Abstract
A process for making toner particles is provided. In embodiments, a suitable process includes adding a defoamer to an emulsion utilized to form toner particles. Utilization of the defoamer allows for a reduction in the overall aggregation/coalescence cycle time and slurry viscosity, while producing a toner with improved GSDs, low coarse and target circularities.
