Patent number: 11767447Abstract: Provided herein is a topcoat composition comprising at least one fluorosilicone, a hydride-functional crosslinking agent, an infrared-absorbing filler, and at least one dispersant that is non-reactive with the hydride-functional crosslinking agent, by weight based on a total weight of the topcoat composition, wherein the topcoat composition has a degree of crosslinking between about 10 micrograms/hour/milligrams to about 20 micrograms/hour/milligrams. Further provided herein are methods of making the topcoat composition, as well as an imaging blanket and methods of reducing coating defects on a media coated using the imaging member.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2021Date of Patent: September 26, 2023Assignee: XEROX CORPORATIONInventors: Kenny-Tuan T.

Publication number: 20220049123Abstract: Provided herein is a topcoat composition comprising at least one fluorosilicone, at least one infrared-absorbing filler, and silicone dioxide present in an amount ranging from greater than about 5% to about 10%, by weight based on a total weight of the topcoat composition, wherein when the topcoat composition has a shear rate between about 2 s?1 to about 3 s?1, the topcoat composition has a viscosity ranging from about 1500 mPa/s to about 500 mPa/s and the shear rate does not decrease as the viscosity increases or decreases. Further provided herein are methods of making the topcoat composition, as well as an imaging blanket and methods of reducing coating defects on a media coated using the imaging member.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 12, 2020Publication date: February 17, 2022Applicant: XEROX CORPORATIONInventors: Kenny-Tuan T.

Patent number: 10160232Abstract: A media transport system for conveying sheets of media along a process path extending from a media-uptake zone and thereafter through a print zone. The system includes a transport belt for holding the sheets of media generally flat via vacuum for ink jet printing. The media transport system includes a seamed vacuum transport belt, and a platen supporting the belt. The belt comprises a partially-conductive coating having a surface resistivity of from about 101 to about 106 ohms per square on a polymeric substrate. The partially-conductive coating comprises a polyester and a conductive component such as carbon black, and optionally includes a plasticizer and a leveling agent. The polymeric substrate is either a thermoplastic or a thermoset material.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2017Date of Patent: December 25, 2018Assignee: XEROX CORPORATIONInventors: Scott J Griffin, David M Skinner, Eric Robert Dudek, Kyle B Tallman, Michael S Roetker, Jin Wu, James E Williams, Jason M LeFevre, Paul S Bonino, Carlos M Terrero
