Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0633509A1] The present invention discloses a toner for electrophotography. This toner comprises a surface tension reducing agent and a binder resin. Because the melt viscosity of the toner at a temperature of 200<o>C is 30 poises or more, a toner having an excellent void resistance can be obtained without a worsening of the fixability and blocking resistance thereof.
