A method of making toner particles, includes: mixing a latex emulsion, a colorant emulsion, an optional wax emulsion, and optional additives in a first reactor to form a slurry; discharging the slurry from the first reactor to a second reactor through a homogenizer; heating the slurry in the second reactor to form aggregated particles in said slurry; discharging the aggregated particles and slurry from the second reactor to a third reactor; heating the aggregated particles and slurry in the third reactor to coalesce the aggregated particles into toner particles; discharging the toner particles and slurry from the third reactor to a fourth reactor; cooling the toner particles; optionally classifying said toner particles to remove coarse particles; and optionally washing and drying said toner particles, wherein the first reactor, second reactor, third reactor, and fourth reactor are at least two different reactors.
一种制造墨粉颗粒的方法,包括在第一反应器中混合乳胶乳液、着色剂乳液、任选蜡乳液和任选添加剂以形成浆料;通过均化器将浆料从第一反应器排放到第二反应器;在第二反应器中加热浆料以在所述浆料中形成聚集颗粒;将聚集颗粒和浆料从第二反应器排放到第三反应器;在第三反应器中加热聚集颗粒和浆料,使聚集颗粒凝聚成墨粉颗粒;将墨粉颗粒和浆料从第三反应器排放到第四反应器;冷却墨粉颗粒;选择性地对所述墨粉颗粒进行分级以去除粗颗粒;以及选择性地洗涤和干燥所述墨粉颗粒,其中第一反应器、第二反应器、第三反应器和第四反应器是至少两个不同的反应器。
