Abstract: There are provided a coating material for electrical equipment, a method for manufacturing a coating material for electrical equipment, and a closed insulating device, capable of suppressing floating and moving around of foreign substances in electrical equipment. A coating material for electrical equipment 20 in an embodiment includes: a matrix resin 50 composed of an epoxy resin; a first filler 10 dispersedly contained in the matrix resin 50 and composed of whiskers having a semiconductive specific volume resistivity; a second filler 30 dispersedly contained in the matrix resin 50 and composed of particles having a semiconductive specific volume resistivity; and a third filler 40 dispersedly contained in the matrix resin 50 and composed of a planar, fibrous, or lamellar substance having insulating properties.

Abstract: A nonlinear resistive coating material 20 in an embodiment includes: a matrix resin 22 made of an epoxy resin which is cured by adding a curing agent thereto; ZnO-containing particles 21 dispersedly contained in the matrix resin 22 and made of a sintered compact containing ZnO as a main component; and semiconductive surface-treated whiskers 10 dispersedly contained in the matrix resin 22 and made of ZnO subjected to titanate coupling surface modification treatment.

Abstract: A roller for an image forming apparatus comprises: a core body having a shaft positioned in the center thereof, the core body being formed by solidifying a fluid around an outer circumference of the shaft; and a surface layer formed on a surface of said core body, the surface layer being made of hard rubber and having a uniform thickness over the surface of the core body. A mold for the roller, comprises: an inner surface whose section is the same as a section of the core body; a pair of half-split bodies, one end wall of each half-split body having a recess for clamping the shaft, other end wall of each half-split body having a injecting hole for injecting a core body forming fluid therefrom; and a stopper body serving as an aligning member having a through hole in the middle thereof for inserting the shaft thereinto, the stopper body further projecting a stopper on an outer circumference thereof for fitting the stopper into the injecting hole.
