Abstract
Electric field detachment of charged toner particles in the xerographic process is of central importance in the image development and transfer steps. The theoretical concepts for electric field detachment of single charged particles and particle layers are reviewed. Limitations on the applied force imposed by dielectric polarization and air electrical breakdown are considered. Measurements on the electric field detachment of toner layers in vacuum with different surface coverage are presented. The results for 21 µm toner suggest that the adhesion is described by an electrostatic image force model due to a nonuniform charge distribution on irregularly shaped particles.
