The present invention provides an organic silicone fine particle for
latent electrostatic image developing toners, wherein the organic
silicone fine particle has a volume average particle diameter of 0.05
.mu.m to 6.0 .mu.m which is obtained by measurement based on Coulter
principle, and has a hemispherical polysiloxane cross-linked structure.
By mixing an appropriate amount of an organic silicone resin particle
formed in a deformed shape (a hemispherical shape) in a toner or
developer, the present invention prevents movement of the organic
silicone resin particle from surface functional sites, the movement
caused by a phenomenon such as detachment thereof from a toner surface or
rolling movement on the toner surface, by the effect of its shape, and
makes it possible to effectively achieve the expected function.
