(57) Abstract: An electrophotographic carrier of a two-component developer having high durability, and an electrophotographic carrier of a two-component developer having high durability even in combination with a toner containing a release agent. Provided are an electrophotographic developer, an image forming method, and an image forming apparatus. SOLUTION: In a carrier having at least a coating film composed of a binder resin and particles, the particle diameter (D) and the binder resin film thickness (h) have a relationship of 1 <[D / h] <10, An electrophotographic carrier in which the particles and / or the coating film is surface-treated with one or more selected from a titanate coupling agent, a fluorine-containing silane coupling agent, and acetoalkoxyaluminum diisopropylate. |
