Correction and Further Discussion of the Model and its Equation Proposed in Electrophotogr., 36 (4), 260(1997), and Answer for the Contradiction Reported by Takahashi et. al. (EIectrophotogr., 37(1), 74 (1998))

Abstract

In this journal (Vol. 36(4), 260 (1997)), we proposed a tribocharging model that the charging process was an equilibrium of transfer of charge between the toner and the carrier, where the opposite result to Takahashi et al. was obtained. To our result, Takahashi et al. reported the contradiction that our solving-process of the equation was full of mistakes in this louma1 (Vol. 37(1), 74. We, therefore, show our model and equation correct in further discussion and correction of the model. Concurrently, we point out some problems in their model and equation.
