PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To produce an electrophotographic toner exhibiting an excellent improvement effect in all of storage stability, low-temperature fixability, offset resistance, environmental stability and environmental conservation, and for electrophotography by the production method Provide toner. Also provided are an image forming method and an image forming apparatus excellent in low-temperature fixability and offset resistance. In the production of a toner, various physical properties (softening point, glass transition point, chloroform insoluble fraction, etc.) of the resin composition constituting the binder resin are limited to a predetermined range, and the toner is being produced. In particular, the temperature at the time of melt kneading and discharging the binder resin is limited to a predetermined range, and in the image forming method and the image forming apparatus, the temperature at the time of fixing the toner is limited to a predetermined range. It is characterized by. [Selection figure] None |
