Abstract
AbstractExcess enthalpy following annealing at various periods of time at Tg −10°C was measured by differential scanning calorimetry of electrophotographic toners, copolymers of styrene and butyl methacrylate containing carbon black. An approximate equilibrium enthalpy relaxation after annealing the pure copolymers for one month was 3.30 kJ/kg for a copolymer with 66.5% styrene and 2.72 kJ/kg for a copolymer containing 49.8% styrene. The rate of enthalpy relaxation was reduced by increasing the styrene content of the pure copolymer. The incorporation of a carbon black with high surface area reduces the rate of enthalpy relaxation, increasing in effectiveness with butyl methacrylate concentration.
