrophotographic development carrier, wherein the surface of the ferrite particles of claim 1 is coated with a resin. 3. An electrophotographic developer comprising: the electrophotographic development carrier of claim 2 ; and a toner.
